It doesnt

Cv1000-D has this chip too. Its at U10 which I think all cv1k-d games populate. They dont however have battery backup for the rtc, so they just have access to the eeprom part of it, and I guess the RTC will be reset each boot.

Cave wasnt gonna make new arcade games anyways. They havent released any new arcade titles in 12 years. There's zero indications that they'd want to do non-mobile games any more. Yeah I mean, this is much more complicated than the typical bootleg, especially with the legacy part sourcing. Will...

Kuro is cool but feels like a weird romhacked Ibara rainbow edition

Literally no chance thats happening. Would be very surprised to see boards drop much below 1000 tbh

Nope DFK 1.51 had no public dump. It was a matsuri only pcb. Its included in ports though

Nice :) Dunno how many of these they have parts for, but hope its a lot. My legit AK will probably tank in value, but its cool that more people get access to these. Shame that theres little reason to make boots of the cv1000-b games currently though. Like, Ibara is the best Cave game imo...

What are you offering for it? I have one and am considering downsizing collection a bit. Have a ”Kraut Buster MVS LE Shockbox LE + Gamecenter Kit ” which should be complete with everything incl posters, dogtag…

Its beneficial for the buyer that has to spend thousands less to play the game?

Nha, its a separate debugging connector that has adress/data lines and stuff like that. It has no use for anything relevant for gameplay or jtag purposes.

It's a bit complicated imo, but the tl;dr for me is that I think these bootlegs are awesome. My understanding is that there is potential for sprite glitching, since the type of issue seen in that MBL can happen if you just take the raw rom from mame and write that to a compatible NAND Flash...

Yeah if its busted in mame as well then it could also be the dump having a block gone bad prior to dumping My guess though is that its just the conversion not caring about factory bad blocks of the ic being written to.

That glitch is almost 100% due to programming the graphics rom without adjusting for factory bad blocks on the nand programmed. Should be fixable with jtag Its an easy mistake to make. See...

I've done it, with the wrong screwdriver and definitely stripped some screws slightly... but I mean it worked. But yeah, recommend getting the correct driver. Once you do that, it's really not complicated.
