MZ700GBA is an emulator for the person computer Sharp MZ 700 sold in Japan and Eurpoe by Sharp in 1987.

Installation

Note: Requires MZ-700 IPL ROM image (and compatible ROM) and MZT images to use.

Create an appropiate config file. Refer to the attached MZ700GBA.CFG).

Run MZTMERGE.EXE with the config file specified as an argument.

Nintendo headers are not included, so if you want to burn it to a Flash cartridge, you'll have to figure it out yourself.

Included are 2 precompiled sample roms, Build Popper and Zeplis (both games have been made freely available).

Config file

CORE - Specifies the filename of the emulator core.

  • M7GBA_GP.BIN for game pack (08000000h).
  • M7GBA_JC.BIN for Hikaru no Go 3 Joy Carry Cartridge (09F00000h).

IPLROM - Specify the filename of the IPL ROM image (1Z-009A).

TITLE - The title of the tape image. Up to 16 alphanumeric characters.

TAPEIMG: file name of the tape image.

A - MZ-700 key assigned to GBA A button.

B - MZ-700 key assigned to GBA B button.

L - MZ-700 key assigned to GBA L button.

R - MZ-700 key assigned to GBA R button.

START - MZ-700 key assigned to GBA START button.

Character string that can be written in the key:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMN
OPQRSTUVWXYZ
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
( ) * + - = @ ; : , .
SPACE CR CTRL SHIFT BREAK
KANA GRAPH EISU INS DEL
F1 F2 F3 F4 F5

Hu-BASIC program

If you rewrite the Hu-BASIC MZT file header from offset 40h as follows, you can automatically execute the BASIC program immediately after Hu-BASIC.

0040: 50 41 54 3A 3B 12 0C ED F4 07 ED F4 08 ED F4 05
0050: ED F4 06 7A 26 06 05 52 55 4E 22 0D FF FF 41 4B
0060: 50 3A 09 80 3C 78 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
0070: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

To automatically run a BASIC program, enter RUN"[CR] in the F1 key, and after loading BASIC, it will be perfromed internally when pressing the F1 key.

Therefore, in addition to 'PAT:' of MZ700Win, 'AKP:' which performs key input automatically is extended. To do so, specify the 4 bytes after 'AKP:'

  • Strobe of MZ-700's key matrix.
  • Key to be pressed (pressed where bit is set).
  • Wait time from loading to key press (0-255, 1/60 second unit).
  • Time when key is pressed (0-127, 1/60 second unit).
