This, for example, has no immediate punning appeal that I can see, here goes:
You’ve impressed your friends with the Sente Diagnostic Cartridge
You’ve witnessed first hand the thrills and spills of the DECO Test Tape
Now, prepare for the ultimate challenge:
Not one, but TWO MPU4 Unit Test ROMs!
OK, sarcasm doesn’t really work that well in print, and I know that, to the average user, these two new ‘games’ will be unquestionably tedious, but they’re going to be excellent for troubleshooting the emulation.
I now have a test fixture made in artwork I can use to do this, it won’t make MAME or AGEMAME release builds just because it’s a particularly quick and dirty hack into some of the FME ‘core’ drivers, but behind the scenes it’ll be working hard to find even the slightest malfunction. So far it’s found the TRIAC hookup, and a timer error, and I’ve only run it for 10 seconds!
