Solar Assault on MAME ??

Post by copy-paster »

It's been a long time since on MAME list, this game was playable but it isn't perfect. Anyone knows whether on the latest MAME version is playable through endgame?

Also does the Revised ROM version exists?


*Note : For those who don't know, it's another Gradius game with 3D gameplay.

Played for some time and too slow sometimes to be playable.

Playable since 0.147 though sound and graphics are still imperfect.
There's even a longplay around.
Like most 90's 3D arcade games the thing screams "play me in a dedicated cab!".

The longplay video using some settings, I don't know how he can do that.

DIP-switches (ingame TAB) or TEST menu (ingame F2) maybe ?

The right question would be "does it still crashes on stage 3?".

Yeah it's a sit down cab. There's an overpriced one that's been on eBay for it seems like years for $3500. Wish I could try it one day.
