This release is the least interesting release ever.

All of the titles but two are completely Japanese and unplayable, either mahjong or quiz games. Two of them survive this:

Dancing Eyes - this is an Amidar-like game where you trace in boxes on a 3D model. The model is always a girl in scanty clothing, and completing blocks removes whatever was covering her up. It's a pretty decent game but you need a VERY FAST CPU to play it.

Super-X - I was about to give up on the entire set of new titles, but the last one (alphabetically) is really quite good. It's a whole lot like Truxton, right down to the weapons' colors and effect. If I did a little research on it I wouldn't be surprised if it were a sequel or off-shoot of some kind. Definitely worth playing and supports 2 players at once.

Yep and it looks like they removed a couple of games too :angry:

Funny about those mahjong games. Ever since I saw this page:

I've had an idea in the back of my head about making a mahjong only MAME machine.

I think I'll go through my MAME roms tommorrow during my numerous breaks at Chubb to see which rom sets still work or not...
