MAME and PlayChoice 10 games

Hi,
Is there a way to start MAME with more than 1 game at a time using the Play Choice BIOS (or other way)?
example: Looking to run the Play Choice 10 BIOS and have it load ten specific games, so that all ten slots show games.
Thanks, Jason

At this time, no there is not.
There are some other base systems that leverage the softlist system to do these things EG: guab, megatech, neogeo, stvbios, smssdisp and likely some others I'm missing. I suspect there are complexities which make implementation difficult using the current methods. There has also been discussion of replacing such functionality with something more internal and not requiring separate softlists since they are all pretty much just duplicates of the hard coded MAME rom definitions anyway. Implementation timeframe is unknown.
One at a time for now, I'm afraid.

Interesting, I didn't know about the Master System Store Display Unit, it can load 16 games at once... or is it 32 games (16 cartridges, 16 cards) ? Can you load 16 carts + 16 cards at once ? Or just carts... or just cards ? Or 16 games, but mixed carts and cards ? I have a few sms cart games, but no card games (can't find them anywhere).
I need to add support for this multi-games set in my frontend... the other multi-cart systems are already supported.
