Vircon32 (32-bit virtual console) is a new game console, created from scratch. It is a 32-bit system created with the goal of being as simple as possible, but still having enough features to support full, elaborate games. I didn't make a bezel because the games run in 16:9.

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.

Here's the full package (Database, Theme, Wheels, Video) for Casio Loopy. Now playable in MAME 0.260 (no audio). I'm using the same Casio Loopy theme that's been around for many years (not sure who made it) I adjusted it for 16:9 I captured new videos with MAME but there is no audio (I did add audio to Main Menu video)

Required: MAME 0.258 or newer Watara TV-Link is not an independent system but an adapter for the Supervison to connect to a television. It's a good idea in theory and (possibly?) beat the Nintendo Super Gameboy to market but it doesn't really "enhance" the Supervision gaming experience. Attempted enhancements include: removing LCD ghosting, increasing the resolution and size of the screen and adding color. That all sounds great but the "color" only being shades of blue makes the games very hard to see. Emulation of the Supervision has already corrected ghosting and the ability to play on a larger screen. I do feel its justified to have this system since the color and resolution create a different experience (even though worse) it's still a somewhat significant piece of videogame history.

LG DIGITALezLG (MESEN Core) A bundle of NES games released in some models of LG Electronics TVs around 2008. Most games are actually bootleg versions of popular NES games, with lots of aesthetic changes (and gameplay changes in some cases). There is an exclusive game: Quick Brain. Games are played with the TV Remote and the controls seem a bit sluggish but to be fair, I'm sure it was on the original remote. I've split up the multigame using duplicate roms and autoload save states. The select button has been disabled on each individual game so the main menu can't be accessed but the full compilation version is still accessible for the "authentic" experience. An interesting obscure system but not the most justified to include since better versions of every game are on the NES.
