Thanks! I like my Dreamcast a lot.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Dreamcast is great. Especially if you have a CD burner

I'd consider an optical drive emulator like GDEMU so you can store your entire collection on an SD card. This ensures your physical collection lasts longer and loading times are shorter as well.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Much better idea, I don't guess I was aware of it

[–] LowtierComputer@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

The physical discs won't last much longer.

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmy.autism.place 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Uh…I don’t use CD burners.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Might be worth looking into an external, unless you are a physical collector. You do you friend

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmy.autism.place 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Thanks. Yeah, I’m a physical collector.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dig it. My only other advice, is you could use backups to keep your originals in good condition, but I'm not sure if CD-Rs are more rough on the laser

If you ever have the opportunity, I would be interested in seeing your collection

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmy.autism.place 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Dreamcast or in general?

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In general. I enjoy all retro gaming stuff

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmy.autism.place 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Dreamcast, Saturn, 2600, Genesis, Nintendo 64, PlayStation 1, Odyssey^2^, Xbox, SNES, and NES. I own a lot of systems.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Hell yeah. I look forward to seeing more of your posts

I miss mine so much, my dimwit brother threw it away like 2 decades ago along with our Megadrive, and I occasionally remember that and get sad all over again
