Currently, there are two Dreamcast emulators that have managed to run some commercial games at an acceptable speed and compatibility. And they are Chankast and NullDC.

You need to get the dc_bios.bin and dc_flash.bin (don't ask where). For NullDC, you need to rename the dc_bios.bin to dc_boot.bin.

The sad news about Chankast is that it's been dead since 2005 (no updates, no new releases, nothing). Chankast can play some games like Sonic Adventure, Shenmue, Grandia II and some other well-known games.

thank to everyone in advance...........
the thing that i wonna do is to know exactly which game runs with chankast or which game runs with nulldc.
the other thing that i wonna know is the version of the good emulators.
for example with chankast version......... runs..................
with nulldc version .................... runs.....................
this will be a very good help to everyone wants to test a dc emulator.

Click to expand...

NullDC is better and anywhere near n64 emu is... Chankast is not good because it is picky and annoying to some people who have a problem with computer. NullDC can handle better like Pj64 for any computers. However, if you have good computer then I suggest you getting both emulators... Anyway....:)
