MAME Info:

0.121u3 [Guru, David Haywood]


WIP:

- 0.143u4: Angelo Salese provided some cheesy hacks to allow 'Magical Zunou Power' to boot.

- 19th August 2011: Angelo Salese - Out of curiosity, I've checked Magical Zunou Power on ST-V and its serial communication with the self-called sub board. Game talks with "something" via a serial port, and it does your usual serial checks (buffer Rx FULL, buffer Tx FULL, END flag, time out). Not knowing the protocol used this is quite annoying to HLE, so for now I've hacked the comms checks. It ended up that the game is all about a quiz game based off a Japanese TV Quiz show, that uses a microphone in order to give answers, that obviously isn't doable with current MAME I/O framework.

- 0.137u1: Added magzun.nv NVRAM.

- 0.128u1: Changed description to 'Magical Zunou Power (J 961031 V1.000)'.

- 18th October 2008: Angelo Salese - Checking at magzun (ST-V driver): It will check a "sub-board" and it hangs because of that. I need to do some testing to get further of this.

- 0.121u3: Guru and David Haywood added Magical Zunou Power (Sega 1997).

- 30th November 2007: Guru - Magical Zunou Power (STV cart) just arrived today from Japan.
