For those of you finding it hard to give up your VMUs... |

The Dreamcast's Visual Memory Unit was one of the most novel and |
|
under-used gimmicks in all of console gaming history, one making |
|
a belated (and unofficial) comeback with this iPod Nano |
|
modification. |
|
To create, you crack open the VMU, insert the iPod Nano, patch |
|
up a few bits of wiring (for the headphone jack) and you're good |
|
to go (more detailed instructions on the weblink below). |
|
While Apple purists may cringe at the bulky lines and gaping |
|
seals of the VMU, in this case we don't give a damn what Apple |
|
purists think, as this one's for all the Sega hardware tragics |
|
in the house, who just want to listen to their Jet Set Radio |
|
soundtracks in style. |

I actually went to the trouble of getting a VMU -> serial cable |
|
a few years back to let me put homebrew on VMU's. Best I managed |
|
was a version of space invaders I found. |

Is it possible for you to help explain more to these things for |
|
us because we are very interested in this information? |
