Treamcast VS Dreamcast

[Jungle-Cat]

When a load a game using Utopia, does it act as like normal? ie. it all saves and runs fine?

[JKKDARK]

Yes it will run normal and the saves will work.

regarding the versions of utopia, all of them are more or less the same, except one of them can force games to boot an a vga monior for improved definition.

Can't you buy refurbished Dreamcasts from Play-Asia? I'd go with that option.

[Jungle-Cat]

No, they never have stock. But they sell controllers and VMUs for less than 10 bucks each! and the postage is only 10 bucks.

So i might buy a controller so I have a full set of controllers.

It was only on early 2006. There are not units anymore.

Any of you guys got a link to a good guide on how to make (SB) games? I have 2 USA games I'd like to make SB. All i've found is

But it is kind of confusing and doesn't explain things.

I'd like to make a SB copy of that on a multisession disc (for the purpose of adding roms after... wel im sure you get it without me explaining). Would the procedure of that be the same as making a commercial game SB? I do not want to have any menus or anything (as suggested down the bottom of the SNES4ALL page, to make it SB)

Well I might as well just ask here, tell me if I should make a new thread.
I'm wanting to get the Bleem! games, I've got Gran Turismo, but would like MGS and Tekken 3. Can anyone point me in the right direction?. Also about the bleem games, I read you need to sacrifice a memory card (for it be formatted for playstation), does that mean 1 memory card for all Bleem games, or 1 memory card per game?

If you're using Bleemcast beta, you can run many games but you will see a lot of graphic/sound problems. Also you can't see FMVs and you can't load/save games.
If you get the official Bleemcast (there are 3: for MGS, GT2 and T3), you can run only the specific game, and you can save/load the game and you will get better graphics than on the PlayStation console. And yes, you need to sacrifice a memory card for every Bleemcast unit.

I made an order with play asia, getting 2 cheap-o memory cards. Damn; I should have got 3! But I probably don't mind not having MGS, I've already played it countless times through on my Playstation. I use to play PS so much it even broke down! So I got another one. Oh the memories...

Also I won that Dreamcast off of ebay, should be picking it up in the next day or so I presume.

I've just noticed that some of my CDI's of Dreamcast games are over 700mb. Do I have to trim them down some how?

[dcdood]

Try erasing some things, make it at least 660mb, someone said they had a problem with a cd Maxed out at 700mb exactly. it reaches to the CD"s end and may not be readable
