    Default Interesting Dreamcast accessory....anyone else have one?

    I picked up an oddity for my Dreamcast off of eBay a few years back, and have never seen one up for auction or in the wild since, figured I'd ask about it.

    Its a Memory Card and Rumble pack all in one unit, made by Nyko. The card is a 4X card, you hit the button and it switches between one of four banks of storage, with an LED that comes on that tells you what bank your card is saving to. Also, there's a switch on the top that switches it from Memory to Rumble mode. Its also transparent orange. Anyone else own one or see one? I can post pics if its something that might be rare or something, I figured it was common but after going years without finding another one I could be wrong.

    I didn't even knew that exist!

    This should be interesting for my future-DC!

    They used to be pretty common in stores, but I never tried one since memory bank switching memory cards had the bad habit of erasing game saves in PSX cards.

    i had (sadly no more) a controller made by topway, it was a perfect replica of the original so no weird design, but it had built-in rumble (not "mono" as the original Jump Pack, were two inside, like a dual shock) and simultaneously you can insert two VMUs as a standard controller, so it's like it had 3 peripherials at the same instead of two as any other controller allows to (you know, if you plug the rumle you can't plug a 2nd vmu, or as your 4xVMU+Rumble does, needs to swap). Too bad it broke, i can't find any like that anymore..

    I got a couple of those off eBay when I was getting stuff for the DC I got late last year. I also picked up a couple extra VMUs, and a standard rumble pak for testing purposes.
