Some think that great games like nfl2k1 take up a lot of memory but with this baby, u'll never need another memory card again. i had one for n64 adn it was great, and the dreamcast will put it to use with mini games from power stone 2, and soul calibur. now i won't have to go buy another vmu if i want to save an nfl file, but keep a 50 noter.

I only have nine games, and this card only works well with six of them. I most recently purchased Gauntlet and it didn't regonize the card at all. When I called Midway they told me to call Interact, when I called Interact they were rude, told me that they don't know if it works because Gauntlet is new (its been out for at least a month now) and that I should just live with it not working with this game. They kept on pointing me to their website which is no help at all. I will think twice before ever purchasing an Interact product again.

Being made by Interact, one would think it would be good, right? WRONG! This is junk. It [messes up] games, such as my Shenmue file, three Phantasy Star Online Characters and other games. PC link works poorly. Take my advice and buy the Official Sega 4X Memory Card. Thats a lot better.

I bought this memory card and started putting all my saves on this. It worked fine until I put an NFL2K save on page 7. It seems whenever I put a large file on page 7 in corrupts it. But sides my page 7 problem it works perfecly and I highly recomend it. It also hooks up to a PC and you can download saves and stuff.

I really thougt this was going to be a good product.but i've had this card for a while, and i think it needs some jackhammering.I see why people like the vmu's;they work!This memory card might work for a month, and then stop working for two months, . . . My advice is to buy the vmu.

After buying just the memory card itself elsewhere, I picked up the CD and the Parallel PC cable here on the marketplace. The box says it'll only work with Windows 95 or Windows 98. I've tried it with Windows XP with compatibility mode turned on, but it comes up with an error when searching for the memory card. The unit works well on my old Windows 98 machine. I was able to transfer saved game files to and from the Dreamcast and the PC. I downloaded a save online and sent it to the Dreamcast, then I took another save and uploaded it to the PC. I stayed away from Page 8 since other said they have had issues with it.

Anyway if you're looking for the software drivers or information on the Parallel cable needed for this on the PC please visit my site, I also have the PDF manual for this. I thought that since it was so hard for me to find out info on this device that I'd share it to those looking for it too. Good luck! :) Here's my Dreamcast Massive Memory Card Site: [...]
