Their are a few out for other consoles which include the sources, so why not a Dreamcast port?

Whats the purpose of having it on the dreamcast. I can understand if there was one for computer because you can do your homework and I can also understand one for the psp and other portable devices because you can take them to class with you. But one for the dc doesnt make a lot of since, its not really worth it just for the games if that is the only reason that you want one.

That's you opinion. Someone could just as easily say "why have an SNES emulator? It's not worth it just for the games...".

Basically, a good deal of emulation is done for emulation's sake. IIRC the Dreamcast still holds the title for most emulated systems on a video game console, and we'd like to keep it that way.

All that being said, I've seen one or two and they aren't extremely portable. We'll see.

i think Quzar was implying that he might have a go in porting a Ti calculator emulator to the dreamcast

u wanna put that calculater stuff on your DC? in my opinion at first i thought for acalculater its gaming abilities and grafx are great then later i thought in this day and age if a tiny cell phone can have those good grafx and is small why not a TI-83, 84, 85... i wouldnt fool with it unless the emu is for a handhrld or cell. Maybe a nomad or a NGPC?
