Ok nothing will beat the gold standard that was Sega Dreamcast Fishing games with the rod controller that had a rumble pack for vibration. I had a buddy make a wooden box we could attach a bungie cord to give it more feel when you “pulled” the fish out of water (the box had cutouts to hold beer cans too). Simply the best way to virtually fish

Although the concept of it being in a Sonic game was pretty silly (and an entire path to play through no less) and the character is really annoying, I heard that even the Big the Cat fishing mode in Sonic Adventure (originally on the Dreamcast) was even good, gameplay-wise. I have played it but I don't have much experience in other fishing games to compare it to. The only other fishing (mini-)game I have for comparison is the fishing in the 3D Zelda games. Between the two I think I prefer Zelda, though.

It was ok but the ocean/sea/bass fishing games were amazing. I really just want a compatible rod controller. I dont even like fishing IRL.
