Working Emulator for ColecoVision & Intellivison

rasp_renegade

Hi all, does anyone have any pointers to get these running? I have many other emulators that work well and trying new ones out. It is for Emulationstation on the pi 3 and/or 4. I tried quite a few roms and none will load (no errors on screen).

@rasp_renegade All emulators are working, read the documentation for the emulators you are using, it'll help.

Ahh now I see the section I need, thank you. Yes I had no doubt they all work, just some need extra steps apparently.

The docs are great but I have no idea where to find the BIOS files for either of these (also cannot find for Atari800 or Atari5200).
For Intellivison for example, there is a link for GitHub but exec.bin nor grom.bin are nowhere to be found. I tried random placed from the internet with no luck. What is the secret? Where do you get them?

Ok, so I am not blind. LOL The BIOS files I found elsewhere did work, but stupid me, I forgot to restart EmulationStation. This is great, thank you once again. =)

@rasp_renegade hello. As with ColecoVision and Intellivision...all emulators....Google is your friend for any BIOS/ROM files. And also keep in mind, there are variations to some that you have to keep trying versions until you get the right one.
