It's actually the opposite... that is probably an older version of MAME... current MAME looks like MAME video linked in your first post.
I spent the last few minutes looking through various YouTube videos.. the biggest thing that sticks out for me is how the "caverns" look kind of gray in current MAME, where in all of the actual arcade cabinet/pcb videos, those same caverns have a more purple/blue hue (depending on the quality of the video).
Then... if you lookup a video of Rastan on Taito Legends for PS2, it also matches closer to the actual PCB videos vs current MAME. And if I remember right, Nicola had a hand in this particular compilation, and might be some MAME-based code in there, which would be around 2005.
So maybe this is something to be looked at?
RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
