Right, they download temporarily to a PC in a cab, and in order to get a dump you would need arcade ops in Japan to let you come in and illegally copy them of the machines. Nothing is sold.

Spica Adventure is Taito Type X which is PC hardware but not a Japan download cab. It had a kit release with hard drive/dongle/art.

Yes

We can't get the games short of a series of miracles. Nesica and its brothers are the worst thing to ever happen to emulation/game preservation.
