	VMU - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The VMU (short for Visual Memory Unit, not Virtual Memory Unit) is the "memory card" for the Sega Dreamcast.
		Players could load the VMU with chao eggs and newborn chao and playing with them on the VMU, one could increase stats of their Chao on the move and redownload their improved Chao back into the Dreamcast game.
		A VMU would plug into the top of a Dreamcast controller as opposed to plugging into the main console itself the main reason for this being that a hole within the controller allows the inverted VMU screen to be seen while playing a game.

		The VMU seems to be tolerant of faster clocks -- I got away with 8 uS but not 2.3 -- but probably isn't tolerant of faster thoroughput (the VMU must still process an interupt for each character and this must complete before another one can be received).
		Alexander said that the VMU could run at 5 MHz when connected to the dreamcast (which is fast enough to sample the data), but I don't see how this clock is generated (originally I had assumed the clock came over the connector, but I didn't see it).
		When the dreamcast reads or writes to the VMU another format is used(!) Pins 3 and 12 go high and data is transfer on pins 5 and 11 (as opposed to pins 4 and 10 for the periodic communications).

	PlanetDreamcast: Hardware - VMU
		The standard VMU has 128KB of space and, with compression, you can store about 200 saved states on a single VMU (depending of course one what kind of game or scores you are saving).
		While the VMU is plugged into the gamepad, you can still see the LCD screen (although the buttons are not accessible).
		The VMU's on board battery and built-in controller buttons and D-pad allow you to play games on the VMU when it is disconnected from the gamepad, making the VMU a portable game system as well as a memory card.

		VMU #3 must have at least 64 blocks of open space.
		You will now load each edit from VMU #2 one by one and save them into the empty slots on VMU #3 starting with slot 26 (which would be the first empty slot since you already have 25 edits on that card).
		The end result would be this: VMU #2 (.E03) = 15 edits (this file can now be deleted) VMU #3 (.E02) = 41 edits (26 from previous + 15 from.E03) By doing this over and over, it is possible to have edits from several different saves on one neat save slot.

		The other bad thing about the VMU is that it focuses too much on fancy stuff and really has hardly any memory at all.
		Another bad thing about the VMU is that you have to put it in the controller, which makes it heavier and less comfortable to hold.
		The VMU is cheaper, but with the 800 block memory card you can save 4 times more data than the VMU can, and without the beeps.

		Christian Newcomer's vmu animator is similar to the animator at booyaka.
		The VMU's processor instruction set is pretty close to the the LC86104C, but with five differences (that have been found, so far).
		Christian Newcomer's vmu animator is similar to booyaka's DC Animator, except that it works off-line, allows you to download directly from a PC (via the parallel port), and also outputs assembly-language source so that you can extensively customize the output.

		VMU är också en mycket aktiv organisation vad gäller att förse regionens verkstadsföretag med arbetskraft, detta genom att medverka vid såväl interna som externa utbildningsprogram samt erbjuda praktikplatser och feriearbete.

		With the built-in VMU emulator you'll be able to play VMU minigames on your TV without having to transfer the minigames to a visual memory unit.
		The idea is to make more free space by putting VMU files into a compressed archive (something better than zip, maybe bzip2), delete the original files and save the compressed archive to VMU instead.
		I just did some tests and the average compression on vmu files is pretty great, usually 10% of original size, so you could compress a 60 block save in a 6 block save.

		I remember bringing the VMU to school and playing it without hassle, it was so small it didn't attrack the teacher's attention.
		Tech Romancer has quite a bit of VMU stuff going for it, and kinda requires that you play it if you want all the secrets in that game (and there are many).
		And I don't think this counts, because it required the vmu to be plugged in to the controller and the game to be on to play it, but Quake 3 had these annoying ass maze mini games that you had to complete to unlock the cheat codes.

		VMUs plug into the console through the controller, and normal Sega joypads have two slots, with the top one having a window that lines up with the VMU's screen.
		The VMU's central processing unit consists of a chip that is labelled with the manufacturer, the product code name and some product identification numbers.
		The VMU tool, by VirtuaMUnstaz (http://virtuamunstaz.de) is available in two forms, an executable that you can run on your computer (if you have a C compiler, and create your own executable, that is) and an online web version.

	Dreamcast VMU Unit : Read reviews and compare prices at Ciao.co.uk
		The Dreamcast VMU is one of the most innovative peripherals ever created for a games console, and I feel that Sega have designed more than a mere memory card here, and everyone will incorporate this idea in some way or other!
		The VMU stands for Visual Memory Unit, and is currently the only Official Sega product offering the save game facility, but it is also the best memory card available for your Dreamcast.
		I bought the Dreamcast VMU and Dreamcast the day they came out and it was the best 320 quid i ever spent.

	GamingMoz - Dreamcast VMU
		The DreamCast Visual Memory Unit (VMU) was an innovative type of memory card.
		What made these different from your normal everyday card is that they all had a small LCD screen on them, used mainly for managing the data on them.
		However, that's not all they do, because some games/types of game data had the ability to download games to the card, that could be played right off of the VMU itself on its screen.
