Ketsui was removed for Batrider, but is now back in.
RF Jet monitor fixed, but joysticks still awful.
Galuda out, replaced by V-5.
Strikers +, Night Raid, Mushi and Progear are still there.

Troc
Raiden II, Raiden III, Air Assault, Strikers 1945, Majestic Twelve (SI pt4).

The Ketsui choice was Randorama's, as he wanted it in for London Meet III.

The only other 'chosen' game is V.V.
The rest of elbarto's list are the regular titles chosen by the arcades themselves.

Strikers 1945 Plus is staying in, because Mills has just stated that he wants to finish off both loops.
V.V will stay in until Mills and I get back up to the 2nd loop final Boss which was always our sticking point :?
Ketsui will stay in until a chair gets thrown at it.

Considering the enormous stress factor of the game, this could happen anytime. Better remove all the chairs from the arcade. :wink:

Damn, is Mushi not there any more? I really need to make some time to go down there again, I only had a breif go on Ketsui last time I was there and it seemed an excellent game.

Yeah, I'm going down to visit my old boy soon and was looking forward to seeing how the mushi pcb looks and plays compared to the port.

I suppose ketsui will have to do :wink:

Okay thanks . . .

. . .never seen Ketsui - something to look forward to.

And I remember V Five from years ago when the Soho arcade had it - very decent as I recall . . . :D

lol, shouldn't take too long at this rate.
(perhaps the real reason behind Giga Wing Generations quick removal has been revealed? :wink: )
