       For those of you finding it hard to give up your VMUs...

       [glow=red,2,300](Story originally spotted by Gamerdads Forum

       The Dreamcast's Visual Memory Unit was one of the most novel and
       under-used gimmicks in all of console gaming history, one making
       a belated (and unofficial) comeback with this iPod Nano
       modification.
       To create, you crack open the VMU, insert the iPod Nano, patch
       up a few bits of wiring (for the headphone jack) and you're good
       to go (more detailed instructions on the weblink below).
       While Apple purists may cringe at the bulky lines and gaping
       seals of the VMU, in this case we don't give a damn what Apple
       purists think, as this one's for all the Sega hardware tragics
       in the house, who just want to listen to their Jet Set Radio
       soundtracks in style.

       I actually went to the trouble of getting a VMU -> serial cable
       a few years back to let me put homebrew on VMU's. Best I managed
       was a version of space invaders I found.

       Is it possible for you to help explain more to these things for
       us because we are very interested in this information?
