The VMU revisited

[XDelusion]

There are a ton of 2600 classics I could see running on this..

surely the vmu isnt that powerful ?

Right... makes sense. Of course, thinking about the VMU only version, you could set the position of your ships, then it goes to a blank display and waits for you to connect to another VMU. At that point, the VMU would show your hits on the other guy. That would work.

The only thing is the vmu goes though batteries very quickly (unless you wire AAAs to it), I think and dreamcast version would be more useful.

Also if you have 2 vmus directly plugged into each other you can easlly see the other screen

Yes, unless you were on the road or something.

Which is why I said wait until you've set up the pieces and then blanked the screen before you connect the VMUs to each other. At that point, seeing the other display won't be an issue. Your display will show your hits against the other guy's boats.

Both a VMU only and a DC version would make a nice homebrew project.

Oh wow, I made this video years ago. Nice that it still grabs peoples attention.
