With @aaronsgiles and Colin Howell having a go at adding netlist-based sound emulation to various 70's classics in MAME, I just had to get in on the action.
Have a video of Ramtek's "Star Cruiser" running with emulated sound, rather than samples recorded off a cabinet.pic.twitter.com/YOiH98ttfJ

So this is actually being SPICEy to emulate VCOs etc? That's really cool!
It really is! MAME's been able to do it for years, which is how things like Pong and Breakout are emulated, as well as audio for a whole host of 70's-era arcade machines that pre-date commodity sound chips. It's just that more and more people seem to be realizing it.
