Rippin’ Riders is a Visual Memory Unit (VMU) compatible
game. Data saved to a game file includes option settings, time
scores and other scoring results. To save game data connect
a Dreamcast controller to any control port. Then, insert the
memory card (VMU) to be used to save the game data into an
expansion socket of the controller. With this game, a mini-
mum of 4 blocks of free memory is required to save a game
file. Additional free memory is required to save replay data.

Dreamcast Controller to play Rippin’ Riders,
always insert the Jump Pack into Expansion

does not lock into place and may fall out
during game play or otherwise inhibit game
operation.
