MAME Info:

WIP:

- 0.63: David Haywood added Pirates (NIX 1994).

- 25th December 2002: Nicola Salmoria decrypted Pirates completely and Paul Priest patched the protection, making the game fully playable.

- 15th November 2002: David Haywood sent in a newer Pirates driver, adding the tilemap layer but it is still not perfect since sprites and samples are encrypted.

- 0.62: Added Pirates (Testdriver).

- 16th July 2002: David Haywood sent in a preliminary driver for Pirates which is playable but the graphics don't show up and sound doesn't work because of encryption.
