There must have been lots more cabs out there in N. American markets, but only dual game I recall seeing and playing was Invinco / Head On 2. It may have been at a former multiplex walk in movie theatre which was then converted to a savings and loan building.

The recent find was probably only a French/European region only. It was probably known on European arcade forums, but I don't believe the info made its way to other arcade/info sites or else it might have already been added to undumped Wiki or other sites by this time. Even Dan didn't have any French language flyers of this hardware nor any manuals or paperwork out there either. That's why the find is a surprise to me and it makes me wonder if there are other French region dual game titles yet to be found.

There should be other N. American dual game titles yet to be found because I have a few of the dual game manuals at this time, but I guess most of the pcbs may have already been converted to play Carnival since Carnival was very popular in the early 1980s.

As for vicdual, it was probably a World/N. American release with the French language being an exception. It will be interesting if more dual game French language titles are found later.
