SETUP:

- In Williams Multigame you can select 6 games: Bubbles, Defender, Joust, Robotron, Splat and Stargate

- When you first start WMG, you need to initialise the NVRAM properly. Do this by starting wmg, pressing 1 to cycle through the games list, pressing 2 to run the game. When it says "FACTORY SETTINGS RESTORED", press F3 to return to the menu. Repeat this procedure for all 6 games. After that, quit wmg, then restart. On the Setup menu you can personalise the settings with the 1 and 2 keys. The inputs default to be the same as on the original hardware. You may change any input individually for each game. Note that the WMG hardware has the Flap and Inviso buttons wired together. JOUST can be played by 2 players at the same time, player 1 uses the left joystick and the Flap button, while player 2 uses the right joystick and the Fire button. SPLAT would normally require 4 joysticks, but since the WMG only has 2, it is limited to a one-player game. Cocktail mode is not supported, WMG must be played on an upright only. After playing a game, returning to the menu will return to the place you left from. You can force a return to the Setup by holding F1 and pressing F3. You can also clear out the menu's NVRAM (not the game's NVRAM), by holding down L and pressing F3.


WIP:

- 0.180: Small refactor. Btw, bankdev was tried, but too many bugs resulted [Nathan Woods]. Added 2nd Player.

- 0.179: Replaced DAC sound with MC1408.

- 0.154: Moved blaster-specific stuff into subclass [Alex Jackson].

- 11th May 2013: Mr. Do - Now that it is in official MAME, the artwork for Williams Multi-Game has been moved from the Other Artwork page to the Official Artwork page. Scanned bezel provided by Mr. Do. On loan from Gene at Vintage Arcade Superstore. Cleaned for MAME by Ad_Enuff.

- 0.148u2: Robbbert added 'Williams Multigame' (hack (Clay Cowgill) 2001).

History


Arcade Video game published 18 years ago:

Williams Multigame (c) 2001 Clay Cowgill.

Came with most of the popular Williams games like 'Defender' and 'WoW'.

- TECHNICAL -

Williams Multigames would come in some pretty basic looking cabinets with the names of all the games it came with and the words MIDWAY where the marquee what go. The monitor was pretty small as well.
