    most of them do , unless they need extra ram (f.e. Street fighter, samurai spirits ect)

    ps.
    all marty games will work on the towns pc aswell , as long as the pc is using the original twons os.

    It's not "all" games unless they need more RAM. There's plenty of that don't run on Marty 1 or 2. Genecide 2, in fact, does not work on the Marty. There used to be a list of games that worked (in Japa nese) but it's been taken down, AFAIK. You might want to try the user Azazel on my forums -- he knows more about the Marty than anyone I know.

    sorry , my posting was unclear , so here is another try : all of the FM Towns games will work on a Marty 2 system unless they need more ram. (i`m not counting the "newer" ones that need a pentium cpu to work)

    and yes , Genecide 2 is working on a marty 2 system, thou it will not work on a with a marty 1 .

    Yourtom try genocide in TV, not monitor, it probably will not work on marty 2, if still works, how you run it? I already tried with floppy disk inserted first but doesnt works too

    I read before that some fm towns games doesn't run in marty plugged in TV, only work plugged in monitor

    So, I still need the list of games that works in marty but without monitor, because about if need extra ram and monitor problem I will not found information on japanese game box

    I think that list is long gone.
    I tried a copy of Genocide 2 on my Marty 2 -- it didn't work, and was told by the person I picked the game up for that it wouldn't work. I guess you got a magic copy. :)

    Yea, yourtom may have any special trick to run genocide 2 in marty 2, my copy only comes with CD but in box I can see space for one floppy disk, it really comes without floppy disk? If comes with floppy you must insert it before to run like Secrets of Nadia for FM towns on marty

    no floppy disc , only the game cd.

    today i tested it on another Marty 2 system and it worked aswell.

    maybe it depends on the os rev. version of the marty ?

    If you want to post the Japanese, I can translate it if that would be useful.

    Feel free, it is all for a good cause + I need all the practice I can get or I start to slide. Also it makes a change from translating really academic Japanese, this week "Kojiki", which is written in ancient Japanese - think chaucer without the humour. Only compensation is this form of pre-modern japanese is called Hentai Kanbun!
