Thank you CAPSOff for your help from 2016 to 2024.
I hope that the CAPSoff webpage is preserved as a documentation of his work in arcade preservation as it documents how to reverse engineer arcade protection devices, and the secrets of decapusulation of arcade hardware that is required to emulate protection devices in software.
I note that although many protection devices have been located, decapped and dumped, there are still many arcade boards that are needed to be found, their protection devices removed, decapped and dumped so that the games in MAME can be emulated properly and preserved forever.
Decapsulation of protection devices the only way that the code from many arcade games is ever going to be preserved correctly.
I hope that the good work continues.
