That is a fortunate break. With assistance from Dan (Flyer Fever web site) back in early 2003, the last game
name that was on my search list was film reel game Nintendo Skyhawk. Other folks like Pete and a few others
eventually found the game names they were looking for. Moose is still searching for a couple game names.

The one pong clone game (Ping Pong) shown in the 1974 movie Juggernaut on MASH’ movies site had me searching around until a few years ago when I found out it was from UK. The company was Alca that had marketed Alca’s Ping Ping back then.

Unless everything on your wish list is completed, there are still coinop items that surface unexpectedly that some users thought could never be found or finally fixed to a working state.
Some stuff that you were guessing might not be emulated might actually already be emulated within past couple years such Irem’s Green Beret or Nihon’s Monster Z.

There have been several updates in MAME over past year or so improving support of the computer.
The emulation of the Mindset computer system a couple years earlier by OG was impressive itself.
