Try Googing "NullDC" you do not need the disks to run the emulator, just make sure that you own the real game before you download one, otherwise it's illegal.
The Dreamcast cannot emulate itself, however, it is possible to obtain a Dreamcast emulator for a PC. Various emulators, such as Chankast Alpha, exist.
There are no dreamcast emulators that will run dreamcast ROMs. The dreamcast is cd-based, so you can either download an emulator like Chankast, and use actual dreamcast CDs (you can get them for a couple of dollars/pounds) or download dreamcast ISOs

There is a Dreamcast emulator, known as lxdream, under active development for Linux and Mac OS X. It is not completely stable yet and is only capable of running a few games.
First you need a Sega Dreamcast Emulator (For original Sonic Adventure) or a Gamecube Emulator (For Sonic Adventure DX, which is an upgrade of the original). After that you need to download the emulator AND the ROM for the game you want to play. Note that the emulators are not Nintendo/Sega approved or licensed.
To make homebrew Dreamcast games, you'll need a few essential tools: a Dreamcast development kit or a compatible emulator, a programming language like C or C++, and a suitable development environment like KallistiOS, which is a popular library for Dreamcast development. Start by setting up your development environment, then write your game code, utilizing the Dreamcast's hardware capabilities. Finally, compile your code into a format the Dreamcast can run, such as a CDI or GDI image, and test it on real hardware or an emulator. Don't forget to explore online communities and resources for tutorials and support!
The great thing about Dreamcast is that it will read a regular CD that you can burn off your computer. All you need to do is find a site with the emulators you need, burn them to disc (in Dreamcast format), and then game on! Just make sure you burn the emulator to one disc and the games to a separate one.
The Dreamcast BIOS is the most basic software chip built into the Dreamcast, it is responsible for managing the basic hardware settings and boot configuration. There is no real reason why anyone would wish to create a BIOS from scratch or significantly modify the existing firmware. Dreamcast emulators require a BIOS file in order to act like the system, however they do not include this software because it is copywrited. In order to use a Dreamcast emulator you need to extract the software from an existing physical Dreamcast unit by use of a serial coder cable.
No, it can't natively, although you can use an Saturn emulator to play it on your Dreamcast. The issue is that the game play is immensely bad. It is probably due to their different architectures.
First off everyone who is reading this.. YOUR WELCOME! :) Well first go to "coolroms.com". Then you go to the emulators link/download the Chankast emulator. After you have done that... go to the roms section for the dreamcast games only and then you download all your roms for dreamcast. Next... make sure you have a different drive like e or something or the emulator WILL NOT WORK. Once you have done this... go to your emulator (Chankast)... right click/extract data.. (First create a new folder named Dreamcast games then you extract the emulator) Then you go to Chankast... go to configure drives... select "e".. then you start your game and you are ready to play an awesome game like MORTAL KOMBAT GOLD! :) Have fun gamers!
Yes - if you have the game in GDI/raw format and use an emulator such as NULLDC, CHANKAST, or MAKARON.
A PlayStation emulator is a program that allows you to play PlayStation games on another platform, such as your computer or a Dreamcast.
