Is it technically feasible to hack Metal Slug 6 to play on a Sega Dreamcast? That is you hack the arcade rom/iso (I'm not sure what it is), burn it to a cd-r, and then play it on a physical Dreamcast.

I ask because the Sammy Atomiswave was based on the Sega NAOMI board, which is similar to a Dreamcast.

No

the game comes ROMs, you must tear apart this data and make an ISO out of that, the turn the code upside down in order to make it work on the DC... the Atomiswave is based on the Dreamcast, not the NAOMI, and yes there are some diferences that makes porting games NOt a trivial task...

OK.

Just settle for Metal Slug X on Neo Geo CD emulation. That's about as good as you can do it anyway.
