Commodore MAX Machine Setup for RetroArch(MAME - current core) 
I got 10/14 games to work
I had to remove games that:
-Use paddle controller (couldn't get device to work in MAME)
-Have controls that conflict with other games
Xbox 360 (Xinput) controls:
---------------------
Left JoyStick
Up    = "P"

---------------------
X = "A"
A = "F1" (Fire/Start)
B = "D"
L1 = "F1" (Select 1 Player)
R1 = "F3" (Select 2 Player)
*Avenger uses D-pad and A button; Joystick will not work properly
**Must use MAME remaps in "HASH - CFG - Controls.zip"

Fujitsu FM7 Setup for RetroArch (MAME - current)
This is for use with Mame Software list "fm7_disk" set. 
These are the only 19 compatible disk(floppy) games within RetroArch(MAME).  
Xbox 360 (Xinput) controls:
X = Z
A = X
Y = Space
B = Break
Start = Return
R3 = Y (yes)
L3 = N (no)
L1 = Numpad 7 (Jump Left - Move Up/Left)

FMAV77 Setup for RetroArch (MAME - current)
This is for use with Mame Software list "fmav77" set.
Compatibility is still preliminary but I was able to identify 14 "playable" games from the 46 available.
Some games have many glitches.
Xbox 360 (Xinput) controls:
X = Button 1
B = Button 2
Y = Space
A = Return
R3 = Y (yes)
L3 = N (no)
L1 = PF1
R1 = PF2
L2 = PF3
R2 = PF4
Select = 2 (Numpad)
Start = 8 (Numpad)
2 Player will not work. Player 1 is always recognized as both joysticks. 
 

A follow up to my FM Towns Marty Setup
125 addition games running on FM Towns II UX models
This is for use with Mame Software list CHD "fmtowns_cd" set
I have made a "Games" folder that is prepped with all user/boot/utility disks necessary.  Just drop in the fmtowns_cd CHD files into the corresponding folders.
All games are either incompatible on the Marty or require mouse input
Mouse is mapped to left joystick and L1 and R1 for buttons
I heavily modified the fmtowns_cd hash to load the needed boot/user disks to launch games.
Some games require User Disk creation from the in-game menu.
For example: Perfect Soko-ban 
For some reason the disk need to be formatted every time the game is launched.  I don't know if this a RetroArch/MAME limitation or if it will correct itself later after progress is saved.
This will be the end of my FM Towns project for now.  Between the UX and Marty model I have gotten 390 games to load through RetroArch/MAME/Rocketlauncher.
The remaining games:
- Require boot disks I cant find
-Require HDD installs (cant get working in MAME)
-Suffer from significant slowdown
-Have unmappable controls
 
I hope my FM Towns work will make this system more accessible so more videos can be created.  
 
 

FM Towns Marty RetroArch(mame - current) setup
This is for use with Mame Software list CHD "fmtowns_cd" set
I tested all 783 games and ended up with a set of 264 playable.
Conditions for included games:
Compatible with 2 virtual gamepads Boots straight to game (no Towns OS) Does not required mouse Any game left off this list will be in a future expanded FM Towns setup.
I have made a "Games" folder that is prepped with all user/boot/utility disks necessary.  Just drop in the fmtowns_cd CHD files into the corresponding folders.
I created my own hash file so make sure to download that and the retroarch fmtmarty.cfg for controls.

I've always avoided this system because there are only 3 games and its barely what I would consider to be playable. I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could make an interesting theme and completely playable with an xinput controller.

MGT Sam Coupe Setup for RetroArch (mame_libretro)
I thought this would be easy but MAME core didn't have mappable joystick or mouse controls. This limited the amount playable games but I think it was worth the effort in the end.
Main Theme/default - modified version of Nimbios72 default theme
Wheels - mostly recreated with fonts in Photoshop
Hash file - made by me  
For Xinput Controller Mapping download RetroArch(MAME) Hash and CFG.zip and place hash and config in correct folders

Atari 800 (cart only)
This is using MAME Software List Rom set for Atari 800 (a800) carts.
This will work in MAME and RetroArch (MAME-current)
Database (Games/Cart only) + Genre xml
Main Menu theme
Default theme
Wheels - Complete 
Video (mp4/png) - complete
Boxes (3D/2D mix) - incomplete 198/225

I made a version of this seven years ago.  I tracked down my old files anything else I could find but it was very incomplete.
Made Updated:
Database
Video Snaps
Wheels
All using MAME Software List names.  It works great in MAME and RetroArch (MAME-current core)

I spent many days updating my Commodore Amiga set using the database here
It was a lot of renaming and a fair bit of media creation. I ended up with 2058 games.
Wheels (Clear) - Complete
3D Boxart - 1692/2058
Videos - Complete (I got 1,891 from emumovies and renamed)
I cleaned up the genre info and made files.
I only included the remaining 167 png screenshots to complete the video set.
 
I hope this is useful to someone, I definitely could have used it many days ago!
 
 

At first, I was going to skip this system because most of the games are within the NES set as unlicensed games.
But after looking into it I feel it should be showcased as its own system.  I have expanded the game list to include all unreleased/prototype titles and split the three multi-carts into individual game listings that can use autoload save states.
 

A very obscure system but a fun little project.

JungleTac Sport Vii setup for RetroArch (MAME-current core)
I'm trying something new with "savestate_auto_load" feature.
All Multicarts have been split into individual games using Save Sate Auto Load
All settings in "HASH - CFG - Controls.zip"
I have created individual game .opt files because identical settings must be used to load my autosaves.
Someone please let me know if all this works on their setup. If so I can do more of these types of setups in the future.
Instructions:
Paste all folders into main RetroArch dir and merge:
RetroArch Options:
RetroArch\config\mame_libretro.cfg
RetroArch Game Options:
RetroArch\config\MAME
RetroArch Game Remaps:
RetroArch\config\remaps\MAME
MAME CFG path:
RetroArch\saves\mame\cfg\vii.cfg
RetroArch Game Auto Load States:
RetroArch\states
Hash path:
RetroArch\system\mame\hash\vii.xml
-------------------------------
Setup uses auto load states for multicart individual games
must have line: 
savestate_auto_load = "true"
in either mame_libretro.cfg or retroarch.cfg

Microsoft MSX2+ and Microsoft Turbo-R for RetroArch(bluemsx_libretro core)
I felt like both needed and update.
-Multi-disk entries in the database have been removed.  All multi-disk games now use a single M3U playlist file.
-RetroArch Disk Control Menu is used to switch disks.
-Hyperlist MSX2+ had a list of 65 entries but only 38 unique games. New database has 54 unique games.
-MSX Turbo-R has database now has 43 unique games.
-Included per-game OPT(config files) for every MSX Turbo-R game.  Machine Type (Auto) setting never chooses Turbo-R so setting is changed per game.
-Included remap files.  Some games need "RetroPad Keyboard Map".
Helpful tips:
Make your HyperHQ extension list: zip,ZIP,7z,7Z,m3u,M3U
When prompted to load a new disk in game:
1. Open RetroArch Quick Menu
2. Disk Control Menu
3. Load New Disk
4. Browse to game folder and select next disk
5. RetroArch will return to game "Appended" notification will display
6. Press button in game.
