Arrrr. Got another box of buried pirate treasure arrrr.
Here is a photo of the actual box that arrived today:
And here is a pic of me opening it up:
This was me studying the map in order to find it, had to find Singular Eyeballed William to get it (was quite an ordeal):
Here I am hanging out with some friends:
Lebber me squee here. Shibber me timbies and just lebber. Me. Squeeeee. Arrrr, it's chips ahoy. Got an impossibly rare version of Crazy Kong II upgraded by Linear Electronics.
It has an added daughter card with an extra rom, dip switches, and some other chip which is sanded down. Maybe a pal or just ram. What does the card do? Most likely it speeds Mario/Jumpman up, possibly similar to the speed of a chicken with his head cut off. Bakooooock! Thus Crazy Kong becomes even crazier.

Next up in the box, hmmm well from the initials written on it it's some form of Ms. Pac-Man but hardly anything matches currently dumped roms so, arrrrr, wait and squee, wait and squee.. But sometimes I can't squee what is going on. Squeems like I can't squee five feet in front of my damn face. You know I guess it's like they squay, sometimes you can't squee the forest for the trees. Anyway, I don't know what it is, but something new.

Another bit in the box of note was a booty of Tank Battalion just labeled as Tank. It's not very interesting itself, looks like all they did is remove the Namco logo, but I think it might be a 1:1 boot, the chip mame has as missing from 2L looks like a prom from a distance but appears to actually be ram so that flag can probably be removed...
