8BitMod's VMU Pro: Beyond Dreams

The VMU Pro from 8BitMods is not just living up to its name โ€“ it's exceeding expectations. This updated version of the Dreamcast memory card offers more storage, a color screen, and the ability to play MP3s.

But perhaps most exciting for classic gamers is its capability to run Doom, an iconic first-person shooter from id Software. The video footage shows impressive performance with better framerate than the SNES and 32X combined.

Next-Generation Retro Gaming

This VMU Pro joins other products from 8BitMods aimed at enhancing Dreamcast enthusiasts' experiences, such as the VM2.


Is the VMU Pro just a nostalgic curiosity, or do you think it offers enough value to justify its cost in today's gaming landscape?

Almost everything on 8bitmods website is out of stock and this isn't listed yet. How often do they restock and does anyone know the price?
