Summary	09547: reset button not emulated
Description	On the Sega G80 games, both raster and vector, the reset button is not emulated. It is not available as an input setting. The general setting of "memory reset" does not reset it either.
Steps To Reproduce	1) Start any Sega G80 game (Astro Blaster, Monster Bash, 005, Space Odyssey, Star Trek, Zektor, Tac Scan, etc.). 2) hit tab 3) select "input settings" 4) select "input assignments (this system)" 5) search for "reset" (FYI, you won't find it)
Additional Information	hitting reset should reset the game to a boot up mode sequence. Currently, in MAME, if you are in self-test, the only way to exit is to turn the game off and start again. On a real game, if you are anywhere, including self-test, if you hit reset, the game immediately reboots.

No.24686 cuavas Administrator 11 hours ago	Just use the general soft reset input. Unless you can actually show that the reset button does something special where not resetting everything is important, there’s no work needed. Also, it seems every report you open is just a result of misunderstanding MAME. It’s a waste of people’s time having to deal with it. Think carefully about what this means.
