Modding for my dreamcast VA0 NTSC-U, what mods can I do? and some questions about the GDROM drive and alternatives

[Released: 1998] Born out of Sega's darkest hour to decide whether the company stays in the hardware business. Even though it didn't officially last long in the US, it was continued selling in Japan and spawned some great 2D Japanese shooters.

Modding for my dreamcast VA0 NTSC-U, what mods can I do? and some questions about the GDROM drive and alternatives

Post by /dreamcast »

Hello I obtained a Dreamcast some time back, and I am wanting to mod it, I already have a battery mod, but I like to do more. My dreamcast is a VA0 NTSC-U. I want to play games online but I don't know if it is worth it in 2019. Most mods I see are for VA1 systems, is there a big between VA1 and VA0? Are cd-rs for back ups really bad for the GDROM drive? I use them instead of disks that I have, if it is bad for the GDROM would a Serial to sd be a better option to preserve the GDROM drive? as my system is VA0 and as far as I know it can not have a GDEMU/USB GDROM.
