Re: Two Tigers cassette tape?

Unless it is a different "Two Tigers" than the one that was released in "1984" I highly doubt it's an 8-Track!!!
WOW, WTF?????????
According to this page:
http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?letter=T&game_id=10242
Technical The dedicated game uses an 8-track tape player to play background sound effects (ack-ack, fighter's engines, shouting, explosions, etc.) while the game is in progress. The original tape is hard (impossible?) to find, but the game can be played without it. (Truth be told, the tape adds too much ambience to enjoy the game fully without it.) The Tron conversion does not use the tape, and the ROMs provide some very cool-sounding engine noise which increases in pitch when you are diving.
There are different ROM sets depending on whether the game is dedicated, or a Tron conversion. The current MAME includes both sets.
Did Bally/Midway have a crapload of nos 8-Track players that they needed to unload or what???
There is no law in the arena
