Tiger Game.com emulators

There are 2 emulators of the Tiger Game.com .

They are MAME, and the unnamed development emulator.

In MAME, all the games work. There's a slight bug at the start of Indy 500, but it has no effect on gameplay. You can get it at https://messui.1emulation.com/ or https://mamedev.org/release.html.

The unnamed emulator runs all games except for Jeopardy. The download and instruction are below.
