I'm sure you are wondering what a "reverse fundraiser" is. Well a few weeks ago we had a successful fundraiser for 2 games, but when the 1980s one arrived, it was broken with one of the main rom chips fried dead. But fortunately I got a full refund so we didn't lose any money at all (even got the shipping costs refunded). So now I am working to get some interesting things with that money, and I will credit everyone who donated then on the games we get with the money.
The first game we got with some of the money (and some help from ShouTime) is the ultra rare Sega ST-V game Sky Challenger.

Are you able to tell us what was the broken 80's game you originally got?

I don't want to do it in public right now because the seller tried to fight me on eBay and lost and I'm positive he's sore about it and might want revenge so it's not really worth complicating that situation right now.

I wonder how many of these 30 second ticket redemption games Sega made for STV
Also wonder if this one uses the standard bios or expects a custom specific on that we don't have like one of the others Shou dumped (which checks for a (c)2000 BIOS too)
Judging by arcades today and the number of ticket games like this which seem to change every few months I guess there are probably hundreds even from the period.

Does anyone know the meaning of those circles glued on many Japanese second-hand games (console, arcade, computer ones)? I've seen green, yellow, red and blue.
