Region-Free BIOS Chip Installation

Price: $49.99 (Includes return shipping)
Replace the stock BIOS chip with a region-free one. This will allow you to play games from any region without the need for a boot disc and adds some nice additional features. The chip comes flashed with a custom BIOS by japanese-cake (v1.031) which includes all the features listed below.

• Skip the ‘Licensed by SEGA’ screen for a slightly faster boot time
• Boot backups from the Dreamcast menu without the Dreamcast restarting
• Copy or move copy-protected VMU saves
• Boot non-VGA compatible games without a boot disc
• Optional: Dreamcast dev kit boot animation

Additional Services

All the services below can be performed in addition to the BIOS chip replacement. They are not available as stand-alone services.
