Everything can be hacked/cracked, it just takes a little time. 20 years time that is.
Thanks to engineer James Laird-Wah, Sega’s 32-bit hardware has been cracked, allowing games to be loaded via USB.
Laird-Wah is known online as Dr Abrasive, and is responsible for a USB-powered ROM-reading cartridge for the Game Boy called the Drag ‘n Derp.
The news was revealed on the YouTube channel debuglive, which features an exhaustive interview with Laird-Wah, showcasing his multi-year process.
So what this means is, that sega machines can still be used via USB loaded games, in case you can't get your hands on any discs.
