Hidden VMU

The DreamCast was so advanced that even the memory cards were games consoles in their own right. Certain games on the Sega would send an 8 bit game to the memory card and you could play a dot matrix side scrolling game similar to that of game boy game.

When the Memory card was plugged into the game controller the screen would be used to display game stats. The memory card was refered to as a VMU. It would keep record of your game progress and allow you to play games retro style.
