Hi!

Very nice updates today. There's another Nintendo game being updated to the most recent "Standard 4": Lifeboat from the popular Multi Screen series.

The simulator has been completely re-programmed and is now even more accurate in timing, graphics, sound. And the graphics is better and larger than before (see website for comparison)

I'm also releasing an updated version of the previously released game: Mario Bros. with brighter LCD display, sound samples at higher quality, and a few minor enhancements and fixes. New files:

- Lifeboat (Nintendo, Multi Screen) S4/1.05 (Standard 4, complete rewrite)
- Mario Bros. (Nintendo, Multi Screen) S4/1.03 (Standard 4, enhancements and fixes)

Get the two new files and the popular "MADrigal CD Collection" ver. 57.9 from the download page. Enjoy!

Question, why are the new displays so dark? Can't see what's happening. Anything wrong with your display setup?

i use a "epson perfection" scanner, which gets perfect colours, matching the original games.

the original displays are darker than in other handheld games.

about the current mario bros simulator: i brightened the display graphics a bit, it's now much better than the previous version.
it's brigher, but it's not 100% true to the original game, which has darker display.

fyi, i can play PERFECTLY on my PC with a common lcd monitor, both on lifeboat (darker) and mario bros (lighter).

i can't believe you can't even see what's happening on the display. the lifeboat is darker than before and this is normal because the previous graphics was hand-drawn, not scanned. but it's well playable.

please consider tuning your monitor brightness. this might make sense.
