I just bought a CD-i 450, and I need some information, mainly about DVC cartridges.
What games require the DVC to work? Is there a list?

hi there, new myself but I will try and help if I can. I guess the forum is kind of quiet lately so I don't know how long it will be before someone else shows up.
I found this site to be very helpful so I think it is a good place to start.

Welcome to you both into the world of cd-i!
Many cd-i games will require the DVC. All games like Dragon's Lair, Mad Dog McCree, Thunder in Paradise, Who Shot Johnny Rock, Secret Mission and the list goes on...
I would say that most games released during and after 1995 require the DVC. You can pick the cartridge up fairly easily on e-bay.
Please post again should you require any further info. The website you mention is Bas' website, and it is fantastic.

Actually, I don't think Secret Mission is a dvc game.
But yeah, many of the CD-i titles do make use of the dvc cart. Like Alan said, most (bu not all) of the consoles later titles require it. It is put to good use, and there are many games that betray their 16-bit roots and look awesome!
It was a very well supported add-on, something not to common in this industry.
I'd say its a must have for any CD-i owner!
Btw, I agree w/Alan that Bas has a fantastic site. Don't miss it!
