Wow I didn't know they coded Mariocart To the Ti99/4a.   :lol

Usually when I have a front end that is emulator specific, I have to link it to the directory of the rom via a batch file, so when I exit the game the emulator FE can then revert back to the screen and gain control.  What FE are you using?  I will have a play with this, as  it looks cool.

If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.
