Hi Guys,

I got a org jap NTSC dreamcast a year ago, not been chip, can I play any copy games? Any good site can show me how to use my dreamcast to play copy games or watch movies.

Here a few thing you should know:

Dreamcast systems don't need mod chips for back ups. The only somewaht useful modchip for a Dreamcast is to play imports but even then you can always download the Utopia boot disc.

We don't post here where to get games. I actually don't know many places that still have DC games either.

If you want to watch videos on your Dreamcast check out the following:

It may look complicated at first but it's very easy.

Thank You for your help, I got some questions to ask, I found a web site can download DC Patches & Trainers, what do you use it for, because the files is very small and is a zip file, when I unzip it, I got ppf, nfo and diz files, What do I use it for?

Sorry for my stupid questions, but please help me a bit.

Thanks a lot

These patches are meant for ripped games released by groups such as Echelon, Kalisto, Hooligans and others. Unless you downloaded one such game and have the image on your harddisk, the patches/trainers will be useless to you. (Sometimes you can copy a burned game CD back to the harddisk and patch it, but it requires extra work to create and burn a new selfboot image.)
PPF files are the actual patches; NFO and DIZ files are plain text files you can open in Notepad. They're meant for you to read.
