Dreamcast emulator Reicast adds online multiplayer support
The Reicast core in RetroArch has received a new feature: online multiplayer. This addition has been recently added to the emulator, allowing for players to still play Dreamcast games online, even if they've had their servers go down ages ago. It takes a small bit of effort to set up, but once you do, you'll be playing online like it was 1999. The video above by the LibRetro team showcases Phantasy Star Online being played with two participants, and it appears that it works with other games such as Toy Racer and Quake III Arena as well.
Reicast Libretro has now gained modem and PPP support. It leverages dreamcastlive.net which makes it possible to still play these games while their original servers are down. This is the first time as far as we are aware of that a Dreamcast emulator has zero-configuration multiplayer support! You don't have to setup an IP address for this or do any port forwarding, it should just work!
