MAME 0.255
As you may have expected, it’s MAME 0.255 release day! Following on from April’s breakthroughs, Namco System 10 MP3 audio is now supported, making Golgo 13: Juusei no Requiem, Seishun Quiz Colorful High School and Nice Tsukkomi fully playable. On top of that, Point Blank 3 and Gunbalina now run, and the later version of Gamshara has been dumped correctly. If you like rhythm games, more than half a dozen Pop'n Music titles are now working. Lots of LCD and LED games were added this month, including two Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games from Konami, Super Goal Keeper from Tronica, and two sports-themed games from Tomy.
Remember the Motorola 88000 CPU architecture? It’s OK if you don’t, it never achieved the same market penetration as its rivals MIPS, SPARC and POWER. But that makes it really cool that two Omron workstations based on 88100 CPUs, the Luna 88K and Luna 88K², are now working. This release also adds support for the Psion HC 100 series of hand-held computers from the early 1990s. These devices found their niche as portable data collection terminals. Support for the ZX Spectrum’s many descendants continues to grow, with the Sprinter Sp2000 arriving this month.
Of course, there are lots of other changes, including software list additions, bug fixes and general emulation improvements. You can read all about this month’s development adventures in the whatsnew.txt file. The source code and 64-bit Windows binary packages are available from the download page.

Mildly concerned that the next version of MAME will cause the version number to wrap back around to 0.

Why does a byte only have 0 to 255?

Why does a byte only range from 0 to 255?
A bit there that I can imagine tv show Barney Miller’s tv show character Det. Arthur Dietrich ( Steve Landesberg) would have said in one of the episodes.
fyi part: Det. Arthur Dietrich was the brainiac of the detectives that knew details of topics and was the detective that explained about anything that the others on the show were unsure of. A walking encyclopedia with a unique sarcastic quality with snappy comebacks. My favorite character on the series was ‘Marty’ who Jack DeLeone portrayed very well. The character was entertaining along with Jack Soo playing Detective character Sgt. Nick Yamana. Jack Soo was funny as well.

I don’t recall if that specific version was worked on recently.
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/mame/midway/midyunit.cpp
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/bbc...yunit.cpp#L3592
GAME( 1992, mkrep, mk, yunit_adpcm_6bit_fast, mkla4, midyunit_state, init_mkyturbo, ROT0, "hack", "Mortal Kombat (Reptile Man hack)", MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE | MACHINE_NOT_WORKING )
Thread from when a pcb was found in April 2016 when Smitdogg announced the pcb at the time.

Reptile Man (Mortal Kombat hack) found

It uses a custom daughter board to stop people making rom swaps but it's a different type than we have seen before. Super rare.

Something that could have been mentioned at the time in the source code that an add on board with some custom chip making emulation a challenge for that version. I didn’t look to see who added support of those hack versions back then in 2016. Maybe another thread elsewhere providing exact details of why not yet emulated.

It's adorable that you think we used a uint8.
