Add: Model 2 Emulator (Sega Model 2)

Open devhowyalike opened this issue 8 months ago • 4 comments

Sega Model 2 and Model 3 systems do not perform or run reliably in MAME.

By comparison, the standalone Model 2 Emulator delivers significantly better speed and compatibility.

Please add Model 2 Emulator as an alternative emulator to MAME.

The Model 2 Emulator is abandoned and has not received any update since 2014.

Builds

https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Model_2_Emulator

The emulator is a .zip and it's a Windows EXE file.

Their website have been removed as have the repo.

The last build is included here:

m2emulator.zip


Challanges:

  • We don't have WINE inside of RetroDECK
  • We don't have UMU Launcher
  • It's a Windows binary without the source
