Novo Poker II...
Grull Osgo got access to a board that turned out to be Novo Poker II. It's an Argentine hack of American Poker II with some differences and spanish language.

Now supported in code and to eventually appear in next official release.

>It’s nice to have Grull back!
Yep. Now let's see if that old entry on Robbie's page is the real thing of Ms. Pac-Man Twin (Susilu, 93), but probably an April Fools comedy bit for 2018.

Could be possible after 20 years trying to catch a ghost?

I will have to admit that if it is, it was a clever one, but Gridle's 2002 Sega System Model 2 MAME WIP screenshots April Fool routine from old MAME.net web site era will never be beaten.

The purported "owner" threatened Robbie with legal action. Personally, I think the so-called "owner" of a bootleg can just fuck right off and eat a dick up, particularly given the dangerous precedent that giving in to spurious legal demands sets, but ultimately it's Robbie's choice whether he wants to be better safe than sorry.

indeed, no reason MAME should listen to, or attempt to be friendly with a bootlegger at all.
they have absolutely 0 legal ground to stand on, it's not their product in the first place to threaten robbie over.
given the game isn't even commercially viable these days, this seems more like somebody wanting to rewrite history to cover their own back. MAME is about showing history as it was.
the LAST thing MAME should be doing is being friendly with the bootleggers because from the outside that makes it look like we're in bed with them. By removing it Robbie is actually endangering the project more than by leaving it in.

Yeah, I'll re-add it when I get home. Mr. Bootlegger can come and fucking get me.
Edit: OTOH, maybe someone outside the EU should do it.

I'm not a developer, but if I got access to the SVN, I am happy to be the guy who does it for this and anything else that has copyright threats. I am way way out of the EU.
