TWO MORE CLASSIC EXIDY ROMS FOR MAME RELEASED

If you remember, awhile back H.R. Kaufmann, the president of Xidy (formerly known as Exidy), began making all the titles in the company's classic arcade lineup freely available for use with MAME via the official site of the MAME development team.

Although it's been awhile since the last set of ROM releases, it appears that Mr. Kaufmann is still following through on his generous gift to classic game enthusiasts everywhere, as the ROMs for both 1980's Spectar and Targ can now legally be obtained via MAMEDev's ROM page.

Once again, I'd like to extend a huge thank you to Mr. Kaufmann for his generosity.

THREE MORE LEGAL EXIDY ROMS FOR MAME RELEASED

The Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator’s (MAME) development team has announced that H.R. Kauffman, president of Xidy, Inc. (formerly Exidy) has made three more classic games from the Exidy catalog available for free, non-commercial use with the MAME. The three titles, Crash, Fire One! and Rip Cord, were all released in 1979 and while they may not represent the best of Exidy’s catalog, the fact that any ROMS have been made available at all is still something to cheer about. Here’s to hoping Exidy’s titles from 1980 – 1982 are next, as some of those are games I’d love to see everyone get to enjoy again.
