+notes: |
+  mGBA Splitscreen is a fork of mGBA that runs 2-4 linked GBA cores in a
+  single libretro instance over mGBA's lockstep SIO driver. Built from
+  the upstream mGBA tree with -DBUILD_LIBRETRO_SPLITSCREEN=ON
+  (CMakeLists.txt:1036-1058), the fork adds the mgba-splitscreen link
+  fixes (Four Swords handshake assist and a gated deadlock kick) on top
+  of mGBA's library layer. The player instances live in
+  src/platform/libretro-splitscreen/instances.c and reject anything that
+  is not a GBA ROM (instances.c:114-119).
+
+  The splitscreen wrapper never performs its own BIOS lookup. Each
+  per-player mCore reaches mGBA's shared GBA core, which looks for
+  gba_bios.bin in the system directory and uses the built-in HLE BIOS
+  (src/gba/hle-bios.c) when it is missing. The core-info declares one
+  optional firmware entry (gba_bios.bin) and only accepts the .gba
+  extension, so GB/GBC/SGB BIOS files that upstream mGBA supports are
+  unreachable here.

+  PlaydiaEmu is a Bandai Playdia emulator written in Rust by Aloys, built
+  as an HLE disc player: it streams dual-track MODE2 CUE/BIN (plain or
+  Redump-style ZIP), routes F1/F2/F3 video fragments, decodes XA ADPCM
+  audio and the AK8000 video. The Playdia MC68HC05 CPU is not emulated.
+  No BIOS or firmware is loaded.
+
+  retro_load_game (crates/playdiaemu-libretro/src/api.rs) opens the game
+  file alone. The core-info declares firmware_count = 0
+  (crates/playdiaemu-libretro/playdiaemu_libretro.info:19), and the
+  playdiaemu-core crate reads only the user content: CUE/BIN tracks and
+  ZIP archives from the game path (crates/playdiaemu-core/src/content.rs

+notes: |
+  Rust-DOS is an x86 DOS emulator written in Rust by dividebysandwich,
+  with a built-in DOS, BIOS, XMS, EMS, DPMI host and software MIDI
+  (OPL3). The README states "no DOS or BIOS images needed" and the
+  libretro core declares supports_no_game = "true" with no firmware
+  entries (libretro/rust_dos_libretro.info).
+
+  Three optional firmware families enhance accuracy for games written
+  for specific sound hardware. All three have HLE / software fallbacks
+  that keep audio working without the ROMs.
+
+  - AWE32 sample ROM (awe32.raw): the Creative Sound Blaster AWE32's
+    1 MB sample ROM. src/awe32/rom.rs:13-17 declares FILE_NAME and the
+    required SHA-256. Without it, the EMU8000 synth still plays what
+    programs load into its sample RAM but ROM sounds are silent
+    (src/awe32/rom.rs:4-6).
+
+  - Roland Sound Canvas ROMs: a Rust port of Nuked-SC55 covers the
+    SC-55, SC-55mkII, SC-55ST, CM-300/SCC-1, SCB-55, RLP-3237, SC-155
+    and SC-155mkII. src/sc55/rom.rs:131-295 lists 13 romsets, each 4-5
+    ROM files identified by the SHA-256 of their contents whatever the
+    filenames are. The settings window can download eight of them from
+    the Internet Archive item roland-sc-55-series-roms
+    (src/sc55/download.rs:12-24, 39). Without a complete set, MIDI
+    falls back to the OPL3 / soundfont / GUS synths
+    (src/sc55/mod.rs:116-120).
+
+  - Roland MT-32 ROMs: played by munt (libmt32emu) loaded at runtime
+    (src/mt32.rs:1-6). munt identifies the control+PCM pair by its own
+    SHA-1 table internally; rust-dos does not declare hashes. Without
+    them (or without libmt32emu on the host), midisynth=mt32 fails and
+    the other MIDI backends take over.
+
+  The libretro frontend adds its system directory to each loader's
+  search path (libretro/src/core.rs:148-157), so BIOS files sit next
+  to the core like any other RetroArch firmware.

+  SimCoupe is the SAM Coupe emulator by Simon Owen. The modern 1.2.x

+  the SAM community added. Memory.cpp:180-189 picks atomlite.rom when
+  either drive is configured as drvAtomLite, atom.rom when drive 2 is
+  drvAtom, and otherwise stays on samcoupe.rom. The default option
+  atombootrom = true (Base/Options.h:46) enables this path, so a user
+  running an Atom-configured machine needs the matching ROM; a plain
+  SAM Coupe never opens them.
+
+  sp0256-al2.bin is the Microchip SP0256-AL2 allophone data loaded by
+  the Blue Alpha VoiceBox device (Base/VoiceBox.cpp:35-40). VoiceBox is
+  enabled by default (Base/Options.h:124, voicebox = true) and the
+  constructor opens the file at reset; if it is absent the SP0256
+  stays zero-initialised and the device returns silence to any program
+  that queries port 0xFF (Base/SAMIO.cpp:538-539, 760).
