ColecoDS got an update to version 9.4 this week with some improvements for the Tatung Einstein. https://github.com/wavemotion-dave/ColecoDS I've also curated about 150 standard 200K .dsk images that are now all auto-booting into their respective games (a continuation of the .mad. GameBase effort of ...

I'm glad you got it rocking, Mike!

I hope the effort was worth it

Progress :) So perhaps we haven't got a proper BIOS. There are three places you can place the BIOS files - I put mine in /roms/bios This is the Eienstein BIOS I use - it must be exactly so named: * a746eeb6 einstein.rom (Tatung Einstein) If that fails... try loading some common Colecovision game ROM ...

Okay, got some feedback over on gbatemp Both said that it's possible your firmware is old enough to not detect newer homebrews. The suggestion was to install another launcher on your card - either something sophisticated like TWL++ (Twilight Menu++ which is awesome) but properly much simpler is ...

I put the call out on GBATemp... I'll let you know if anything turns up!

Hey Mike... not specifically familiar with the M3 card (I usually use R4 clone cards - the cheaper the better! Or on the DSi/XL/LL, I switch to use the SD card). For my R4 clone cards, I must put the .NDS file in the root of the SD card - it won't find it anywhere else (limitation of the R4 I think ...

Yeah, for sure MAME has gotten a bit bloated over the years. It's still a marvel and has done more for the retro community that most other software combined so I'm very grateful for it. Some nice things about the DS is that it has 256x192 native resolution which is the same as the TMS9918/29 video ...

Thanks for the kind feedback guys. I'm definitely a fan of the Albert - if only because I spent so much time reading through the hardware manuals (and this forum) in an attempt to understand this beast of a machine. The only other emulator that I know of supporting the Einstein was MAME (formally ...

Greetings Programs! For the past few years, I've been working on a Colecovision emulator for the DS/DSi/XL/LL. It's called ColecoDS and over the years it's grown to include 10 "cousin" systems that share similar hardware (mostly Z80 CPU with a TMS9918/29 VDP and SN or AY sound chip). Obviously the ...
