I'm calling this system Apple Macintosh Classic because its only Black and White games running in System 6. This is based off the current MAME Software List (0.258) mac_floppy set.
Its only scratching the surface of what Macintosh games/systems can be emulated but its small enough to collect as its own system.
Running in RetroArch (MAME current core), I've had to make some customizations to the mac_floppy hash files and use HDD images to make some games bootable.
I'm actually using the Macintosh Plus (not Macintosh Classic) because it was the only model to have (hash listed) compatibility for all games in SL set.
Even though every game "boots" a small percentage do crash or not load completely. I could probably correct this with alternate images or further customizing the hash files but for now I would rather wait for future MAME updates. Every month has been focused on increasing Macintosh compatibility.
Basic mouse controls are also mapped to a controller and work well enough, but this system will always require a mouse and keyboard for the vast majority of the games.
MAME 0.257 (current updated core) is required. This system is barely playable but when has that ever stopped me?
The VideoBrain Family Computer is an 8-bit home computer manufactured by Umtech Incorporated in 1977. It is the first computer to use ROM-based cartridges for instant program loading.
It's a struggle to get any accurate movement with a joystick in MAME. The keyboard layout is so unintuitive that I had to create a bezel showing the default layout. All attempts to remap the joystick or keyboard was unsuccessful.
Using RetroArch autoload save states and customizing the MAME videobrain hash, I was able to split Gladiator into three separate games: (Gladiator, Future Gladiator, and Scrimmage).
Hopefully MAME compatibility will improve in the future because some of the games look impressive by 1978 standards.
I had to manually adjust the screen position (settings in cfg file).
Use the autoload states and the correct number code will be automatically entered for Gladiator, Future Gladiator, and Scrimmage. Without autoload states all three games will load Gladiator main menu.
Without states:
Gladiator 1-127
Scrimmage 129-255
Future Gladiator 256-999

Se trata de un ordenador de 8 bits húngaro nada menos. Se diseñó originalmente para ser usado en las escuelas, pero parece que tuvo algo de proyección fuera de ellas. Recordemos que en 1984 Hungría quedaba dentro del bloque comunista europeo, así que los ordenadores occidentales debieron llegar hasta allí con cuentagotas.

RM Nimbus( Media Complete)
RM Nimbus era una gama de computadoras personales de la empresa británica Research Machines (ahora RM Education) vendida desde 1985 hasta principios de la década de 1990, después de lo cual se suspendió la designación Nimbus. La primera de estas computadoras, la RM Nimbus PC-186, no era compatible con IBM PC, pero sus sucesoras, la PC-286 y la PC-386, sí lo eran. Las computadoras RM se vendieron principalmente a escuelas y universidades en el Reino Unido para su uso como estaciones de trabajo LAN en las aulas. PC-186 La RM Nimbus PC-186 fue una microcomputadora de 16 bits presentada en 1985. Es una de una pequeña cantidad de computadoras basadas en el procesador Intel 80186, una versión del Intel 8086 (como lo usa la PC de IBM) originalmente pensada como un procesador para sistemas integrados. Corría MS-DOS 3.1 pero no era compatible con IBM PC. El PC-186 podía ejecutar versiones de Windows hasta Windows 3.0 inclusive, pero solo en modo real, ya que el modo protegido solo estaba disponible en procesadores 286 o superiores. La mayoría de los sistemas PC-186 se utilizaron como estaciones de trabajo dentro de una red de área local y se suministraron sin disco duro. El sistema operativo se inició desde un disquete o mediante una ROM de arranque remoto en su tarjeta de interfaz de red, conectándose al servidor de archivos de la LAN. Las estaciones de trabajo independientes eran más raras, pero estaban disponibles con unidades de disquete dobles o un disco duro de 20 Mbytes y una unidad de disquete. Conectores de E/S Ratón: conector D-Sub de 9 pines, a veces confundido con un puerto serie, utiliza señalización en cuadratura Teclado - Modelos anteriores - Puerto de teclado propietario, Modelos posteriores - Puerto de teclado PS/2 Vídeo - Conector DIN de 5 pines con salida TTL RGB compatible con conectores de micro monitor BBC - Salida CGA modificada Paralelo: opcional a través de la tarjeta de expansión, generalmente con el 'puerto de usuario' micro BBC al lado, ambos con conectores de clavija de cinta Red - Conector BNC - Zilog Z-NET, las tarjetas de expansión Ethernet estaban disponibles para modelos posteriores - ambos permitían arranque de red Piconet: una interfaz serial patentada para conectar periféricos Alimentación: conector IEC estándar de entrada y salida para suministro de monitor

It ran MS-DOS 3.1 but was not compatible with the IBM PC. The PC-186 could run versions of Windows up to and including Windows 3.0, but only in real mode, as protected mode was only available on 286 or higher processors. Most PC-186 systems were used as workstations within a local area network and were supplied without a hard drive. The operating system was booted from a floppy disk or via a remote boot ROM on its network interface card, connecting to the file server on the LAN. Stand-alone workstations were rarer, but were available with dual floppy drives or a 20 Mbyte hard drive and a floppy drive. I/O connectors Mouse: 9-pin D-Sub connector, sometimes confused with a serial port, uses quadrature signaling Keyboard - Earlier Models - Proprietary Keyboard Port, Later Models - PS/2 Keyboard Port Video - 5-pin DIN connector with RGB TTL output compatible with BBC micro monitor connectors - Modified CGA output Parallel: Optional via expansion card, usually with BBC micro 'user port' next to it, both with ribbon pin connectors Network - BNC Connector - Zilog Z-NET, Ethernet expansion cards were available for later models - both allowed network boot Piconet: a proprietary serial interface for connecting peripherals Power: IEC standard input and output connector for monitor supply

