This surprisingly small collection of mostly the usual Namco suspects has a big problem: it doesn't seem to support my ASCII arcade stick at all. How can any self-respecting collection of retro games not respond to input from an arcade stick controller? This is incredibly lame. Guess I'll have to try the GC version. At least they're cheap...

Also, the resolution is bad. : P

I no longer own it though, I guess I returned it after the arcade stick debacle.

Gotta get it again--it's cheap on eBay--'cause you can extract the arcade roms: https://github.com/arpruss/xsr . Mappy's the only one I care about that I still need, I suppose.

^ Looks like it may not dump Xevious. And "Not all the games will work"--but Mappy appears to work in MAME 0.267. Would be nice if could get an updated version of Dig Dug out of it, I suppose.
