Phoenix Arcade Emulator is an emulator of two classic arcade shooter games, Phoenix and Pleiads, which were released in the 1980s. It is based on the E++ emulator created by James Sutherland in 1997.
This emulator is created as a tribute to very first years of emulation, when mame only was multipacman emulator and single arcade emulators were awaited and celebrated.
Installation
Note: You must prepare your own romset in order to use this emulator (uncompressed).
For 3DS version (Gateway users only), create a folder named roms on the root of your 3DS SD card. Inside create a folder named phoenix and copy uncompressed roms inside. For Pleiads, create a folder called pleiads with uncompressed pleiads roms.
