Linking Dreamcast

(1/2) > >>

Chemixtry:
This may be a dumb question, but is it possible to link dreamcasts? I know nothing about the modem on them. I was thinking of a two person racing cab with a couple of dreamcasts linked that way each person wouldn't be looking at only a portion of the screen, they could each have their own. ???

Dave_K.:
Yes, there is actually a serial port in the DC that is used to hookup machines for "head to head" games.  There are only a handfull of games which actually use the DC link cable, but if its racing you want, then you are in luck, as Ferarri F355 Challenge has a head to head mode.

Lik-Sang has the Dreamcast "vs link cable" listed here:

Chemixtry:
Is there a list of those games?

gnateye:
ferrari 355
virtual on
aerodancing F

thats it

i want to get it just for virtual on, the cable is only like 15$

Chemixtry:
Too bad more games are not supported. It would be great to have a 2 player driving cabinet.  :'( (I saw an empty virtua racer cab on ebay for $25) Oh well.... Thanks for info guys.
