Rare is right... neither undumped list nor the arcade history websites have heard of that.
(Disinclined to add it until I learn more about whether it isn't some MAMEDEV "gotcha" prank though...)

And I thought Haze was the overparanoid one... albolo gave us Planet Probe. Chances of this being a prank are 0%.

I know I know...
He must have found a killer secret cache of unemulated unknown games though...

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.

There is also a ultra rare arcade of 1980, here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPYX3yJORTE
but the uploader of the video,and probably the owner has disabled the comments,and that was back on 2009!
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!

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

@ 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!

Yasu and his sources have never really heard of this one either. Amazing.
