Ha ha - same here 86, 7E, 39, 20, 26, 27, 01, etc give me an immediate flash of the associated instruction in my mind (which were thankfully mostly similar for the 6800 as well).

Woohoo, I now have the 6840 timer and interrupts working with the MAME emulator. The only thing that isn't implemented is the sound chip connected to the PIA (and the PIA).

It's probably all the images that you have . I have a few wizzards (Creativisions) and many other 80's computers/consoles and are based in Auckland.

I suspect so. I think all of the multicarts (that I've seen), have all the games that are also available from CreatiVEmu.

Yes, I remember the Dick Smith Wizzard very well. I remember it as the first colour video game console (or "computer"), that I ever had a chance to play on. Hence, the nostalgia element in it for me. I never actually owned one back in the day, as all of my teenage earnings had gone into a System 80 at that time. The first colour computer that I owned, as I recall, was the C64.

I've just updated the initial post with a link to Part 2, where I share my CreatiVision Controller design journey.

The Post / Video is a bit longer than my usual, as I wanted to ducument my design journey, instead of just demonstrating the end result.

But, for those who manage to last to the end, there is a... one more thing! :)
