Is there an Aquarius emulator?

spyhunter99 commented 9 years ago

there is, there was only 20 or so games for it. understandable if you don't want to add it. i would imagine there's no valid scrapper source either

Enverex commented 9 years ago

MobyGames and a few other general game sites have at least some of these games, e.g. http://www.mobygames.com/game/mattel-aquarius/astrosmash

When you say "Add Platform", are you referring to adding it to the scraper? ES only uses 2 sites for scraping, TheGamesDB and Archive.VG, TheGamesDB doesn't have Aquarius but Archive.VG does...

<system>
  <id>21</id>
  <title>Mattel Aquarius</title>
  <short>aquarius</short>
  <tosec></tosec>
  <image></image>
  <description></description>
</system>

So there's a possibility there if that's what you're referring to.

I will at least add it to the theme, scraping could be successful too, if you use ARCHIVE.VG.
