Suicide page updated
 
I have finally updated our suicide page with all the info on how to bring dead CPS-2 games back to life without the need to return them to Capcom. I wanted to be sure the fix worked on other dead boards apart from my own before I updated the page with all the info.

CPS-2 Rebirth !!!!
 
Well it's finally happened, suicide CPS-2 boards brought back to life FULLY by simply replacing program ROM's with a revised version. I still have things to iron out but to show its done look at the following AVI.

  • Added Mighty! Pang (Japan 001011)
  • Added Super Street Fighter 2 (ETC 930911)
