๐ฆ THE CITIZENS HAVE SPOKEN! TAITO TYPE ZERO JOINS TEKNOPARROT! ๐ฅ
Democracy delivers. Another legendary arcade system has been conquered!
The TeknoParrot National Assembly voted, the citizens made their choice, and we delivered.
Introducing TeknoTZero, our brand-new Taito Type Zero emulator, bringing another generation of Japanese arcade experiences to Windows!
7 games. 9 revisions. One completely new emulated arcade system.
And we're not just making these games playable. We're bringing them into the modern era with high-resolution rendering, ultrawide support, VR, online multiplayer, rollback networking, and much more.
๐ฎ SEVEN GAMES. ONE NEW FRONTIER.
Our initial TeknoTZero lineup includes:
๐๏ธ Battle Gear (v2.40A)
๐ Battle Gear 2 (v2.04J + Side by Side conversion)
โ๏ธ Landing High Japan (v2.01OK / v2.02O)
๐ Power Shovel ni Norou!! (v2.07J)
๐ Densha de GO! 3: Tsukin-hen (v2.03J)
๐ช๏ธ Stunt Typhoon Plus (v2.04J)
๐ Raizin Ping Pong (v2.01O)
From Japanese racing legends to flight simulators, railway operations, heavy machinery, and competitive table tennis, an entirely new arcade library opens its doors to the TeknoParrot Nation!
๐ CLASSIC ARCADE GAMES. NEXT-GENERATION VISUALS.
Powered by our Vulkan renderer, TeknoTZero takes original Type Zero graphics far beyond their arcade hardware.
๐ฅ Up to 8ร internal resolution scaling!
๐ฅ๏ธ Native expanded widescreen: 16:9, 16:10, 21:9 and even 32:9!
๐จ Advanced image enhancement: SSAA, FXAA, Lanczos, bicubic filtering and custom CRT shaders.
๐บ Authentic arcade presentation: CRT effects, bezels and aspect-ratio controls.
โก Performance tuning: Frame pacing, VSync, rendering optimizations and FPS monitoring.
These aren't simply stretched images. Supported games receive expanded 3D camera views while preserving their original HUD layouts.
Your favorite arcade classics have never looked like this!
๐ฅฝ YES, WE EVEN BROUGHT TYPE ZERO INTO VR!
Why stop at ultrawide monitors?
TeknoTZero supports stereo 3D and OpenXR virtual reality!
Experience supported arcade environments with separately rendered views for each eye, adjustable 3D depth, customizable virtual screens and headset controller support.
From racing circuits to aircraft cockpits, this opens up an entirely different way to experience Taito Type Zero.
๐ THE TEKNOPARROT ONLINE EMPIRE EXPANDS!
Of course, we couldn't introduce a new arcade system without bringing multiplayer into the future.
๐๏ธ Battle Gear & Battle Gear 2
Race through native cabinet networking over UDP with support for up to four linked cabinets. Supported revisions also offer two-player TPOnline rooms.
๐ Power Shovel & ๐ Raizin Ping Pong
Two-player arcade action across separate PCs, powered by UDP networking with rollback!
And here's something special:
Own Widescreen View! Each player can enjoy their own full 16:9 camera and HUD instead of sharing a traditional split-screen display.
With TPOnline and Local TPO integration, another collection of arcade games becomes part of our expanding connected ecosystem.

๐๏ธ THE POWER OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY!
This is exactly why we created the TeknoParrot National Assembly.
Our citizens voted for Taito Type Zero. We listened. Our developers got to work. And now another arcade system joins TeknoParrot.
This isn't just another emulator announcement.
It's proof that the TeknoParrot Nation is building its own future, one citizen vote at a time.
Every new system strengthens our platform. Every new game expands our library. Every new online integration brings our community closer together.
And with future National Assembly votes, YOU help decide what we conquer next!
Thank you to every citizen supporting our mission and making ambitious projects like TeknoTZero possible.
LONG LIVE THE TEKNOPARROT NATION! ๐ฆ๐ฅ
