The fucking cable was on the bottom of the controller, as if the console is going to be behind you or something :S. Not to mention it had a dumbass memory card that you stuck on the top of the controller. Like really, dumb ideas were utilized just for the sake of being 'original' or 'different'. |
lmfao.. "it's a fucking stupid console" because of the cord? wow...
The VMU was probably the best accessory for the Dreamcast...
It acted as an info screen for games like say Resident Evil, instead of opening up the options screen to see your inventory, it was already on the VMU, just look down on the controller, it showed stuff like Ammo, Health, Weapon Etc.
when you popped it into your Steering Wheel it would give you a digital read out of your speed and such.
Also taking it on the go was great, leveling up, getting money or extra hidden items while you were away from the console, then pop it in to the Dreamcast and all the items and such would be in game..
Also it wasn't "Stuck on the top of your controller" but actually slipped inside of it, and you didn't have to use it if you didn't want to, there were none Screen Memory units.
