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.

I did not create any of the media for this system, so I didn't upload it as part of my project last year: 1970's Home Console Project But it has been requested a few times and I did make the RetroArch/MAME configuration. Sorry it took me so long to upload it. Special Control: L1=1 R1=2 L2=3 R2=4 X=5 Y=6 Right Joystick: UP=7 Right=8 Down=9 Left=0

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 -------------------------------------------------- The most functional game is Pinball Flippers A & B or L1 & R1 Enter=Start
