It's much more than a memory card! For the first time, you can take parts of a game with you and play with them away from home. The VMU has its own microprocesor, screen, memory and controller and can act as a self-contained game machine. You can save information from your Dreamcast onto the VMU and modify/change/play with that data while you are away from your Dreamcast. For example, download characters from Sega Dreamcast games into the VMU, train them while on the bus, and then load them back...
Excellent memory accessory. Im very pleased with my VMU. It has the standard 128 units and 8-bit black and white LCD screen perfect for playing mini-games from from titles like Power Stone and Sonic Adventure.
Yes it works... ...with US consoles as well. I'm glad I was able to get a controller for this low price. It is new in package, and it works with saving games. I already got Lost Hope saved, a game which I've ordered from this site as well.
Memory card, and a bunch of other functions No, this is not as useful as a swiss army knife, but this is one of the BEST and the most creative memory card ever invented for a game console.
Not just a way to store saved games and game data, but also for mini games. too bad not that many vmu games are created. but fortunately, you can find home-brew vmu games on the internet.
Wow Still the most intuitive memory card out there. I was lucky enough to get a DreamCast recently with Shenmue and Sonic Adventure and while playing Shenmue I was delighted to find that the VMU displayed the keys I had to press to learn a new move. Truly great. =D
