How many fishing games are anyway?

I think there's three lol. Sega Marine Fishing, Sega Bass Fishing, and Sega Bass Fishing 2. Sega Marine fishing and sega bass fishing are the 2 best ones, but all are supposed to be good.

Name rings a bell.

Only game I've played is SEGA Bass Fishing (maybe the sequel, can't remember).

Hello, I have 3 of teh four Fishing games for the DC, Certainly pick up SEGA BASS FISHING 2 and MARINE FISHING. These two are a lot of fun and challenging too to master. SBF 2 you can fish all parts of the lakes and move to the next lake you can also cruz in your boat and customize your boat and player. It is a slow-fast paced game but it is rewarding when you know your Lake and know your lures Pick that one up, it is not expensive too! Sega Marine Fishing is fun when you get deep into it. Collecting and unlocking fish and beating scores is hard to do but with the training sessions that helps. The SEGA FISH ROD is the best from what I know(VERY RESPONSIVE), I have never used another though. Pick em up and have a blast.

I got my Fishing Rod for freakin' $5. That's sweet.

But yeah, I've never regretted buying anything for a DC. Fishing rod is no different, it's worth the money.

I paid $25 (CDN) for it. Boxed and brand new. The box had a little wear (I suppose it was stored in the back somewhere) but the controller is new and had it's plastic and manual. I don't really care if I paid more than I could have gotten it online for, because shipping to Canada=

and I really liket he store I bought it from.

Oh yeah the fishing controller

I've only played Sega Bass Fishing 2, which is a very nice game. It's cool being able to explore the lake and having a truly relaxing gaming experience. Even though catching a big one can be difficult at times.
I wonder if Sega will be making fishing games for the Revolution

Doesn't the fishing rod controller use tilt technology?

To this day Sega Marine Fishing remains one of my all time favorites!

I don't know if it can notice tilting, but it does have a motion sensor which can sense movement.

The fishing controller senses two types of movement, a forward casting motion and a side to side jerk (like me!). These are actually analog signals, but they're not very fine, so proper control of anything much but a fishing pole would be wonky.

...word is bondage...

I played Real Fishing | Wild and I really enjoyed the game. Even my brothers and stepdad all pulled up beer and cookies and played it too... weirdos.

I wanna get Sega Bass Fishing and Maring Fishing!

Marine is the best I've played, but I haven't tried Bass Fishing 2.

Reel was painful to play. Probably too realistic, it was boring as hell and the controls seemed wonky, even with the fishing controller.

Bass Fishing is still the best I think, even though that annoying bug with it taking forever to continue.

Marine was okay but the controls were a bit too simplified and it's a bit too "cartoony" for me.

Bass Fishing 2 was a terrible, wasted opportunity. They really screwed that one up.

Reel Fishing Wild is interesting once you get into it, more of a sim than a fun game.

Not fishing games but try Crazy Taxi with it (you'll be very tired after) & Soul Calibur, I feel compelled to mention this in most fishing rod threads
