Hi, where could these demos be found?

[ShadowOfNoice]

@EmuNext I added a link to my homepage in the video description, you can find the binary there.

[abdigon]

is this animation, or running in real time?

[ShadowOfNoice]

It's all realtime effects.

[SuperHappyRobertTime]

can u play this without the dreamcast console?

[ShadowOfNoice]

Well, it runs on the VMU standalone ofcourse, but there is no way to actually transfer the binary to the VMU without having a Dreamcast.

Freaking awesome for 0.6 Mhz. :)

i dont think anything microsoft is original there all rip offs of others ideas!

i think dreamcast was the last true gaming machine nowadays there all well lets say gameplay isnt the #1 for the consoles and am sick of the ''its all about graphics people''

[Darkside2205]

@imydaking I don't know a single person who seriously values graphics over gameplay. and games compared to back then have done nothing but improve. Remember it wasn't too long ago when all sega was good for was side scrolling beat em ups

¿the VMU not have 200 MB of memory?

[teamascii]

My god! Now do a demo for the Chip-8, because that's the only low-capable platform you haven't done anything for.

Oh, and Brainf**k.

Behold the VMU and its ability to display up to EIGHT TRI-DIMENSIONAL TRIANGLES AT A TIME

@imydaking and the gamecube? it has one of the best gameplay like mario zelda and it has 3d graphics...

[FlashFireSix]

The VMU was an amazing and overlooked piece of technology, especially considering it was only a memory card.
