Honestly, I'm just kind of surprised that you've been part of these forums since 2004, but have never realized that asking MAME devs "when" never garners a serious answer.

The simple fact is that none of us know, ourselves. The only person responsible for TX-1 V8 is Phil Bennett, and it's entirely up to him when and if he has time to work on adding it.


There's this weird idea people have that we're paid for our work on MAME, or are otherwise answerable to anyone other than whatever deity we choose to believe in (or not). If a developer wants to work on a given thing, then that's great. If a developer wants to work on some other thing, that's great, too. If a developer wants to take a break from working on MAME entirely, that's also great, it means his or her family gets more attention.

I know we all really desperately want our free games, but at the end of the day, try to understand that people can and do work on whatever interests them at any given moment. There are no time-lines, there is no time-tracking software, people just work on whatever interests them at at the time. That does mean that sometimes it can take months or years for something to show up in MAME that seems like it should only take a small amount of effort - but that's life.
