So SEGA suddenly decided they have standards now? Where was that concept when they released those crappy Mega Drive AtGames consoles?
Better late than never I guess, tho might have been wiser to do so before people got the feeling they were willling to make a quick buck on their legacy, quality be damned.

Honestly, besides just the pandemic I have been thinking they hit a wall on the wireless model. The last info we saw only had information about a wired controller. The VMU won't play nicely in a wireless setting and I'm guessing reteobit hasn't found a solution to that.Anthony817 wrote:Unfortunately no. They last told me over the past summer that they were way behind on the Dreamcast controller project because the manufacturing warehouse was understaffed and I think they said that the designs also have to go through strenuous certification processes since they are licensed controllers. So Sega wants to make damn sure they are up to their standards. So the pandemic has really set this project back way more than it already was to begin with.

Sure that will not be good for people who were wanting to have the controller ports for compatibility with additional VMU's, or the mic accessory but it would simplify things. I mean the DreamCon does it wirelessly already.
Or, do what Brook has done and build the damn memory card into the dongle portion. Have a screen on the controller to transmit the graphical data, but have the saves onboard the dongle so it is as compact as can be don;t have a port for VMU unlike those old Total Control Plus adapters did.
