# Libretro port of AmiArcadia/WinArcadia/DroidArcadia by James Jacobs.
# Emulates Signetics 2636 PVI / 2637 UVI + 2650 CPU systems:
# Emerson Arcadia 2001 and clones, Interton VC 4000 family,
# Elektor TV Games Computer, Zaccaria and Malzak coin-ops.
#
# No external files required. These systems have no separate system ROM;
# all code runs from the game cartridge. The core auto-identifies known
# ROMs by CRC32 via games.h lookup table.
