Jaleco Mega System 1

Unread post by mcmister »

Are we likely to see a Mega System 1 core for the MiSTer?

There were some really good games released on this platform, such as 64th Street : A detective story and Saint Dragon amongst others.

I started the MiSTer core. I'm only focusing on RodLand for now. I have a couple of projects to finish so don't expect it to arrive soon.

This is great news. Once you are done will it play all Type A games and what about B and C? I have a few C games, but would love some of the older A games!

Thanks for your efforts, no rush but we're excited to see the results!

I would have to create a ROM decoder for each type A game and enable or disable decoders in MRA but yes it's possible. About B, C and Z, they have different architectures unfortunately...

Oh my gosh. Rodland is a awesome game. I have fond memories of playing this on my Atari ST and will really enjoy being able to the arcade version on my MiSTer. I am looking forwards to this so thank you for giving it your time.
