Vampire got added into MAME as likable as Brady Bunch ‘s unwanted jinxy bad luck tv character cousin Oliver in the tv show’s final season.

Anyway, my thanks to Klaus, dox, Haze and hap for striving to get Vampire working and playable in MAME. Good to have game supported after all the earlier soap opera emu drama episode is in the past.

And also some good progress taking place with h8 family chips emulation being improved where Yamaha emulation is also progressing.
