Accessory Description

The Mad Catz 128K Memory Unit (Model 1500CPA) is a third-party save storage device designed for the Sega Dreamcast. Released in 1999 alongside the system’s growing accessory lineup, this aftermarket memory card provides a straightforward and reliable way to store game progress without the added interactive features of Sega’s official VMU. Built for players who simply need dependable save storage, it offers a practical alternative to first-party memory devices.

Unlike the official Visual Memory Unit, this memory card focuses purely on data storage — there is no LCD screen, sound, or standalone functionality. Instead, it delivers dedicated memory capacity for saving game progress while fitting neatly into the Dreamcast controller’s memory slot. For players juggling multiple save files across titles like Shenmue, Crazy Taxi, or Resident Evil: Code Veronica, having additional storage like this was often essential for keeping adventures, unlockables, and progress safely preserved.
