tyranthraxus #3 Posted July 4, 2003 Wow nice collection. I'm glad they aren't skimping on quanity or quality of games. I've skipped many collections like this because they just weren't good value. Hopefully a PC version will eventually come out as I recently decided to get rid of my PS2... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jayson #4 Posted July 7, 2003 Yeah, but where the hell is Wizard of Wor? Have not seen that game on a system in about 20 years. Give us Worriors a break, Midway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flojomojo #5 Posted July 7, 2003 Yeah, but where the hell is Wizard of Wor? Have not seen that game on a system in about 20 years. Give us Worriors a break, Midway! Maybe it has something to do with this:Add the voice to Wizard of Wor? Not unless you can emulate a chip that's been out of production for 20 years, for which the only known documentation is an old, threadbare data sheet written in Japanese and cribbed from a former Sanyo employee. That's from the MAME FAQ. They could probably get away with using the samples, I would think, but if the Wizards of MAME can't do it, I wonder if anyone can.

Jayson #6 Posted July 9, 2003 If Digital Eclipse was the developer, they'd find a way. The samples work pretty well on MAME. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
