Bleemcast is Coming | DREAMCAST
     > You guessed it!  Bleem (the PSX emulator originally for PC) is coming to an Uberconsole near you this Summer.  It will initially be released as four different "bleempaks", each will have 100% compatibility with 100 different PSX games.  The suggested retail price is about $20 and the first bleempak should hit stores around June 15 with the other three arriving by the end of Summer.  
     > In response to the need for a Dual Shock controller for certain games, Bleem is rolling out two additional products: Bleempad and Bleempod, set to ship in the fourth quarter.  Bleempad is essentially a Dual Shock controller while Bleempod is a PSX controller adapter -- both are designed specifically to work with Bleemcast.  PSX memory cards can also be utilized for game saves and VMU transfers.  While Bleemcast will probably play CD-Rs, unfortunately, it will lock out games not explicitly supported.
     >  That's not all...  Bleem will also release two bleempaks which support an additional 100 import games each -- one for Japanese NTSC games, and one for European PAL games.  These should make it out by the end of the year, but as they are a niche item, will only be available for order Online.
