Working on this Dreamcast mini theme to use in my Dreamcast Mini.
650 + games, all region-based CD art, loading screens and more!

@pythonli OH MY GOD this is perfect. So many questions. How do I get this theme? Was planning on making a a Dreamcast only Pi4 setup.
Have you uploaded the image anywhere at all?

@dedworthmean not yet. I still have to create about 20 loading screens and then clean up some system stuff. Hoping the weekend!

Still waiting on the release of his TG16 mini theme

Is there a way to add Date and Time to a theme in Emulation Station?
Trying to mimic the iconic Dreamcast main menu for my themes "system menu".

That's cute, but keep in mind that the European Edition had no Logo where the Dreamcast text is...

@h2805270 True. This build is based on the orange light, orange swirl, 9/9/99 USA Dreamcast.

@h2805270 I would assume with an image that clear you're using DCHDMI? How hard was it to install? I just picked up a MODE and the HDMI mod is next on my list.

I don't own one (not anymore), I just dug it up online because I remember that tiny detail...

I'm just picky when it comes to regional variations with consoles on emulators.
For example, I rarely see anybody acknowledge the European version of the SNES.

As for your question, I don't think it's possible, since I've never seen anyone do that in any other theme...

It's best to ask someone in the "Ideas & Development" forum (because you might be on to something):

And I was just planning on doing a Dreamcast only image! Keeping tabs on this one for sure!
