    Once a while, a thread pops up saying "How do you burn Dreamcast games??!!" or "Help me copy DC games!!" etc. So to stop these threads I've decided to post this thread! Anyway, here's the guide to backing up DC games.

    I'll try to bump this up everyday. Also if you see any other threads asking help about burning Dreamcast games, please refer them to this thread. Especially if it is on the other boards. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]When you are on your deathbed, you will wonder, "Did I waste my life? Was it worth spending all that time on that?" Do not despair, no one has wasted their life. After all, you can only waste something if you throw it away. And you can't throw life away. [/small]

    Wouldnt it be simpler just to request that the thread be stickied? Or to submit the guide to the Guides section? ;)

    Does stickied mean it's those titles in bold writing? And I can't submit this article as a guide because it's not my own work...

    How can you request it to be stickied?

    I've had a good look around the forums, and it seems that most stickied threads are only started by "Biggie people". You know, like Dela, Oner, dRD, etc.

    And I'm junior member, so maybe a promotion for me? :p

    Anyways, how do you get a promotion?_X_X_X_X_X_[small]When you are on your deathbed, you will wonder, "Did I waste my life? Was it worth spending all that time on that?"

    Oooo.... Pick me! Pick me!!! There is one thing on this D C matter though... and that's where to find the D C game files. Most of the links on my suggested guide are broken or non exsistance... IRC is a good place to get D C stuff, but still... you could get a virus infected file...is there a chance, there's a website to get these games?_X_X_X_X_X_[small]When you are on your deathbed, you will wonder, "Did I waste my life?

    Because the average Joe can't copy D C games directly, you will need game files ripped by other people. That is the only way me or you can make a back up of a D C game. I was just wondering if there's a site to get these games...

    my fault big dogg..my connection was timing out every time i clicked on the link from work. Here at home the link shows right up

    I was going to refer this thread to someone in the CD-r forum since they were asking about how to backup Dreamcast games.

    Will re-edit my last post

    My sincere apology.
