Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Twinklestar Sprites!

Twinkle Star Sprites doesn't have a firm grasp on the English language so I don't really need to have one either when discussing it

RIGHT ON

I agree with Joe, Spare Harrier all the way.

I have Twinkle Star Sprites on my Dreamcast, which I can only assume is virtually a direct emulation of the arcade. It's one of my favorite games, although I must admit I've never actually played it in an arcade.

Oh, and the English in that game is just priceless. TOO CUTE.

No, the Dreamcast version gets rid of the slowdown

I like the slowdown, thankfully there is an option to enable it.  8)

I have a Street Fighter 1 (6-button) dedicated machine... there's only a few other games I'd like to have.

- Street Fighter 1 (2 button) - I actually have a set of buttons but I'd like to have a 6-button machine and a 2 button machine
- tecmo bowl
- street fighter 2 champion edition dedicated
- double dragon
- double dragon 2

man, I would love to try it with the original arcade buttons. Every time I play street fighter I know that I could be doing better on the original arcade. Ever since you showed us the pix of the control panel, I've been searching for the arcade.

I'm in California too so if you find one, let me know!

I used to work with an arcade Technician based in Martinez... he was operating one of the old cabinets at a place called Aladino's Pizza but it was also converted to 6 buttons and he was running Marvel vs Capcom in it... That was about 5 years ago so I don't know if it's still there...

Parts for the dedicated cabinet like the control panel overlays, the marquee, and the sideart are extremely hard to find.

I'll let you know if I find one or any parts. Its harder now since most of the arcades here are out of business.
