I wonder how many games are compatible with this technique? Would be pretty cool to have a bunch of games selectable from a menu without swapping discs.

sdpadres69:
That's a great idea.  Swapping disks is the one of the negatives of the Dreamcast.  I definitely want to look at the SD card mod.  We have another Dreamcast that we have laying around that would be fun to mod.

Nephasth:
Awesome to see a 15 year old take interest in a hands-on technical project! Congratulations on the build and great memories! :applaud:

--- Code: ---This is a 'plug & play' SD/TF card reader that fits perfectly into the serial port of the Dreamcast.
It's all ready to use - just requires the Dreamshell SD loader disc, then you can run games and applications directly from an SD card!

Estimated Time of Arrival   

    USA: 7 - 15 days
    Europe: 10 - 20 days
    Other countries: 15 - 30 days

Looks like it's kind of hit or miss, and it's a small list of games tested.

Software to boot the DC.

This will probably make running other emulators on the DC much easier also.

That's my favorite part too.  Working with my son is awesome.  Congrats and well done!
