What games were compatible with the DC Jump Pack?

[GameMasterGuy]

I was thinking of getting one, but I wasn't sure if it was introduced early or late in the DC's short lifespan. If it was too far into it, not many games would be compatible with it. Anybody know?

Thank you for the list! Looks like most (if not all) games are compatible with it.

I say nearly half if not that were compatible. It's great with the sports/racing games and they're relatively cheap on Ebay so go for it

Yeah, I found a 3rd party one NIB that's $5, shipping included.

It's way more than half of the DC catalog that's compatible with the jump pack. The device was introduced at launch so it's only a mere handful of titles that are not compatible with it.

Wait... if it was introduced at launch... why wasn't it just built into the controller!?

Just wasn't. Design choice? Way to sell more accessories?

games that dont use it needed the slot. seaman...

something about the technology of the time couldnt allow it.

not enough electricty flowed thru the cable to make it with built in rumble like they do now. Also it was a design choice.

The N64 had this too. The N64's Rumble pak used batteries untill certain ones came out that properly used the electricty flowing thru it to make it rumble without extra batteries.

Some may have thought force feedback was gimmicky so they didn't incorporate it to the controller. Some today still dont like rumble on their controlers.

There is a Dreamcast controller with a built in rumble though. Its a six button for fighters and it only has one slot for memory.
