Key points
- Requires adapter to connect to PC.
- Lacks native XInput support, requiring the use of a XInput wrapper (see XInput wrappers) for games that do not support DirectInput or the controller natively.
- Unlike the Sega Saturn Controller (and Mega Drive) there are no 𝐂 and 𝐙 buttons, and the controller has moved past the need for a switch to toggle between analogue and digital modes, seen on the 3D Control Pad.
Inputs
- 1 × analog stick
- 2 × analog triggers: 𝐋, 𝐑
- 5 × digital buttons: 𝐀, 𝐁, 𝐗, 𝗬, sᴛᴀʀᴛ
- 4 × digital directional buttons (d-pad): ↑, ↓, ←, →
Use with PC platforms
Windows
XInput wrapping
- Acting as native DirectInput controller, it's possible to use any of the generic wrappers. See the controller article for those.
Hardware
Adapters
Mayflash Dreamcast Adapter
- Directly compatible with PC. No driver needed, just plug and play.
- Two players can play simultaneously.
- No extra power supply required.
Bliss-Box Gamer-Pro
- Directly compatible with PC. No driver needed, just plug and play.
- Allows to configure and test haptic feedback and communication.
- Allows to rebind buttons.
- Supports hotswap. You can disconnect and connect controller without unplugging adapter.
- Visual Memory Unit (VMU) LCD read/write support. Allows to save your own image as static wallpaper. See more.
- Visual Memory Unit image is static and does not work like other LCD panels middleware available for PC.
Expansions
Jump Pack
- Known as the Vibration Pack in Europe and the Puru Puru Pack (ぷるぷるパック) in Japan) is a insertable accessory for the Dreamcast controller's expansion ports. When placed in the controller, it allow compatible games to give force feedback to the controller.
- See the list of compatible games for Dreamcast emulator
Dreamcast Microphone
- Known as the Dreamcast Mic Device (ドリームキャスト マイクデバイス) in Japan, is a microphone peripheral for the Sega Dreamcast. Taking up a VMU slot, the microphone was developed for use with Seaman, though became compatible with other games during late 2000 and 2001.
- See the list of compatible games for Dreamcast emulator
Support in games
- Support for some controller features may be only available on certain systems. Refer to game-specific articles for details.
Games with microphone support
- Microphone support requires Dreamcast Microphone extension.
- Games with implemented voice chat should be able to use controller's microphone. There is no software which supports Dreamcast Microphone for PC yet.
- VoiceBot and VoiceAttack allows to control games and applications by voice commands.
- Dreamcast games support Dreamcast Microphone peripheral. See more.
- List of Microphone-controllerd computer games.
Games with XInput button prompts
- Total number of games: Error 1140: In aggregated query without GROUP BY, expression #1 of SELECT list contains nonaggregated column 'pcgamingwiki_cargo.cargo__Input._pageID'; this is incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by (mysql01.mysql.pcgamingwiki-14662257-production.svc.cluster.local)
Function: CargoSQLQuery::run Query: SELECT `cargo__Input`.`_pageID` AS `cargo_backlink_page_id_Input`,`cargo__Infobox_game`.`_pageID` AS `cargo_backlink_page_id_Infobox_game`,COUNT(*) FROM `cargo__Infobox_game` LEFT OUTER JOIN `cargo__Input` ON ((`cargo__Infobox_game`.`_pageName`=`cargo__Input`.`_pageName`)) WHERE `cargo__Input`.`Xbox_prompts`='true' OR `cargo__Input`.`Xbox_prompts`='limited' OR `cargo__Input`.`Xbox_prompts`='hackable' ORDER BY `cargo__Input`.`_pageID`,`cargo__Infobox_game`.`_pageID`,COUNT(*) LIMIT 100
.
- The controller's button positions and colors, and the amount of buttons, differ considerably from those of other Xbox controllers. As such, the list below should be treated with some caution.
- Please note, that this is only list for games that offer XInput button prompts.
- Some may require use of Xbox 360 controller emulation. Refer to game-specific articles for details.
