The Dremacast Visual memory Unit (VMU) was produced by Sega and released in the UK in 1999. The peripheral could be plugged directly into one of the console's controllers and used for storing game save data. The VMU could then be removed and transferred between consoles. Featuring an LCD display, directional pad and buttons, the VMU could be used for more than just data storage and had the capability to actually play games independently of the console. Whilst connected to the controller, the screen could be used to display additional information for the game being played to enchance the experience.
