In the 90s, the Spanish company Picmatic produced three laserdisc arcade games: "Los Justicieros" (aka Zorton Brothers), "Marbella Vice" and "Tierras Salvajes".
Marbella Vice was therefore the second title, released in 1994. A supposedly parodic title (just check the similarity of the well-known title Miami Vice), whose laserdisc video content has recently been digitized and made available on the Internet Archive.
If anyone is curious to see what it was like, video is available in Spanish and English audio tracks: https://archive.org/details/marbella-vice-picmatic-1994-laserdisc-pal More info (in Spanish): https://www.recreativas.org/noticias/202...de-picmatic-632

On that subject, just because I know that people watching through the footage will see it and panic - that distortion at the bottom in parts of the video is on the real thing as well. With it all being filmed on ENG tape-based cameras, there's a lot of damage and noise on some scenes, but monitor overscan etc pretty much covered up the worst - it isn't a player or capture issue.
I haven't played this in a long time, and it's been fun to see it again in all its over the top glory. I presume the other two are out there, but whether there's sufficient discs to image for a dropout-free capture, that could be the problem.

That reference should added to the laser disc section to document that the actual image is like that.

Seeing what is noted in the source file and what will be involved, I don’t expect that to be working in MAME for some time, but as long as the disc image data is considered valid, that’s good enough for now for time being.

This is inexact. It really uses a Sony Laservision Videodisc Player LDP-1550P

Okay. I look forward to when future updates take place so some of the ALG brand games can be preserved.
