Edla Game became the 50th LCD game to be emulated in BrickEmuPy. I'm not planning to stop yet, so follow along!

From the Mask ROM image, to a C#/SDL3 app! Thank you so much for your hard work @OneBitOnePixel in the extraction! Now, we revel in nostalgic wonder!
So, here are some findings: 1/3 D-Tector – uses a Sunplus SPL191 microcontroller (or something similar). The ROM die has been fully photographed. archive.org/details/d-tector

2/3 Pocket Pikachu Color – the ROM die has been fully photographed, but the microcontroller architecture is unfortunately unknown (assuming it's even a general-purpose microcontroller). archive.org/details/pocket-p…

3/3 Digivice Ver. Revival – uses a Sonix MCU labeled "SLL86F8". Unfortunately, it appears to use flash memory, meaning the ROM cannot be read optically. archive.org/details/digivice…

Received two packages today: a Pocket Pikachu Color and a Digivice Revival from @ElMadre6, and a D-Tector from @OKDecc. I’ll be working on these devices soon.

Puyolin (ぷよりん) LCD game has been dumped and emulated. It runs on a Holtek HT1190 4-bit microcontroller.

I'm currently working on an Epson RC-20 emulator. The watch has two processors: a 4-bit one and an 8-bit Z84. I'll only emulate the Z84 program execution mode, as I won't decap the 4bit MCU of these rare watches to dump mask ROM. The video shows a Chrome T-Rex demake I once wrote

D-Power Digivice EU 1.01 has finally been dumped and emulated. Many thanks to @OKDecc for sending me the device to dump. He actually sent me two of them, because my first etching attempt wasn't successful.

Tamagotchi Mini 2017 has now been dumped and emulated. Most likely, the dump contains errors, so in the future I will try to dump another copy to verify this.

Die photo of the microcontroller from a 2017 Tamagotchi Mini. The ROM image isn't good enough for automatic bit recognition, but since only ~12 kB of the 256 kB ROM is actually used, I think I can extract it entirely by hand.

Nintendo Mini Classics Soccer (1998/2004) has now been dumped and emulated. As far as I know, this is the first Mini Classics game to be dumped. I hope I come across more games from this series. github.com/azya52/BrickEmuPy

Using an 8-bit microcontroller with 32 KB of ROM for a game like this is definitely overkill.

I've decapsulated another Nintendo Mini Classics game, this time Soccer from 2004. I managed to capture an image of the ROM, so it's only a matter of time before it's dumped and emulated. commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/F…

Interestingly, there is no information on the die itself to identify the microcontroller, but fortunately, the manufacturer kindly indicated the part number on the PCB: Syntek STK55C324.

Bandai SD Gundam Gaiden II (1985) has now been dumped and emulated. Many thanks to @MilanSK46676000 for the ROM dump and reference photos used for vectorization. LCD game donated by MikeG.

Apollo Prince & Princess has now been dumped and emulated. This virtual pet is powered by a Sunplus SPLB20 microcontroller. Thanks to @ksenia1923396 for providing a copy for dumping.
