How to Make a Dreamcast ISO File

The Sega Dreamcast is a video game console considered by many to be way ahead of its time. It uses optical disks, like the original Playstation, as its gaming medium. As with every other game system, Dreamcast games are expensive so backing them up is important. When you back up your Dreamcast game, an ISO file is created. This ISO file is the exact replica of the game disk.
