The sequel to the arcade and Dreamcast title SEGA Bass Fishing, this game features deep-sea fishing where you can catch must more than just bass. The game offers 15 types of fish, 5 different locales, and 16 types of lures with many more unlockable. By catching fish, you earn item cards with equipment, boats, accessories, fish and artifacts for an aquarium.

There is also a network feature where you can log on to SEGA's Marine Fishing webpage to compete in fishing competitions. Play in arcade mode, free fishing mode or the more involved original mode (which features several mini-games), and view your rewards in aquarium mode. The original mode was not included in the arcade version, and the mini-games train different techniques (luring, casting, fighting...)

Instead of porting the console versions, NASCAR SimRacing was independently developed with a focus on more realism. EA revamped the entire NASCAR physics engine, introducing a much requested "drivable oversteer" feature that allows the player to drive out of oversteering situations. A full career mode is finally included for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Busch Series, and NEXTEL Cup Series, all with fully compliant rulesets. Graphics and sound were also updated to feature full support for advanced vertex and pixel shading and 3D spatial sound support.

This version features 23 tracks and multiplayer support for up to 43 players in the same race.

NBA 2K2 is the third game in SEGA's NBA 2K series of basketball simulations. This is the first game in the series to be released for multiple platforms (instead of solely for the Dreamcast). In addition to updated graphics, rosters, arenas, team uniforms, and signature moves for the 2001-2002 season, the 2K2 edition now supports zone defenses (a new NBA rule where you have to choose to play man or zone defense), intercepting of passes, and making adjustments and actions in mid-animation.

There are detailed statistics for each team and player, for a year, the current season or an entire career. The game modes include Exhibition, Season (play a full season along with management), Franchise (more than one season), some arcade street modes and the option to create custom tournaments.

A ninjitsu master trains three children: two brothers, Kazuma and Sho, and his own daughter Aya. As they grow up, the oldest boy, Kazuma, becomes obsessed with power and demands to learn the sacred techniques of absolute power. The master refuses, and Kazuma leaves, vowing revenge.

Many years later, long after the master's death, Kazuma returns with an army. He plots his revenge by kidnapping Aya and thus luring Sho into his hideout. As Sho, you must defeat Kazuma and rescue Aya.

Shinobi Legions is a side-scrolling action game, similar to Shinobi III. Sho's primary weapons are a sword and a finite number of shurikens, both of which are activated with separate buttons. Sho can learn nearly a dozen sword abilities (spinning slash, downward slash, sword shielding, etc.) by collecting powerups scattered throughout levels. There are also "Fire Dragon" powerups that act as single use ninja magic attacks that damage all enemies onscreen, which is the only ninja magic available to Sho. The 9 levels range from fighting in the jungle to climbing Mount Fuji, where Sho will encounter mostly enemy ninjas and a few animal enemies (eagles, snakes, etc.). Shinobi Legions is the only Shinobi game for the Saturn and is notable for its use of live-action cutscenes and its use of blood (the first in the series).
