Writing a new game to run on emulated hardware. Anyone tried it?

Or you could write for http://belogic.com/uzebox/index.asp

I'm not sure how many (if any) completely original games it supports, but check out HBMAME (Home Brew MAME)

I've never tried it.

Seems to be a bit of ice skating uphill to me.  I think if you wanted a large audience you would lean towards to html5 or unity or something that runs on android.  I know there was a lot of poo-pooing of the OUYA, but each unit is supposed to be a DEV box.  So there is that.  Or even something like the raspberry pi.

*shrug*

If your goal is to write a dedicated program that runs on an old board, I always enjoyed the Capcom games from the late 80s. 

I think no matter what platform you choose, you need solid game play.  As an arcade enthusiast, I'd like to see old school games with modern art styles.  I'd prefer that they be hardware agnostic so that I could load it on my PC today, and on a different PC in 10 years.

I'd play the android & iOS game crumble zone on PC if I could.  By now, my promotion of Super Hexagon should precede me.  I'm really looking forward to Lovers in space-time.  But I digress.  None of this is what you asked for. 

Best of luck

A group released a few new games for NeoGeo, as well as Dreamcast ports of the same games.

Under Defeat and Rardigy were released after the apparent demise of the Dreamcast.  I thought Trizeal was too.  Beats of Rage was release on multiple platforms
