NEC PC-8801 emulator (QUASI88). It covers the machine: PC-88.

1. Installation

  1. Download the latest version from the project's official website.
  2. Extract the archive into a dedicated folder.
  3. Launch it once: it will create its configuration and subfolders.

2. Supported formats

.d88 .t88 .zip

ZIP archives load directly, with no need to extract them first.

3. Good to know

  • These machines often boot to a command prompt: the game is launched via a command, not a menu.
  • Emulation speed matters: too fast, and the software becomes unplayable. Look for the speed or cycles setting.
  • The keyboard is the main input device; the emulated layout may differ from yours.

4. Not working?

  • The game doesn't show up → check that its file extension is among the formats listed above.
  • The software runs too fast or too slow → adjust the emulation speed before anything else.
