Well as you'll likely know Metal Freezer has now been preserved in MAME the seller got a bit of stick in this thread obviously i dont know everything that went before but i just feel like saying in my dealings with him he seemed perfectly reasonable and took a big hit on the asking price when i made him what i considered to be a fair offer for a very rare board and i also mentioned it was to dump the game and see it Emulated in MAME.
So maybe we can once again consider him to be somewhat friendly towards the MAME project..???
