Well I tried it and I cant say im overlythrilled  :P
Alot of of the oldies work fine but most of my never favorites are no-no's, since the newer games doesnt work with the Xbox mame version's I dont have much hope for any spectacular updates to DC Mame.

The Dreamcast has 16 megs of RAM. Now I can't remember why, but we only have 8 megs available to use for both the ROM and the emulator. Ice88 managed to get the Simpsons to run on the DC, which was quite a feat.

Oh, and its been mainly Reaper (Ian Michael), or Ice88 (forgot his other name) who have been doing the single game versions.

I'm not super worried about 99% of the mame games.... because I have a pc on my standup.

But in my driving cab I will have a 270 steering wheel... so I thought it might be great for some of the old driving games mainly.  

Then I also have light guns... so I thought it might be great for old light gun games (duck hunt, ect)

But I can plug my steering wheel into a PC also... just not the pc -> the arcade monitor... So I can see what games I actually like with the steering wheel... and decide if I want to see if I can get them working.
