There's a handful of sites dating back to at least 2000 (namely coinop dot org and CPS-2 Shock) that list a prototype called either "Galum Pa!" or "Gulum Pa!", but they all mistakenly refer to it a CPS2 game. Seems like it may have been at least semi-known before it was added to MAME?
A listing for "Galum Pa!" on an archived snapshot of CPS-2 Shock's game list, dating to December 2000. (https://web.archive.org/web/20001213065400/http://cps2shock.retrogames.com/gamelist.html)

I'm fairly certain that the coinop business that decided to route that title out on location had no idea that the princess sprites were edited to be topless :x

for whatever reason, Nintendo opted to use an inverted video signal on their classic arcade boards and standardized on the Sanyo 18/20EZ chassis, integrating the inversion board onto them

coinop folks that knew harvested 'em back when they were cheap and plentiful

The history of video games often neglects the cool train game and go video games developed before Expo'70 in Japan

A photo of the room housing the “Train Driving Test” exhibit presented at Expo ’70.
Notably, a suspended camera can be seen in the center, along with three suspended screens on the left, allowing people waiting in the room to follow the player’s exploits.
The board on the right is for the Go game.

The 1993 Simpsons episode "$pringfield (or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)" includes references to the 1959 Twilight Zone episode "The Fever", which is included in its entirety in the coinop video pack

The Period Zine is out now! @coinoppress.bsky.social

Featuring my poems “PMDD” and “Sanity (Living with PMDD), which were originally published in Project Wellness Magazine

#Poems #Poet #Writer #PublishedPoem #AnnaSamsonWrites

ALT Text included
The cover for the Periods Zine by CoinOp Press. It is a collage of various period related pictures PMDD and Sanity (Living with PMDD) by Anna Samson, which were originally featured in issues 2 and 3 of Project Wellness Magazine. PMDD Iknow chaos approaches Like it does every month Creeping in Rearranging everything Convincing me my needs have changed That I no longer want the same things Irritability and anxiety settle into my bones Ifeel like I've lost control Of my life And of myself Always on the verge of tears Contemplating giving in And ending it all Iamterrified of its intensity And the way it alters my reality Every couple of weeks Iwait for the blood and cramps To wash away its heinous presence For I'd rather deal with this discomfort Than the monster that makes me it's home for two weeks And then lurks back into the shadows Fooling me into forgetting about it Only to saunter back a few weeks later Continuing this endless cycle Sanity (Living With PMDD) I'm back here Where I never wantto be But always cycle back to Idon't feel like myself And question my relationships Every thought in my head is negative I curl up into a ball And try my hardest not to crack under all these feelings Iam exhausted From the constant dips and soars The rise and fall of my sanity I dance around the line of stability Never on it long enough to feel balanced But long enough to know what I'm missing

I had to remake the control scheme for the arcade coinop version, because most jamma cabinets only have 3 fire buttons🫠.
This game has now control mappings for keyboard, digital joystick, analogue gamepad and D-pad; and separate IMC mapping for jamma cabinet.
NO, there won't be any mouse control!!

A fun one from Centuri.

One local store always had the coinop of that machine and Pengo for some reason. They rotated out others.

JR yellow V2 Spydero at Morrisons Rochdale yesterday. Sadly it was switched off at the plug and the PRESS button was jammed in.
