The results of my experimentation (and thanks so much to answering my questions when I got stuck) have blown me away. You're effectively running PC games on your PC, so it's far less demanding than emulation. This means that the process of getting them on your home PC isn't the traditional emulation route (where your computer is emulating a different machine entirely) but an arcade loader (where a loader program sorts out what you need to run the original PC based code on your own PC at home).
For a particular era of arcade games (2005 up to the present day), the games ran on PC hardware and were written in regular PC code. So, what I learned this week is that there's a type of emulation that isn't really emulation in the traditional sense. Only the Easy track can be raced for 2 laps in the demo.Updated OP after a week of playing about with this. Daytona USA Deluxe added a new track, a CD soundtrack, and 8 player network play. The PC port features the original "Arcade Mode", as well as a "PC Mode" that adds extra features like time trials. Daytona USA had revolutionary graphics in its day, featuring texture-mapped polygons to look smoother than any previous racing game. Besides the obvious goal of winning the race, the player must also beat the clock to continue to get time added to their race clock. Players race a stock car on their choice of three tracks, and get to choose between manual or automatic transmission. Pentium 90 MHz or faster (Pentium 133 MHz or faster recommended)ĭaytona USA is an impressive Windows port of the first Sega Model 2 arcade game.
