"The VM2 project aims in the total reproduction and upgrade of the original VMU for our beloved Dreamcast. The VMU was one of the greatest console's assets, but with many design flaws. Now, with the VM2, all of these flaws are eliminated giving the user an experience that truly feels like next-gen! Internally, the VM2 received a totally fresh design with modern electronics.

The VM2 does look interesting, but its price tag is a little bit high. I have tons of VMUs so idk that I would need this enough to pay $140 to $200 for one.
