- 13th January 2008: Mr. Do - From BYOAC/CAG artwork we get the Turbografx marquee for Blazing Lazers. When I first sent the board to Charles, we didn't know what game was included; I was soooo hoping it was Parasol Stars. Oh well, this was still cool, at least to find the legit PCB; now maybe some other ROM cards will turn up.
