I am desperately looking for a 100% working Gundhara PCB. Seems this board is cursed, because I only found PCBs with graphic problems yet. :(

So it seems MAME does not emulate everything but omits some problems of the real hardware. ;-) Thank you very much for the confirmation! I was afraid I bought a faulty board. :-)

Bought an Aliens pcb and while playing and in the attract mode, I noted some strange pixel lines. If you watch the linked video (attract mode, fight against Alien queen) you see that there are dottet lines of pixels here and there. Is this normal for the real board? I ask because in the opening...

Bought a nice DK pcb from eBay and tested it today. At first everything worked fine, but when I reached the 3rd loop and the conveyor belt stage came up, there was something terribly wrong. The sound of collecting a bonus looped endlessly, they conveyer belt did not work (no pies, and Mario did...

Thanks. I will try to find someone or maybe I will buy an eprom burner. I guess as an arcade collector this is a good investment.

Thank you for the fast reply. Unfortunately I don't own an eprom burner to verify the eproms. In test mode they pass the mask rom check though. Do you rule out a hardware problem? If so I would buy some eproms with the AAC version from someone I know. :-)

I bought a Violent Storm PCB at eBay and found the "behaviour" a bit strange. The range of the grabs and sometimes even normal punches is to wide. For example, I often grab enemies that are not even visible on the screen and I don't mean because my sprite is at the border of the screen, but this...

The japanese Star Blade Alpha does have english voices (radio-communication) and text but it will not run on your US PS3. Tip: if you have the old PS3 that can play PS2 games, get Tekken 5. In it an emulated Version of the Star Blade arcade version is hidden and can be unlocked + it has analog...

You mean our famous "Bergkirchweih"? It's not as known as the Oktoberfest in Munich, but many like it better, because of the trees surrounding the beer-cellars. http://www.der-berg-ruft.de/

*blush* Thank you for the warm welcome. @Phetishboy: it is allways nice to hear that someone studies german. :-) But I also heard that it is quite hard to learn and when I reminisce about the dictations we took in school, I quite believe this. For example, even for us native speakers it isn't...

Thank you for the welcome. :-) Since nobody complained that they got physical damage by reading my text, my english can't be that awful. ;-)

... or Franken, to be exactly. :-) Warning! Warning! A huge text is approching fast! ;-) First I have to apologize in advance for my english. It's obviously not my native language and I am afraid there will be dozens of grammatical and literal errors in my texts. My love with arcade games...
