At long last, the Dreamcast Arcade Stick Checker Version 2.00 ROM is free of the black box it has been living in for the past twenty years. The hunt for 1.00 begins, and the betas? Will the search never end? In other news, I have some 4K videos of the HKT-0120 to process and upload as well as that big backlog of footage I never did anything with.

I don’t have any photos of the actual unit on hand, but you can see photos of this type of checker over at Sega Retro. The ROM identifies itself as Dreamcast Arcade Stick Checker Version 2.00. So very specific, so very beautiful. Grab the freshly dumped ROM in 1998_08_DCC_ROM.zip to hack around with!

Two days later I opened the checker itself up in Sega Dreamcast Controller Function Checker Overview.
