MAME Info:
0.144 [Tormod, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]
WIP:
- 0.144: Tormod, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added Arcana Heart Full (Examu 2006). NOTE: The u1 flash on this is clearly recycled from a Happy Fish or Blue Elf multigame. Around 75% of the rom is NeoGeo, CPS2, Semicom etc. MAME romsets used by said multigame bootlegs which explains why the 1Gb flash rom hardly compresses, it's already compressed data. I highly suspect this upgrade (to Full) was done at the PCB shop to boost the value of the PCB, and that the original game used a smaller flash. It seems highly unlikely that Examu would ship ROMs containing the entire backcatalog of SNK and Capcom material. It's possible this set should be marked as a bootleg due to this although I imagine the actual valid part of the data will match a clean dump.
- 28th October 2011: Smitdogg - We dumped Tormod's Arcana Heart Full board. It will be the biggest rom set in MAME when it's added aside from disc rip games.
- 15th August 2009: Guru - From Japan from my Japanese contact we got Arcana Heart PCB + ver. 1.5 Flash ROM update.
- 4th February 2009: Guru - Arcana Heart FULL (Atrativa 2007) arrived. Thanks to M.F. for the donations.
