8kB RAM Adapter for the Sega SG-1000 implemenation

[ghost]

Forgot to put the issues on the github as well as the forum

While browsing my library of SG-1000 games, I noticed many Tawainese only games and I wanted to try them out, they are all in a non working states on Bizhawk (and also on Kega Fusion). All the games boot with the Dahjee or Jumbo Logo and reset in a loop.

I highly doubt that it will be a priority to implement that adapter for bizhawk, or if there is even documentation about the special adapter and the games, but it allow you to play a bunch of SG-1000 games. According to the reference, these are all pirated games.

Looks moderately simple on first glance...

This is mostly done, just needs the rest of the games tracked down and added to the DB

EDIT: Zanac appears to be missing, so I'll just close this and if it ever surfaces I can add the hash anytime, closing.

Magical Kid Wiz (Taiwan).SMSHawk.QuickSave1.State.zip

Sorry for commenting for closed issue. Magical Kid Wiz starts to glitched out in round 3 at any key doors and it become impossible to finish the game in intended way

More games do not work:

King's Valley (Taiwan) (Unl) : Hang on start Road Fighter (Taiwan) (English Logo) (Unl): Hang on start [Road Fighter (Taiwan) (Chinese Logo) (Unl) works perfect tho]

Does GPGX emulate these titles correctly? In dev builds, GPGX can be used for SG-1000 as well.
