I guess it would probably drop right in to the Bally Astrocade driver?
The problem is getting the code off of those 8" floppies, if they are still readable by now, and then assembling it into something that will run. Fenton said it was written in FORTH, like Professor Pac-Man, which runs on the same hardware.

But what if the game has never run on anything but the development system that Fenton was using? Would it be "right" to compile the code and then create a "ROM dump" for use with MAME from that?

Imagine MESS emulating the development system that were used to write the Astrocade games, and compiling Ms. Gorf on it yourself
