    Question Was the DREAMCAST microphone used for anything else?

    I mean, was it useful for anything else other than SEAMAN?

    Alienfront Online, Mr. Driller and Planet Ring (europe only) all supported the microphone.

    You were able to yell 'Drill', or something like that, in to the microphone it make him move further down the level. Not completely practical, but fun to try.

    It's actually any sound. The louder sound you make into the mic, the faster he drills. If you make a loud, constant sound, he'll drill much faster than he's otherwise able. It can be pretty cheap.

    It doesn't matter; it's not actually good for anything.
