2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

MAME (originally an acronym of Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) is a free and open-source emulator designed to recreate the hardware of arcade game systems in software on modern personal computers and other platforms.

As such, it can be used to emulate most - if not all - CoCo variants, including clones like the Prologica CP-400

Installation

Windows

The installer can be downloaded from the official MAME site

macOS

Linux

Setup

In order to run MAME, you will need the ROMs from the computer being emulated. They can be found in the TRS-80 Color Computer Archive, under the ROMs section
