You have to add the bios in manually by ripping them out of a Dreamcast console and putting them in /sdcard/dc/data. You have to make the dc and data folder. And if you don't have a Dreamcast, well... Aaarrrggghh matey!!!!

Thanks for the suggestion.

Edit: Well, I did what you suggested and it appears to be working now! The GPU now stays maxed. It asked for superuser access, so I picked the "forever" option. Time to test it out.

By the way, how hard on the system do you think it is to keep the GPU maxed like this? Definitely didn't want to burn anything out.

So far I have played PSO v2 on the Reicast emulator for 8 hours overall, about 3 hours in neon shadow and had the overclock active all day for the last few days, the OUYA is not hot to touch at all and no had any problems yet.

I can't even hear the fan inside, I think you are good to leave it running.

If you have a region free DC right now you would be best sticking with that using VGA out, the emulator is great but very early, a lot of games fail to run or load currently and only a small handful feel solid, you get shimmering polygons or loading pauses and such.

It's not replacing my DC anytime soon but it's good fun to see games like PSO in 1080p and play well on the ouya.

Well, I tried 2 games, and they worked.

1)Crazy Taxi 2 - Runs flawlessly and without any glitches.

2)Resident Evil : Code Veronica - 1st miniDVD runs without problems, except for some bearable graphic glitches whenever you encounter some heavy lighted areas or stand right below a light source. But, the 2nd miniDVD does not seem to load up, so, I dont think that as of now, we would be able to complete the game. Thats some sad stuff.

Quite frankly, this being in the alpha stage, I think it has an extreme potential, because other gaming platform emulation could not achieve atleast playable status until the end of beta. I would donate if they asked, but quite frankly it turns out that they dont accept monetary donations, but old and used devices to test their emulator on. That was quite a surprise.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the tip. The Crazy Taxi series never gets old so I'm happy to hear it works so well.
