alexnelson Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Hello I have made my collection of Bit Corp Gamate Roms works whit Launchbox. I have Box art and metadata notes for most of the games. the problem is, since Launchbox don't have a data base for this system I can not save them in the database here so other can use them for their collection. from wikipedia The Gamate, known as 超級小子 (pinyin: chāojí xiǎozi, literally "Super Boy") in Taiwan and 超级神童 (pinyin: chāojí shéntóng, literally "Super Child Prodigy") in China, is a handheld game console manufactured by Bit Corporation in the early 1990s, and released in Australia, some parts of Europe (partly the UK, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Greece and Finland) and Asia (Taiwan and China), Argentina, the United States, and possibly other regions including South Africa. It never sold in numbers comparable to the Game Boy or even the Watara Supervision, and as a result information on the console and its games remains scarce. The only emulator that supports it is MESS.[1] Over 70 games, not all dumped, are known to have been produced for the system. Manufacturer Bit Corporation United Microelectronics Corporation Type Handheld game console Generation Fourth generation Lifespan 1990–1994 Media ROM Card CPU UMC UA6588F (earlier revision) NCR 81489 (later revision) both 6502 based Memory 16KB RAM Display LCD in 4 greyscale Graphics 160 x 152 pixels Sound General Instrument AY-3-8910 mono internal speaker Power 6V, four AA batteries Dimensions 16.7 × 9.7 × 3.3 cm (6.58 × 3.82 × 1.3 inches) thanks 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibbawho Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I second this. A little late but this should be added. It has over 50 games and emulates easily in mame. Seems a glaring oversight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibbawho Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 The omission of this little budget handheld is a crime. It has over 50 games and deserves a proper place among the launchbox db family. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
