Yes. Lots of people aren't very smart.

Actually, I thought Machucado was quite clever to post in this Sega CD forum instead of the Genesis forum, but that got backfired, didn't it?

Why would this question even need to be asked? Since the Sega CD would have a Genesis with a cart slot for games. Its like saying I need a Dreamcast emulator for my dreamcast.

He wants to play roms in the SegaCD, so I don't think he has the carts where they're from.

...so it's more like asking for a VMU emulator for dreamcast.

or asking if you can download a cdimage of a dc game onto the dc using the modem/bba

and the same sort of problem, the dc/mega cd hasnt got anywhere to put such a file

Hmmm, I see no homebrew dev on Sega CD so it would be unlikly... Did Sega relase the libs for the genesis/Sega CD like they did with the Saturn?

It would take a coding genius with waaaaay too much time on their hands to fool the Mega Drive into thinking that a ROM loaded from a CD into RAM (or RAM cart more than likely) was actually the cartridge slot....

So take that as a no then

and on another note, a VMU emulator for DC IS being developed for anyone interested

the coding isnt really worth the effort, either, since the flash carts are available for just about any system, including megadrive/genesis

   Curtis Dec 27, 2001 
hehe - all we need now is for someone to suggest "streaming" the roms from CD, and we'll have a full blown N64 emu fake

   Hollywood Hasney Dec 27, 2001 
Heh, to answer my own question about the libs for Sega CD being available, they are not because thier were none. It's all low-level coding like the Mega Drive
