Games supporting TWIN STICKS?

The subject says it all.

I have a Saturn, a Dreamcast, the fabled Saturn twin sticks and a converter to use them on the DC. (Yeah, I'm a lucky SOB, no need to comment, I know that already)

So ... What games are out there for either system that can be played with the twin sticks? Other than Virtual On, I only know of Mobile Suit Gundam on the Satty. Are there others? Does Gungriffon II work with twin sticks? How about tank-style games or stuff like that?

To my knowledge the only saturn games using the twin Stick on DC are VO and Gundam Side Story I, II, III.

Anybody else...?

My brain might've just made this up, but I'm sure I remember reading that Outtrigger supports them. Don't quote me on that..

do non compatible games recognize it as a normal controller to some extent?

cherok: I believe so, yes. I remember once booting up a Saturn game forgetting I still had the twin sticks plugged in instead of the normal controller, and one of the sticks functioned just like the normal D-pad. The other, IIRC, didn't have any effect.

Anyway, the other night I got a copy of Gundam Side Story 0079 for the Dreamcast, gonna try and see if that works with twin sticks (although I haven't heard of it)...

Outtrigger, huh? Gonna have to check that out, too. Thanks all

You should try out Soul Calibur, it works with pretty much everything.

Sure, Presley, I can just see it before my eyes... Controlling a huge-ass sword with tank-like controls... Yeah, that just screams "efficient." Hehe.

Tank..... Tank?

Hmm, I must try whether Assault Rigs responds to the twin sticks...

I wish there were a really cool TANK game on the Dreamcast.
