        Mame 0.250 version is out now :
        https://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=121625#Post121625

        With every new version more stuff should be working.
        For 0.250, more handhelds are added.
        If you find a rom you can just place it in the corresponding roms directory and it should work if you update the mame version.

        Somehow, we have to work on updating the lists and extract this from mame or the what's new file.

          @Folly nice i will do that!
          i want to mention the Sinden guys have a hack version of lr-mame
          the install is called " lr-mame-StormedBubbles"
          they also have a few hack versions of other mame and mess
          the install plays 3 "plug and play" light gun games

          Mission: Paintball Powered Up (pballpup) - Perfect accuracy correction. Needs "Boot from CLI" enabled in core options.
          Star Wars: Clone Trooper Blaster Game (swclone) - Perfect accuracy correction. Needs "Boot from CLI" enabled in core options.
          Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant & Monster Mayhem (tmntmutm) - Perfect accuracy correction

          of course this version of mame launches more than 3 games
          but figured I'd mention it since these are plug and plays and maybe it could open more doors?

            We have to test those games . For Jakks, 50% of the roms doesn't work or work with a Wii remote. I'm working on classich at the moment .. I'll check if new "working" systems had been added after.

                Do you want them to be added to category all_in1 ?
                I think a non-arcade lightgun category is more appropriate, don't you think ? (is not yet there but can be created in add-systems-mamedev)
                We can already sort on lightgun in the database and there are probably more similar games.
                Another problem is that automating a category becomes more difficult because it becomes a compilation of quite some different stuff.
                That means obviously more manual editing a category.
                This is probably not the route to take.

                What do you both think @Retrodade @DTEAM ?

                  @Folly yeah, I know what you mean.
                  they put them in its own category of "plug n play"
                  they are like jakks I guess? I have mine in arcade since its not LCD and I think 1 or 2 were tiger, I forget the other, thought it said Jakks, but no title load screen on one I believe, but the net search just shown a gun to plug into the TV
                  I'm just passing the info since they are plug n plays
                  but where they belong? that's a good question.
                  put them where you feel is best

                  I don't own a sinden, but their custom versions of Mame have great accuracy for light guns

                      Hi Folly, are you able to run tsimquest.zip or 7z (Tiger - Castlevania Simon's Quest). I'm not able for now !

                      You can update the binary, it's now 250.
                      The game works.

                          Hi , I took a look and it's fine. They are "plug n play" and they were commercialized. @Folly, I think we could add them to "all in one", what do you think?

                                  I see you are already working in the future ;-)
                                  Perfect.

                                    nice I been working on scrapes for myself on odd systems, felt i could get caught up on handhelds. I made these but no video (something at least) anyways you probably have everything all done but ill share mine in case the two I had no luck in finding here are my handheld scrapes I managed to do (maybe this can help )

                                      If you want to participate to our effort to create gamelist and "scrapes", go here . It's the the thread associate to our project for that. You'll find what we already done and our folder structure here.

                                        @DTEAM thanks! will take a look
                                        I checked quick I did a few systems running mame/mess you don't have scrapes for, like Gameking and Sord M5 and a few others that I made myself...not sure if my style would interest everyone but, I'd be glad to share if there is an interest
                                        if not that's ok too

                                        I will check out your list deeper thanks

                                            @DTEAM I stumbled across these that worked

                                            mc_hh210.zip
                                            mc_105te.zip

                                            mc_sp69.zip

                                            3 worked in mame-autoskip , 1 was in mess
                                            seemed like multi plug n plays and a handheld

                                            not sure if this is useful info, or maybe u have them included already?
                                            anyways I didn't see them in your list so figured I'd mention.
