>...we were able to pick up KiKi KaiKai for decapping.

Another game to hopefully be fully rescued/preserved from a dreaded mcu.

-
6801U4 MCU DIP40 Game: Kiki KaiKai Label: A85-01 @ 8H
-


Meanwhile, Team Europe worked on another mcu "...a protected 8751H from his [f205v] Street Figher (bootleg)."

-
The next interesting fact was, that this dump matched the other existing Street Fighter mcu dump, which was added to MAME.

https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/140ba5147df230751a87a62374eba8880f5d3dbe


The previous dump was only possible, because an unsecured 8751H was found. Anyway, this confirmed the existing dump!

The best way to donate/contribute for MAME is for Dumping Union (DU)?

Yes. The vast, vast majority of the devs don't take direct donations, because it changes the entire dynamic of working on a hobby project. The DU, meanwhile, always needs funds in order to acquire more things to dump.
