Does anyone remember when Windows 95 came out, and there were a couple of Game Sampler discs made by Monolith. These sampler discs had you exploring one of two space stations, and in a part of these space stations were 4 rooms of game demos.

I'd like to set something like that up with RMMV. Not with anything huge, or modern... maybe a couple of NES or Gameboy ROMS or something... Is something like that possible?

I dont think there are any plugins for attaching an external emulator to mv. Using roms is also illegal.

What you can do is change graphics and gameplay from one room to the next. This way you're playing a different game inside your game. I did something akin to that in Retro Geemu, in which the real world is represented by a style of graphics that is way different than the gameplay portion of the game, which is in NES graphic style.

You can make all sorts of minigames just using the events assuming that MV isnt too dissimilar from XP. If you dig into the creation tools, you'll be amazed with all the things you can do. And Mirak's advice for changing graphical style is a good idea too.

Do you mean like something I did in No Gold for Brigands.
I have 4 mini games, including pong and a top down shooting game.
