It still feels so surreal... Suddenly two(?) people are making more progress in a few weeks/month than anyone in 23 years before. I salute you, gentlemen.

Wow! Amazing! Just think if the Dreamcast just lasted a little longer. Things could of been different, the Dreamcast can do a lot of amazing stuff.

Hello, this is my channel. Let me know if you'd like to see anything else tested in this (over) popular game or any others. I can also post the original high bitrate videos on Gamepilgrimage.com as well.

I've wondered if Re3 could be used for a DC Port for a few years now.

Yes, please do more testing with games from the time. Would be very interesting.

Question:
Would it be possible to use the serial port as a "hard drive" to store textures or game geometry, since the Dreamcast processor can access the optical drive and the serial port in parallel?
