He must have found a killer secret cache of unemulated unknown games though... - Stiletto Smitdogg Reged: 09/18/03 Posts: 16877 Send PM Re: Grasspin [Re: Stiletto] #301266 - 12/24/12 05:44 AM Reply It's some time capsule pirate treasure spot in Italy. Probably all from the same warehouse. Every few years this happens and it really is "too good to be true". Like when we got the Russian games. You can't put a price on it.

I remember that i have seen it on those years back,but i don't remember so well,maybe it is clone,of some other game,of a most known company! Tafoid I keep on testing.. testing.. testing... into the future!

It's better known as a game called "The End" with various bootlegs supported in MAME - this appears to be another bootleg. Still would be nice to have a home in MAME, though nzvion MAME Fan Reged: 05/24/08 Posts: 3 Send PM Re: Grasspin [Re: Tafoid] #301406 - 12/26/12 07:37 PM Reply @ Tafoid Thanks my friend!It is a clone of "the end" game really! By the way,do you know if the new found game,Grasspin,is also clone of another game! I had it in my list,i start to write on those years,exactly as Grasspin,but i am sure i have seen it in MAME database! Also i have in my list a game named "fantigue" ,(about 1980),i don't remember it at all,and as long as i search on the net,i didn't find a clue! These 2 are the only games i can't identify from a list of more than 1000 games,i have in this old list (1979-2000) when arcades were forbiten in my country! Thanks in advance! joey35car MAME Fan Reged: 02/07/07 Posts: 1112 Loc: Planet Claire Send PM Re: Grasspin [Re: nzvion] #301407 - 12/26/12 07:53 PM Reply Looks like that guy has a few clones that are not in mame. Maybe a dev can reach out and ask him to dump some of those roms for mame. Here is a clone galaga that is not in mame and a clone of astro fighter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLWOsVlOZl4&list=UUFfRXslVK2_m8jhSxlr3LMA&index=5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erGQiTtBJrM&list=UUFfRXslVK2_m8jhSxlr3LMA&index=10 Edited by joey35car (12/26/12 08:01 PM) Stiletto They're always after me Lucky ROMS!
