This is an amazing development - the hardware was only identified a few days ago and now the 6578, the first ever enhanced NES on a chip, is emulated along with three of the early plug n play systems that used it

The Bandai Gamepad from 1997 is possibly the first ever original plug n play as we know them today
Also worth noting for the unlicensed game liker crew is the example sound driver bundled with the documentation for this platform is one that originated with Sachen
Both the Bandai Gamepad and City Patrolman use it
The 6578 originated with UMC, long time maker of Famiclone chips, and was spun off into their Novatek division and then to somehow-affiliated Sinowealth after that
But it seems to have gone out of production around 2001-2002 leaving a gap that would be filled by the VTxx chips
(It was also thought that the first Atari Flashback used it, but that's actually running on standard NES clone hardware)
