RyuHayabusa78 Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Hi everyone, back again for more help. Ok, so I'm trying to get all the Japanese retro computers up and running. Right now I'm working on the NEC PC-9801 and 8801 running. Apparently there isn't much interest in these two platforms, I guess because most of the games are in Japanese and not that playable to Westerners though there are a few interesting games to check out. So, I've scoured the net looking for information to get them up and running and all I've been able to come up with are two rough modules over at the Rocketlauncher forum for the 9801 and one for the 8801, none of which I can get to work. I've got one for Project Neko 2 which loads the emu but no games. The other is for T98next which brings up a black screen that says no system in red letters with a high pitched noise, lol. That one had been edited from the Touhou module. For the PC-8801 I've got a module for m88 but it just doesn't load anything. Now, this might sound silly but I'm no expert at this stuff. None of these modules have an .isd and I don't know how to make one. Basically, if anyone has some working modules for any of these emulators I'd really, really appreciate it. These are the last two platforms I need for my machine to make it complete for me. Oh, and any idea if there are wheel and video sets available anywhere for them? I've got a membership at emumovies and I've looked at arcadepunks and there's nothing that I can find. Any info would be great appreciated. Thanks!!!!
RyuHayabusa78 Posted January 24, 2018 Author Posted January 24, 2018 Edited above post because I've got the FM Towns working. Need help with the NEC PC9801 and 8801 and didn't want to start a new topic to clog the boards up.
RyuHayabusa78 Posted February 1, 2018 Author Posted February 1, 2018 I've tried asking for help on the Rocketlauncher forum but haven't gotten any replies thus far.
sanchezmike01 Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 Wish I can help on this one...I'd also like to get pc98 setup because there is a retroarch core for it..I personally use android as the platform but the core is also available for PC....a major issue is that there is literally no type of artwork for pc98 from boxart to wheels and videos..if u ever find anything please let me know...thanks
