Item Description
Most fishing games ask for patience. Sega Bass Fishing asks for reflexes. It began life in Japanese arcades in 1997 as Get Bass, built around a rod-shaped controller with a working reel and a line that ran into the cabinet, tightening and slackening as the fish fought back. Sega was never chasing a quiet afternoon on the lake. It was chasing the jolt of a strike, the scramble to keep a bass on the hook and the rush of hauling a lunker up to the boat while the clock ticks down.
The arcade structure is a brilliant little pressure cooker. Each of the four original stages is set at a different time of day and gives you a time limit and a target weight to land before you can move on, with every catch sorted into classes from Small One up to Huge. Picking a lure, reading where the bass are holding, twitching the bait to tempt a bite and then working the fight without snapping the line becomes a surprisingly tense loop, and the final stage raises the stakes by letting you land only one fish, drawn from the biggest and most stubborn in the game.
The Dreamcast version is far more than a straight conversion. Four new stages join the arcade's four, and each can be fished under different seasons, weather and times of day, so the same water plays differently from one session to the next. A practice mode lets you learn each spot without a clock, and the tournament mode is where the longer hooks sink in, since that is where additional lures are unlocked. The game was designed to pair with Sega's Fishing Controller, a rod-and-reel peripheral that turns every cast and hookset into a physical motion, and Next Generation's reviewer told readers to buy the game and “pick up a fishing controller while you're at it.” It is just as playable on a standard pad, with casting handled on the analog stick.
It sold well and became a signature oddity of the early Dreamcast years, the game people were surprised to love. That success launched a small franchise, from WOW Entertainment's Sega Bass Fishing 2 on the Dreamcast to Sega Bass Fishing Duel on PlayStation 2 and an enhanced Wii version, and the Dreamcast port was later revived in the Dreamcast Collection, with a new port even turning up inside Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Those revivals are fun, but the original disc on the console it was built for is where the loud, bright, wonderfully unserious spirit of Sega's late-'90s arcade era comes through best.
