I added possible systems to add :
commit 4

You can definitely go ahead for those (excepted Thomas and Friends)

Driver bndarc (Arcadia (Bandai)):
Driver bmcfball (Classic Football (Bambino)):
Driver cpacmanr1 (Pac-Man (Coleco, Rev. 28)):
Driver ebknight (Black Knight Pinball (Entex)):
Driver efootb4 (Color Football 4 (Entex)):
Driver einvaderc (Space Invader (Entex, COP444L version)):
Driver epacman2r (Pac Man 2 (Entex, red Pacman)):
Driver esbattle (Space Battle (Entex)):
Driver gpoker (Poker (Gakken, 1979 version)):
Driver mbaskb (Basketball (Mattel)):
Driver mchess (Computer Chess (Mattel)):
Driver mfootb2 (Football 2 (Mattel)):
Driver mhockey (Hockey (Mattel)):
Driver msoccer (Soccer (Mattel)):
Driver tmy_thom (Thomas and Friends (Tomy)):

For Game & Watch below:

Driver gnw_bfightn (Game & Watch: Balloon Fight (New Wide Screen)):
Driver gnw_climbern (Game & Watch: Climber (New Wide Screen)):
Driver gnw_dkcirc (Game & Watch: Donkey Kong Circus):
Driver gnw_smbn (Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. (New Wide Screen)):

They are already covered by Madrigal romset or it's a different version like gnw_smbn and gnw_smb.
We should add them.

For Jakks (not playable) and those 2 :
Driver mdallas (Dalla$ (J.R. handheld)): --------> Board Game
Driver megajet (Mega Jet (Japan Mega Drive handheld)): -----------> Portable MegaDrive

It's a no go.

I'll work on the gamelist.xml files to add them and try to find some artwork for them.

Now you said, I looked into the folder.
Indeed they are already there !

Back then, you already added some future stuff ;-)
Magnificent !

Looking nice.
Can you find the download link ?

unfortunately no

@Folly

gamelist.xml for classich has been updated on Google Drive. Game and Watch was already ok.

The list in post #2 has been updated too, according post 68

[Folly]

@dteam

This driver is missing :
Driver gnw_egg (Game & Watch: Egg):

Can you have a look, I think we can add it.

I tried in both mame and lr-mess .
Adding it to the script array will generate config files and background overlay for lr-mess.

[DTEAM]

@folly
Thanks. I added it.

@dteam

Can you do the gamelist too ?
