Phil Stroffolino Namco System 21 News
Phil Stroffolino has posted some news regarding his development for Namco System 21 hardware emulation in MAME:
I’m in the process of working around the last few issues affecting System21 emulation, including successful workarounds for lockups in Air Combat and Solvalou, emulation of scanline effects, and color glitches.
But one thing that really would be nice is a standalone emulator that can run these games full speed with more modest CPU requirements. As it stands, I can run Starblade only in slow motion on my development laptop, which isn’t much fun.
Towards this end, I will be packaging and releasing a emulator that runs System21 and System22 titles with hardware accelerated graphics and statically recompiled DSP code.
Any suggestions for a name and/or features would be welcome.

Excellent news, after Vivanonno went quiet I’ve been hoping a new emulator would show up. I hope it can also do Super System 22 as that would mean full speed Time Crisis!
