      Emulation is always an option. The R36s can handle dreamcast games for pretty cheap, though it’s recommended to replace the cheap SD card it comes with.

          The R36s is pretty underpowered and can’t run Dreamcast (unless there’s another R36s that doesn’t have the RK3326). I recommend purchasing a more expensive one (handhelds of around 100$ nowadays can run PSP, 200$ usually gets GameCube and PS2 if you grab the right one) or directly a PC.

            Well, the R36S can technically run Dreamcast. Some Dreamcast games. At like, 50% resolution scale and with some frameskip probably. I was able to get it to run Phantasy Star Online pretty decently. But other games were unplayable.
