It's tasty. :D I need to get a like.. 128 gig USB stick so I can just have the whole library available at once, it's like 90something gigs... --- End quote --- Can you still play original disc games with that mod? I like those types of mods as long as you can still play the original games. |

Negative, sir. Entire optical drive is removed. Same with the GDEMU (the good sd-card replacement for the Dreamcast, which I also have). I would also prefer to have it both ways and be able to use the original games too, but I understand how it's not entirely possible on old systems that don't have HDDs. They tried with the old, serial port attaching SD reader for the DC, but that one kinda sucked (I have it too). At least with the GDEMU it was a plug-and-play, so if I want to (and ever get rid of my 2nd one) I can just plug the GDROM back in. But for now, I have a spare FZ-1 and a secondary Dreamcast to play original games if I want to. I figure eventually I'll stop caring (though I'll keep my original games because I'm a crazy collector) |

That disapoints me, but I guess it doesn't matter because I just can't seem to find a good deal on a 3DO in the first place. :( |

There's also the DCIO in research from the same people who are making the PSIO, but considering people are starting to call PSIO vaporware I dunno if we'll ever see it. --- Quote --- --- Quote --- I would also prefer to have it both ways --- End quote --- There's so many off-colored jokes I could say here. --- End quote --- Heh yeah... it was pretty open-ended I suppose. |
