Sega Naomi

[Nediw]

Hello!  I just purchased a license for Launchbox Android, and I love it! Great job! However, I was trying to add the Sega Naomi platform but couldn't find it. Sammy Atomiswave was in the platform list and worked great though. I guess I can get the roms to work since they use the same emulator. But I would also like to have the nice box art:-). Did I miss anything? Any tips or ideas? Best regards Andreas

Hi @Nediw, I have Sega Naomi on my list of platforms to add. I should be able to add it soon.

Hi there. Just wondering if there's been any update on the Sega Naomi platform for Launchbox on android? Thanks.

Whoa, that should be killer. As an arcade fan, I would love to see banners for all those different but major arcade sections, like Sega Naomi, Capcom (CPS1-3), Atomiswave (this is already in there). Thanks for this awesome frontend.

Hey, my Sega Naomi is not running games, I think it's something to do with bios... Anyone ran into that problem?

You are probably right.

What emulator are you using, and what BIOS files did you use and where did you place them? (Retrroarch->Flycast, Flycast standalone, Demul, ...)

I'm using Retroarch->flycast core, for both Naomi and Atomiswave. Haven't placed any bios anywhere... Not sure how to do that. I guess this is more of a backend issue rather than LaunchBox.

Btw I'm running it on a Nvidia Shield.

What you need is explained in the Retroarch documentation for the Flycast core.

I'm guessing this is an android problem, I would be curious to know if anyone has made Atomiswave and Naomi run using Retroarch in a Nvidia Shield running latest Android.

Sorry, can't be any help here. Missed you were on Android initially.

Only suggestion would be load the core and then in the Retroarch check the Information section in Quick menu and verify BIOSes are correct. Maybe also set the option to bot into the system and see if it crashes loading without a game.
