The other half of the lack of fun is that the "arcade classics" are ports on dumbed-down hardware and the originals generally just suck. But yeah, artwork for the controllers is probably a must smile

Unfortunately, this one guy's r�sum� seems to be the only thing listing the hardware on which some of these games run, and he didn't work on either of those. That said:

* Disney Fairies � GPAC800/Accelerometer
* Power Rangers � GPAC800/Accelerometer
* Spiderman Masked Menace � GPAC500
* Star Wars:Clone Wars - SPG243 Lightgun
* Leapfrog - SPG243 BaseROM
* Toy Story � SPG243
* Animal Art Studio - SPG243
* Nemo � SPG243
* Fantastic Four � SPG240
* Spiderman � SPG110/GPAC300

Other folks' r�sum�s list:

* Spongebob Squarepants Dilly Dabbler - SPG110
* Super Silly Makeover - SPG110
* World Poker Tour - SPG110

I saw one of that Vii consoles another day...
For me that runned under a rom into console, without cart...

The built-in ROM is actually just an internal cartridge that gets switched out. I've already told JD it should be made into a BIOS that optional carts override, but he's lazy smile

Well, as the driver is clearly marked as a skeleton driver and it's clearly marked as "not working", you shouldn't worry about any driver-related issues at this time.

Fujitsu FM-Towns / FM-Towns Marty / Car Marty

Noticed that the memory-mapped ports at 0xcff80-0xcffff are mirrored in I/O ports 0xff80-0xffff.

Prince of Persia is now very playable, except that the Japanese text is wrong.

That's interesting - it looks like they reproduced the graphics from the Apple II Double Hi-Res screens complete with artifacting. Or is the graphics emulation not correct yet?

Other than the wrong Japanese character being displayed in places, I think it's otherwise pretty much correct. While I'm not terribly familiar with the Apple II, this version reminds me of the X68000 version, just somewhat faster.