Aquí dejo los artworks para el sistema, algunas de las cajas son las realizadas por Spycat en otro foro, créditos hacia él, algunas las he creado ante la falta de media y otras cuantas tambien, al no existir oficialmente al ser conversiones de msx, coleco etc..
Todos los cassettes han sido creados inspirados en los pocos cassettes de los que se disponen, el artwork2 son las luces de encendido para el default. espero que os guste.
He tenido que repartir la subida más de la cuenta debido a problemas de servidor.
Aquí os dejo la configuración completa para este sistema en Retroarch con el core MAME, subido también Bezel y Fade con todos los layers creados recién salidos del horno.
Muchas gracias a Floatingyeti por su ayuda en todo lo relativo a archivos de configuración, sin todo eso, nada sería tan fácil, o posible.
A computer from 1948! This is quite possibly the oldest system in MAME Software List but, does it have games?
I found this system during a deep dive into MAME SL, with titles like Nightmare and Virtual Pet, I assumed I found games. What I found was an ancestor to videogames, a prototype or idea of what games would become. There isn't much to “control”, the programs are either used for basic math calculations or graphical demos. The first computer graphics to exist.
My mind kept returning to this system during other projects. How would it work? Is it even justified?
Ultimately, I decided it was an important footnote in the origin of videogames and I would give it my best attempt.
The Main Theme is taken from a documentary. I cut together thirteen three second clips and fixed the audio with music. I think it's the best way to show a computer that is the size of a small room.
I didn't map any controls so it's strictly keyboard only. I'm not sure if Nightmare can be controlled but Virtual Pet seems like you can do something with proper instruction.
I had to use a combination of Bezel.ini, MAME slider configuration, and Retroarch (Content Directory) Custom Windows Scaling to shrink the games down to fit the bezel.
Yes, the screen is very small using the bezel, but so was the real life SSEM monitor. I wanted the bezel to display the monitor and button panel. It was the best decision I could make to represent a computer the size of a room.

This Japanese computer looks pretty powerful.
The main board is located in the main case, below the monitor.
Inside this main case there are 6 expansion slots, which is plenty! Therefore,
many expansion boards were available (disks, printers, 8088 boards, Z80, etc.).
One cool feature is that there's a little hatch in the keyboard that reveals some cool control switches: a power switch, a text mode switch (80/40 columns), a reset button, and a volume control knob. Japan PC with only three games (on MAME SL)

PEL Varazdin Orao (1984): An 8-bit computer from Croatia. It was mostly used for education as a primary/secondary school computer.
There are only 9 games listed as playable, but I was as able to get a total of 17 working.
The button mapping was very difficult. There is no MAME joystick support, and no games use the same keyboard keys. I was still able to get all but one game playable with a controller.
There were 3 "playable" games I didn't include. Those games could only use the keyboard in natural mode. Controls were F1-F4 and couldn't be reassigned. I don't need to explain why that is a terrible idea.
I mapped number 1-4 to L1,R1,L2,R2

RetroArch/MAME setup instructions and other related Uploads:
Ongoing RetroArch (MAME Software List) Project
My first attempt at posting a full setup. The result is not up to the usual high standard here but I don't think that this system has ever been proposed, so I post it anyway.
The Apple I was short lived, sold less than 200 units handmade by Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs but it has a great historical significance.
The process is the same as for the Floatingyeti releases except that I have zipped the files in their own directories. The emulator is Retroarch/mame_libretro.
For the people allergic to Retroarch, you can use Mame and type the command lines for each game manually (or create a command file). The instructions to launch the games are on the hash file (good luck to you...).
So you must go through the following steps:
1. Extract the media.zip in Hyperspin/Media
2. Extract the Main Menu.zip in Hyperspin/Media/Main Menu
3. Extract the games where you want and point Rocketlauncher to this directory
4. Extract the Retroarch.zip to your Retroarch folder
5. Extract the Databases.zip to your......Databases folder !
6. Choose Retroarch as the emulator in Rocketlauncher and mame_libretro as the core in the module global settings.
7. you must add the following lines in the Retroarch module for Rocketlauncher where it's needed:
MSystem := "Apple I"
mTypeVar:= Apple I|mame_libretro|apple1
You should be ready to go. I have included the savestates in the retroarch folder so you don't have to go through the tedious process of typing all the command lines. If the save states doesn't start automatically in retroarch you have to put the corresponding option on in the core options, or hit F4 (or your hotkey+F4) each time you start a game.
It is my first release so please be tolerant. I will update the files if I have made any mistakes.
There was little to none artworks available for this system and the games have no graphics so it was tough to create the media. I know I have done a pretty subpar job and I hope someone will pick up the job and improve the media dramatically. I didn't made a Bezel as I am using a Megabezel in Retroarch. It's an old wooden TV that fits well with the homemade Apple I built by Steve Wozniak.
Credits goes to Floatinyeti for his help and inspiration, to Duimon who created the nice megabezel I am using for the videos and for whoever created the original database and main theme I have borrowed.
