Sonic Blue VMU from the Sonic Dreamcast Bundle

Post by prismra »

Ok, what the hell? Apparently when you hook this VMU up to your Dreamcast it changes the BIOS background screen!

Does anyone else have one of these? Are there any others?

Here is the (now old) auction listing:

I have attached a pic of this thing in action. Thoughts?

It's a file that is loaded by the dreamcast, it's not because of the vmu.

There are 3 sizes you can use, each one consumes blocks, i picked the best quality so obviously it consumes more blocks.

So those VMUs just have that program pre-loaded?

yet, they are programmed like that in the factory; I believe there's a place somewhere that hosts all that different vmu stuff, but I can't recall the name
