Having never played Ooga Booga online - partly because it was never released outside of the US - I'm intrigued to see how this predominantly multiplayer title compares to modern battle arena style games. NFL 2K1 I'm not so keen on, simply because I prefer the proper version of football; you know, the one where players kick a ball around with their feet? I'm sure those who like chucking an egg about will be much more enthusiastic.
Either way, it's great to see more games brought back online - who knows what's next? Massively multiplayer online Daytona USA 2001? Yes please! You can keep abreast of Shuouma's great work by following him on Twitter here; and make sure you keep up to date with the Dreamcast's burgeoning online gaming scene, and find out more about DreamPi by visiting Dreamcast Live.
Update
As of 26th January 2018, Ooga Booga is back online! We'll be getting involved with some online games soon via DreamPi, but in the meantime check out Pcwzrd13's video below:

I talk to Shuouma pretty regulary and he's heavily implied that NBA2k2 and all the other sega sports games will be rolling out at a roughly bi-monthly pace as he keeps working on them, all using dreampi. I'm not a huge fan of NFL either(although I did play it a ton as a kid considering how popular it is here in the states) but I'm REALLY excited about NBA. Bringing my custom team online and dunking on my boys will be so nice...
Excited for Ooga Booga! NHL and NBA will be awesome also :D what a time to be alive!
