      I was wondering if anyone had success in getting Bally Astrocade to run on Retropie under MESS, MAME or any other emulator? If so can they share their set up steps please? I see that Bally Astrocade may run under MESS. See this site for more info www.ballyalley.com/emulation/emulation.html . For those unfamiliar with the hardware, the Astrocade is a second generation home video game console and simple computer system designed in 1977.

          @edmaul69 Thank you. Is it possible to provide what folders to place the rom and bios images? For Channel F what are the settings/locations that worked in the past?

                    What were the eventual settings and / or files you needed to get this operational?
