Congrats arcade game! That's one of the best beat'em ups and hard to find an original like that.

I love that you collect naughty Qix clones, System11. Makes my day every time. Cool to see a Guardians PCB pop up as well!

Well, collecting popular shooters is not a challenge, it's just an expensive grind, everything can be had. Try finding a Perestroika Girls though, that's hardcore collecting. You can get Battle Garegga any day of the week ;)

Or trying to source one of those prototype PCBs that don't see the light of day very much -- let alone be shown at a public gaming venue (say like, at the annual California Extreme show). The Atari Games' prototype cab of Deep Freeze (running off of modified Atari Jaguar hardware) had it's 17th annual showing at the 2013 CAX show (and get this, it was shown at the 1st CAX show when it made it's grand debut back in 1997). I recall giving it a spin at the 1998 CAX show when it was hosted inside a former bookstore location in San Jose, CA. From the sticker placed on it in years' past, it'd mention that only three cabs of DF were produced in their entirety (would've been interesting to see how it would've fared at arcades/game centers worldwide if it was green-lit for production).

I had the rare opportunity to try the prototype cab of Crystal Castles at one CAX show -- it had a different control panel layout compared to the production CC cabs that Atari Inc. cranked out back in 1983. Not something you'd see everyday, y'know? As usual, it wasn't for sale at any price. Yep, CC is an ol' favorite of mine...back during the Golden era of arcades in their prime, the early 1980s. Tis a shame that Atari Inc. never did produced a proper CC sequel follow-up to it (the spiritual successor of CC, Gubble, really doesn't count in my book). I'd imagine a 3DS port of CC would give it a slick 3D makeover (with the obligatory three-dimensional depth to it for maximum effect/impact/punch).

System11, I really would like to talk to you about this Saint Dragon artwork you've got. We need to preserve this material at any costs. I believe this game is one of the most underrated games EVER! and because of that, I just cannot find its artwork/original stuff anywhere.

Please PM me or send me a message at roger_coltrane@yahoo.com.br .

Thank you
Roger

Nice get! Great game and highly overlooked for some odd reason. Not the prettiest graphically, but once you get a feel for the controls, it is so tight to play. Switch your stick to 2way if you can, makes it even better.

I'm a pad-player so no such option, but my Saturn pad serves me well here. I know what you mean about the graphics, the title screen especially looks like it was put together with WordArt. Luckily the game is good enough to make it easy to overlook the visual mishaps.

World Rally 2:

Still doesn't emulate well. Which is a shame, as it's pretty good and maybe even better than the first. The graphics are better and more consistent, the tracks are a bit more interesting (there's many shortcuts now), three cars to choose from, though I can't say if there's any difference between them. Many little touches of improvement here and there.

I paid £50 + shipping. Not really sure what the board usually goes for, but didn't feel too bad to me.
