Over at www.segaworldweekly.com someone on the message board posted this...
"Last week my brother and I went on a SEGA shopping spree. We went to 4 different places to find DC games to add to our little collection. At one place, Playmania, there sat on the DC shelf Panzer Dragoon Zwei for DC. It is was a Japanese import. I almost bought it....but I had to save my money for Shenmue 2 (which is also import). In beginning of Feb. I hope to go back and see if it is still there. However this store also sells Saturn games which I plan to buy next month. The question is: Should I buy the Japanese import of PD2 for DC or should I try to find an PD2 for Saturn? "
The message was then relayed to alwaysgame.com/bboard where "Sonic" (an employee within Sega) responded...
"It would be best to take this with a grain of salt. The Dreamcast did have Panzer Dragoon at one time, but it was a new version and not a remake of the 2nd game. The thing is, there was a Saturn emulator that was partially usable. But I talked with a few Japanese employees and they know nothing of it. You can consider this purely a rumor.

Two very interesting pieces of news there...Panzer Dragoon was in development for the DC and a Saturn emulator was made by Sega. Very interesting!
