Home Page Forums MAME MAME PC-98xx WIP/screenshot thread

One of my favorites







I *think* I played the English version on the Amiga, but still, this is pretty neat

The Amiga didn't have Nectaris - but there was Battle Isle .
The original English version came out for the Turbografx, and there were updated installments later for DOS/Playstation.

Yeah, I realized this too. The game on Amiga I played was "Full Metal Planet" (this was well before Battle Isle), and Nectaris was on DOS

Added reset/set functions in uPD7220 draw pixel routine. Fixes at least AdventureLand gfxs:

Fixed Xevious scrolling:

This got fixed recently (Bakasuka Wars, a paint tool):

Improved keyboard, now games are definitely more playable:

Thanks to DFJustin, I've got how to start a play in Prince of Persia.

It basically requires an user disk, you have to format it thru the 6th menu item (ユーザーディスクを作成), then start a new game via the first sub-menu. Game fully playable, thanks also to the aforementioned keyboard fix.

Nectaris looks great, effective use of 'dithering' to simulate more colors.

I find it interesting just how much better 16-color 640x400 games look on the PC-98xx than they did on IBM-PCs of the time, as with the PC-98xx you could select the 16 colors from a palette rather than having them completely fixed. Although you're still limited to 16 colors, you can choose a palette more fitting for your game.
