> The M&D Monon Color – a low-cost Chinese hand-held console. This required finding an

> A prototype version of Tecmo’s Super Pinball Action that used separate screens for
> the simulated backglass and playfield. This version was presumably poorly received
> due to the need for an expensive dedicated cabinet.
> An initial driver for second-generation Sony NEWS workstations based on MIPS
> processors. This one has been a long time coming, with a lot of preparatory work, but
> it’s finally here!
> The Dracula and Game Pachinko – two Tsukuda hand-held games with vacuum fluorescent
> displays.
> Micom Mahjong – an example of an early CPU-based TV game, and possibly the first
> dedicated electronic mahjong system.
> Three new Casio synthesisers.
> Several Impera Magic Card games. This one’s also been a while coming, requiring
> several new devices to be emulated.
> A few Astro Corp. gambling games, including Dino Dino, Magic Bomb, Stone Age, and
> Zoo.
> Some previously missing NO CD versions of Capcom’s Red Earth.
>
>
> You’ll also find numerous bug fixes and emulation improvements across the board.
> There’s better support for low-cost Macintosh models based on the V8 chipset
> (including the LC, LC II, and Classic II). There are quite a few fixes for issues
> with Nintendo’s NES/Famicom-derived arcade systems, the VS. System and PlayChoice-10.
> Several ZX Spectrum derivatives from the Eastern Bloc are in better shape. The Atari
> POKEY sounds better. The PC Engine pachinko controller from Coconuts Japan is now
> supported. There’s also an important fix for extracting CHD CD-ROM images.
