Playing ATARI Backups on SEGA DC

[long_shawn_silver]

Hey,

I'm buying a Dreamcast so my kids can play my ATARI games without actually having to use my real carts (as well for the NES & SNES also) and I was wondering if I need to make a boot disk for the EMU's or what? I got the EMU's now but I am unsure of how\if I need a boot image on the disc to make it run. Any help would be great. Sorry if this is a tabboo topic but I am legit in saying to is to play games I already own I just don't want my kids chancing 100 dollar atari games, rather they ruin a 50 cent burnt disc. Anyone with such info for me could just PM me if you adpet at this dreamcast stuff to kept your name out of this post if that would be better.

Thanks,
Shawn Sr.

To be frank, there aren't many $100 Atari games worth playing. Nearly all the good games are $10 or less.

A few rounds of 2600 Shooting Arcade Anyone?? Or maybe some Ewok Adventure? Just cause you don't have them doesn't mean I don't!!

Your telling me you would let small children play with R9's & R10's? Get real.

Actually, I do have a copy of Ewok Adventure. I got it from ClubNinja. It's not that fun a game.

Your best source of DC Emulation information is, oddly enough, DCEmulation.com ! They have both [D]cs2600 and Stella DC available for download with instuctions in getting them to work. Good luck!
