Having Valgas & Kraken playable would be way more awesome. Wouldn't be Action Replay codes just be number of arranging the files & Hex stuff over. I wonder if anything on the PSP files side has anything familiar as the Dreamcast ones.

My hunch is that the psp files wouldn't be compatible with the dreamcast, you'd be looking at moving not only graphics and animation data over but data like moves and hit boxes and damage dealt. No way are the graphics in powervr format, and no way is the data in sh4 compatible form in the psp edition.

Too bad never got around playing the PSP version. All the fuss over Valgas & Kraken becoming playable in the second one what I wanted to play.

Apparently there is a way to select Pharoh Walker as your character in the arcade version, he'll load on the different stages but his moves are cpu controlled... still cool!
