This might be one of the coolest crossovers in retro hardware right now.
8BitMods’s VMUPro is, at its core, a modern take on the classic Dreamcast VMU. A memory card. For a Sega console.
And yet, here we are talking about Game Boy multiplayer.
The VMUPro doesn’t just act as a memory unit, it runs emulators. That means it can play Game Boy titles directly on the device itself. A Dreamcast VMU-style accessory… running Nintendo’s legendary handheld library. That alone is already wild.
Now with upcoming wireless link support, two VMUPros will be able to connect and emulate the classic Game Boy Link Cable experience, completely cable-free.
So let that sink in:
A Sega Dreamcast memory card form factor.
Playing Nintendo Game Boy games.
With wireless link functionality.
Retro boundaries are officially meaningless. And we’re here for it.
My VMU Pro was delivered last week. It’s a cool thingie 😉
It has 3 emulators: one for GB/GBC, one for NES and one for SMS/GG
