Nice! I love frontends. And this one looks slick. Will give it a try.

Nice one synchro.
Are you planning to combine all your launchers in a single program one day? It would be nice to have something like CoinOps for the PC.

johnim · 25 June 2013, 19:21

Thanks for great feedback guys.. Makes it all worthwhile....

Need some ideas for the next launcher now ?

@Neil79
Thanks for the Review mate.......Brilliant !!

@paul773car
Sorry mate hope you got your sleep

I had to test every game so I know what happens.....Just test this one quickly......and an hour later

Neil79 · 26 June 2013, 17:55

Amstrad CPC 464 launcher, so we can play Dizzy in all it's glory

or

Atari 2600 launcher

I believe you were doing a SNES launcher or have done one, but the link has been down for some time.

TurboGrafx-16 Launcher?

List is endless

Yeah coinops rocks on the xbox. Its a pain in the ass to set up but hyperspin on the pc is worth checking out too if you like coinOps.

Arnie · 26 June 2013, 22:53

Brilliant, love it.

Just one question, is it possible to add games and if so how do you do it?

Sorry I create my launchers as I go....The whole idea is ..Install ..Click and play...No setup required...

But I do update them ...For instance the C64 Arcade launcher is on version 3.1.....

You can still grab it from my W.I.P site here...

Worth a download if you haven't seen it..

lesta_smsc · 26 June 2013, 23:31

This is great! It would be nice if it had an internal 'update' feature to save a entire re-download.

Add more games to the amiga one?

By the way why is this arcade one not on your download page?

Cpt. Hindsight · 27 June 2013, 09:22

+1 for an Atari VCS and a PC Engine launcher.

Its only a demo site....Hosting all my stuff wouldn't be cheap for me so im still on the fence whether to actually finish a website for them all ?

OK fair enough, sorry wasn't complaining, just asking that's all, your launchers are awesome. It really would be nice to be able to add games though, as there are loads of games that I'd like in the Amiga launcher, but I understand that would be a lot of work to do.

The latest Arcade launcher though seems to have all the main classic games already in there so no worries there

Hello mate, thanks for this great collection. Just one question, because I can't seem to be able to find where the bug comes from. Basically all games that I tried work fine when I set the gamepad settings, except for the metal slug games. None of them recognize gamepad input. I can't even change the mappings if I go to the menu (TAB). But in any other game I can set the general or game specific input for the gamepad.

And even after setting the general input in another game, in metal slug my chars do not move at all
