Edla Game became the 50th LCD game to be emulated in BrickEmuPy. I'm not planning to stop yet, so follow along!

Another version of Hitorikko has been dumped. The code is exactly the same, and only the sprites differ. Unfortunately, the decapping didn't go perfectly, so there may be errors in the dump.

ohh! Cool !!
Waiting for puppy 🐶

I don't have Puppy and Fish yet, but I hope to get my hands on them too.

The Hitorikko Chicken v-pet has been decapped and emulated. Since I don't have its original shell, I had to improvise its appearance a bit.
I've often encountered this type of die in late-90s games, so this dump opens the door to many more.
Thanks to @ksenia1923396 for the PCB!

Oooo wait can I send you a tamagotchi 4.5 pcb and a music star pcb to decal? 👀👀 I’d love to get roms for those.

Thanks for the offer, but for now, I'm not ready to return to this Tamagotchi line after the V3, due to the very large ROM size.

That's excellent. Were the ROM bits optically identifiable? If it was an implant ROM, how did you stained gates?

Yes, it’s an implant ROM. I described the staining process here: github.com/azya52/BrickEm…

1/2 Cheap Chinese LCD games from the 2000s–2010s often use very similar chips, typically marked with just a year. Based on their appearance, their cores seem to be some variation of the 6502.
Here are some examples:

It's impressive that you are able to do this!!! I'm amazed by your results! 👏👏

What's even more impressive to me is that AI can already handle tasks like this on its own.

How did you determine its a 6502?

The core's appearance and the popularity of the 6502 in games like these.

Это я снял ролик про семейство лучших портативных консолей. Есть у кого-то DS в социальной сети Экс? Ссылка на видео в комментариях.

Спасибо за ролик! Купил после твоих стримов по Марио)

Added D-Tector emulation to BrickEmuPy. github.com/azya52/BrickEm…

How does a normal person get the rom off their device?

Unfortunately, without a microscope and a bit of chemistry, this is impossible.

From the Mask ROM image, to a C#/SDL3 app! Thank you so much for your hard work @OneBitOnePixel in the extraction! Now, we revel in nostalgic wonder!

So, here are some findings:
1/3 D-Tector – uses a Sunplus SPL191 microcontroller (or something similar). The ROM die has been fully photographed.

Pocket Pikachu uses a Sharp LH5801 derivative, cheers

Wow, thanks a lot for the info! Could you clarify whether someone has already decapped and examined the PP Color's MCU, or where this information came from?

2/3 Pocket Pikachu Color – the ROM die has been fully photographed, but the microcontroller architecture is unfortunately unknown (assuming it's even a general-purpose microcontroller).

3/3 Digivice Ver. Revival – uses a Sonix MCU labeled "SLL86F8". Unfortunately, it appears to use flash memory, meaning the ROM cannot be read optically.

Received two packages today: a Pocket Pikachu Color and a Digivice Revival from @ElMadre6, and a D-Tector from @OKDecc. I’ll be working on these devices soon.

Any chance you have your hands on a Tamagotchi Devil?

Unfortunately, it uses an unknown microcontroller.

they are in beautiful condition 👀

Yes, unfortunately :( I still prefer broken or battered units – it doesn't feel as bad breaking them.

Last night puyorin was made working on my website thanks to your work. It’s incredible really.

I think having these games working easily on phones is the best way for people to enjoy them in 2026
Thank you 🙂‍↕️
I’m also trying ESP32 s3 port for dedicated microconsole device.

Great work! Is this a public site?
