I recently acquired two Godzilla VMUs. One of them works fine, and I can play the godzilla minigame. The second one appears with an error message "ゲ-ムガ ア リ マ セ ソ" which I've been told means "There is no game". Apparently the Godzilla game was somehow deleted from the VMU. Is there any way to copy the Godzilla minigame from the working VMU to the broken one? No matter how labor intensive.. or is it impossible any help would be great thanks. BTW I do have a dreamcast I just would have to find/buy cords to do whatever it is you guys suggest.

I'm not sure if this is the game you are talking about, but if it is all you have to do is go on this link using a DC web browser and download it to the vmu.

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
So I do have to buy the modem and all that for my dreamcast then? If that file is already on my VMU should I be able to copy it to the other one??

It's worth a try to copy it but I've never copied vmu games before because I only have 1 offical vmu.

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
I think its worth the try, but I think not, the only minigami that came with a vmu that I ever managed to copy is the one in the red wrestling vmu. all the others failed (haven't tried the godzilla one, coz I haven't got it yet)

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
I think so, when you highlightem, the copy option is greyed out & there's a msg that says file can't be copied (in the same way that its with the pso files)

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
ah i see mazonemayu. then you should be able to copy it using a VMU tool. i can never remember its name, but it lets you remove the copy protection that some save files have. i'm pretty sure i found it at blue swirl.

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
Gary B, I'm also from michigan, in Ann Arbor. I looked a little closer, and I did see the modem.. is im assuming it's fine to attach broadband to this, and not dial up. I guess my next step is finding my controller and cords for the DC. I'll let you know if it copies

Re: Godzilla VMU problem/question
In that case, get Dream Explorer. Then you can copy everything to another VMU. Even PSO files. It can be found at blueswirl.
