Dreamcast Live's VS Link Cable |
Tom Charnock playing with himself...the loser that he is. |
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out Tom's previous article on the Dragoncast VS cable here.
Fortunately for us, the barrier to entry has finally been lifted thanks to the geniuses over at Dreamcast Live. Not content with releasing only the Dreampi (a method of reviving dial up Dreamcast games' online modes), Luke Benstead, Pcwzrd and his team have finally managed to engineer a solution of their own for playing the VS Link games locally.
Their third party cables went on sale yesterday and currently go for $40 plus shipping. Admittedly, it may seem a little expensive for a cable, but compared to the other options, it's a bona-fide bargain.
If you're interested in making a purchase, head on over to their online shop where you can also pick up the aforementioned Dreampi. I've heard through the grapevine, they're currently hard at work attempting to bring back servers for NFL 2K1, WSB 2K2, Speed Devils Online and possibly even Outrigger. Keep up the good work guys. The DCJY team salutes you!Compatible VS Link Titles
