Reicast is a SEGA Dreamcast Emulator ported on Pandora by PtitSeb. Other versions exist (Linux|GNU, Android, Windows, Mac..)

Current version available is VERY alpha. You can download it here. (will probably be updated often).

Adding to the Compatibility List

Choose a playability color that reflects a game's best playability state. Also include the clockspeed at which you ran it, for whichever Pandora version you tested. Please also indicate in the name of the Game whether the version is US/EU/JP, since compatibility may differ depending on regions. You may also add specific conditions you specified in the settings if they differ from the defaults. As for the SGX driver, please write "default" if you did not change your driver vs what was in the firmware.

Don't post a redundant entry unless you are using a different Pandora model and the playability differs from an existing entry. If a game's playability gets worse (new bugs, new crashes) in a new Reicast version, update the entry and add that to notes.

Playability Description
Fullspeed Games with a green background run at fullspeed and are fully playable from start to finish. If frameskip is required, add to notes.
Playable Games with a yellow background run slower than fullspeed, but are otherwise fully playable. Add problems/slowdowns to notes.
Incomplete Games with an orange background have playability issues and cannot be played from start to finish. This may include missing functionality (wifi) or game crashes. Add problems to notes.
Unplayable Games with a red background are unplayable. They either don't run at all, or don't get past the intro. Add any other oddities to notes.
N/A Games with a white background have not been fully tested. If you see one on this list, try it out and report back!

If you are inclined, post your forum username at the end of your notes so you can be contacted by PtitSeb about further debugging your problems.

Game Name and Region Reicast Version Pandora Model[1] SGX driver SZ version Frequency Notes on Settings Status
Incoming (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.10.00.01 1.60 1000 Mhz Runs full speed most over the time, there are several slowdowns during the campaign while facing the camera into a specific direction, but still doable. (Played for 30 Phases/Sections of the Campaign) Green
Expendable (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.10.00.01 1.60 1200 Mhz Runs at about 95-100% of game speed, the sound starts to stutter a bit sometimes, if there are too many effects and particles shown on the screen. Green
Soul Calibur (JP) Alpha 1GHz 4.03.00.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Slower than fullspeed (probably 60% of actual speed), while completely playable, and devoid of glitches on screen. Yellow
Sakura Taisen (JP) Alpha 1GHz 4.03.00.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Very slow in videos, but in-game the speed is correct and sound stutters only once in while. Playable. Note that the characters' pictures in dialogs in glitchy, somehow. Yellow
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (US) Alpha 1GHz Default 1.55 1000 Mhz Cutscenes are glitchy and gameplay audio is scratchy at random points but game ranges from slow to very playable depending on your device. Yellow
Flag To Flag (EU) Alpha 1GHz Default Default 1000 Mhz Slightly slower than fullspeed but very playable. Sound is very glitchy though and only graphical glitches noted on screen were the cars mirrors [I'd consider this a minor] [FZERO]. Yellow
Trickstyle (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.10.00.01 1.60 1200 Mhz Training runs at about 90-100 % of speed, sound stuttering sometimes. Racing runs at about 60%-80% of speed with sound stuttering all the time. Yellow
Virtua Tennis (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.10.00.01 1.60 1200 Mhz Runs at about 60-70% of game speed, the sound is stuttering all the time. But somehow it is still playable. Yellow
MDK 2 (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.10.00.01 1.60 1200 Mhz Runs at almost fullspeed, the sound is quite stable. BUT the sniper mode does not function correct. Aiming is impossible due to a texture problem. Orange

Marvel VS Capcom 2 (US) Alpha 1GHz 4.03.00.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Works well in the menus, and the speed in-game is reasonable, but the characters in 2D are completely glitchy and it makes it unplayable at this stage. Sound stutters too once in a while. Orange
Chu Chu Rocket (JP) Alpha 1GHz 4.03.00.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Works full speed most of the time with very little stuttering, but in levels when mice are getting out like crazy with tons of them on screen, it becomes unplayable and freezes. Orange

Sonic Adventure (US) Alpha Classic 4.04.00.03 1.55 900 Mhz Menu's mostly black but you can get around and runs at decent speeds. In game though, very few textures load and it's pretty slow. Game crashes after the first fight with Chaos. Orange
Ikaruga (JP) Alpha 1GHz 4.03.00.02 1.55 1000 Mhz Very slow in certain cinematics (slideshow), faster in actual game, but sometimes the bullets don't even appear and some animations are glitchy. Promising, but not really playable at this stage because of these issues. Orange
