Console Programming
Author
I am wanting to start working with programming console games(ie dreamcast). Can anyone point me in the direction where I can get information, pointers, compilers, ....
Thanks in advance
If you can''t win, make sure the one that beats you breaks the record!
Metrowerks makes a compiler for playstation, palm, mac, pc, etc... go to www.metrowerks.com for the full list.

Good luck getting development tools and information on the Dreamcast if you''re just an individual without a bunch of money to spend.
If you''re willing to step down a generation, you can get a Playstation setup with a GameShark/ProActionReplay adapter and a PC-Link cable that, in conjunction with a cross-compiling version of the GNU tool set (gcc, etc), will allow you to develop software on the Playstation.
Also, there''s similiar setups (often as part of a console ''copier'' system) that allow for using standard off-the-shelf consoles as low-end development systems for the N64, the Color Game Boy and earlier consoles.
I haven''t seen any similar type of setup that allows for Dreamcast development, with the exception of some information and an assembler for writing small VMU games.
