The B boards hold battery-backed memory containing decryption keys needed for the games to run. The exception to this is that the blue and green boards can be used together. CP System II A and B boards are color-coded by region, and each board can only be used with its same-colored mate. The relationship between the A and B board is very similar to that between a home video game console and cartridge. The CP System II consists of two separate parts the A board, which connects to the JAMMA harness and contains components common between all CP System II games, and the B board, which contains the game itself. They also originally had plans for the system to be capable of 3D graphics. They had planned to complete and release the CPS2 in 18 months. Ĭapcom announced the development of the CPS2 in 1990. Due to the encryption, the system was never bootlegged until unencrypted program data became available. In order to rectify the situation, Capcom took the CP System hardware (with QSound) with minimal changes and employed encryption on the program ROMs to prevent software piracy. r/pinball - Pinball specific discussion.The earlier Capcom system board, the original CP System (or CPS-1), while successful, was very vulnerable to bootleggers making unauthorized copies of the games. r/arcade - Original CoinOP Arcade specific discussion. r/RetroGamingNetwork - a multireddit for retro gaming! r/HyperSpin - HyperSpin specific discussion. R/MAME RULES/REGULATIONS REDDIT'S ARCADE COMMUNITY Over time, MAME (originally stood for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) absorbed the sister-project MESS (Multi Emulator Super System), so MAME now documents a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles and calculators, in addition to the arcade video games that were its initial focus. The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?). The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important 'vintage' software from being lost and forgotten. MAME’s purpose is to preserve decades of software history. MAME is a multi-purpose emulation framework. Questions? Please check out OUR MAME/BYOAC Wiki!
