It is an open-source Dreamcast emulator for Windows considered among the best in regards to accuracy. Its capable of running any Dreamcast game, even some none-commercial games. The graphics, sound, controllers and memory use a plug-in yet it can even play games burned to CD-ROMs. That said, initial setup can be quite tedious. 


Please note it has recently been resurrected by the original developer(s) and being rewritten in RUST, as such its (v2.x)  currently not as feature-rich as the previous version.


Note
