Re: Compiling Xtal Basic
The reason is that mame does not support Einstein disk write operations. Or, that is what the old excuse used to be. I haven't updated my mame for a while, but suspect it's stills the same issue.

Re: MAME Einstein emulation issues

I was very pleased to find out that the person I contacted was in fact the one that worked on the Einstein 256 emulation (along with many other systems) after discussing various issues with him ...

Re: New software coming!

Hopefully we can get more games ported from the MSX in the coming weeks or months.
Enjoy.

Re: New software coming!
We have Double Dragon converted now, with Joe Blade on the horizon.
Batman 3D, Beach Head and Bruce Lee have also been successfully converted.
The future is looking very bright for Albert!!
I was wanting to get head over heels converted, but this is a 64kb rom so a no go at the present
