I wondered if there could be multiple of the spiked eye things or if it was something there might be only one of.... because I thought it might be cool of there were multiples of them floating around Shuma...

Are you my roommate from college where that was his one trick on the Dreamcast?

Since I don't know what the Dreamcast is, I am going to guess no.

That plus when I was in college my state of the art computer was a Mac SE with 1 MB RAM and 40 MB of memory, with a black and white 9 inch 512 x 342 display.
 
Looked it up, I am sure I heard of it at the time - but was mostly out of gaming by that point (never deep in it), although I did have a N64, then a Wii.

I hope you have recovered from your near medical emergency.

If you want I can tell you all about the RCA Studio II, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Intellivision and ColecoVision systems...

Released in 1998. I owned this pretty much just to play all of Capcom's Marvel games from X-Men through Marvel vs Capcom 2.

It was basically the only way to play MvC2 and other arcade hits like Soul Calibur on console. Top tier performance at the time.

I equate SC and MvC2 to the Dreamcast.

Really, really digging Shuma. Anyone been able to achieve a 3-figure or even the elusive 4-figure grab with him yet? So far two is all I've been able to achieve, and two is the most I've seen reviewers do so far as well.

I think I'll eventually get a 3-figure grab, but I need to get used to his articulation a bit better first. I so do love new articulation schemes, and wow, this guy sure has that unlike any other figure we've gotten in quite a while. I'm not even sure he isn't the most unique articulation scheme in the history of Legends and probably a few other lines as well.

And the sega saturn did the same for X-Men: COTA through Marvrel vs Street Fighter. Some of the later games were also available on PS1 but the button inputs were notoriously delayed and kinda janky

What about using one of the "feet" to grab someone and smash them into the ground, but thereby using that as a sort of makeshift foot for more balance?
 
I had a friend who excitedly bought a Dreamcast and got to enjoy it for about 6-8 months before the PS2 stole all it's thunder. Then I started seeing them being sold used in Gamestops, but it was novel for about a year and a half as I remember it. I did have Soul Calibur for PS2 as I remember. I had X:COTA for PS1 and it ran like garbage, I was so happy when the Capcom fighting classics came out not long ago and they had totally fixed X-Men COTA to play properly. It was a favorite of mine as a kid, more so than ever Street Fighter vs. X-Men, even though it lacked Gambit, it was just so cool to have an all X-Men fighting game in the arcades in the 90s.
 
The thing I mainly remember Dreamcast for was a game called Tech Romancer. Despite the VERY misleading name (I think they want it to read as though it didn't have the space, but it totally had that space and that did not help), it was actually a fighting game where all the characters were riffs on giant robot anime mecha and stuff. There was a Gundam guy and a Mazinger guy, and an Ultraman/Evangelion guy... it was a lot of fun.
