>Abelardator2 sent us Red Hawk (Greece) and Virtua Bowling (V101HJS).

These should definitely help improve emulation.

Red Hawk (Greece) could be useful to get clock measurement settings.

-
src/mame/drivers/nmk16.cpp

- (PCB owners): Measure pixel clock / vblank duration for all of these games.

- for the Afega games (Guardian Storm especially) the lives display has bad colours,
it doesn't matter if this is drawn with the TX layer (some sets) or the sprites (others)
so it's probably something else funky with the memory access.

>and Virtua Bowling (V101HJS).

I am guessing a needed Hong Kong regional version. A fair amount of issues needing to be fixed regarding this game and this pcb might get things corrected.....assuming pcb is still in working condition.

>Andy Welburn dumped the bproms on Aztarac.

Good to see some of the early 1980s games still getting attention with being certain every rom / prom / gal/ pal is accounted for and not overlooked when a game pcb was dumped nearly 20 years earlier.
