There were ok at one time but through refactorings and rewrites something got mucked up. You can play it with a mostly good experience with the Flip Screen ON, as described. In the future, use "F12" to create a snapshot. I'm not interested in what shows on screen, but what the emulation says you should have on screen. Closing as Duplicate.
