Good deal - I'd love to contribute. Is there any group of games you're aiming to support now (such as early Atari), or are you pretty much planning to hit them as they come? Planning to stick to non-rom/prom titles for a while, etc?
Just wondering what era I could start with and it be helpful sooner. I have to admit that the games I'm most personally interested in are those near the end of the logic arcade games lifespan, but I'd like to help with the early stuff as well even though I'm not as familiar with it.
