NOTE:
  • In Three Wonders you can select three games: MIDNIGHT WANDERERS (Action), CHARIOT (Shooting) and DON'T PULL (Puzzle)
Bugs:
  • In 3wonders, 3wonderu, wonder3 there are a lot of points into the game where the background is full of strange blocks, I think that they was used to simplify the designers work. You can easily see them raising the monitor brightness, I highlighted them with a red paint. I verified them with an original PCB. You can see them all also in some videos from this You-Tube user: http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=RUM03S&p=r. Layne (ID 01545)
WIP:
  • 0.127u4: EMMA team added clone Three Wonders (hack?).
  • 0.126u5: Added A-board PLDs (buf1, ioa1, prg1, rom1 and sou1), B-board PLDs (iob1.11e and rt24b.1a) and C-board PLD (ioc1.ic1).
  • 0.124u2: Nicola Salmoria fixed various graphic glitches (little graphic glitch on attract mode, in Midnight Wanderers, between level 1 and 2, when the Terror Twins are introduced, there's a white block on the screen and a glitch when you insert your record name when game is over).
  • 0.124u1: Nicola Salmoria fixed CPS1 background color. This fixes wrong colour of background in game selection and start screens and points are displayed between lives of first player and the word INSERT COIN in Three Wonders.
  • 0.37b13: Added Three Wonders (World). Renamed (3wonders) to (3wonderu).
  • 0.36b4: Renamed (3wonderj) to (wonder3).
  • 0.35b3: Fixed Three Wonders - Game now playable. Changed description of 'Wonder 3 (Japan)' to 'Three Wonders (Japan)'.
  • 0.35b2: Paul Leaman added Three Wonders (US) (Capcom 1991) and clone Wonder 3 (Japan) - (preliminary).
LEVELS: 5 - 7 - 16 (midnight wanderers - chariot - don't pull! [this one restarts once])

- TRIVIA -


Released in May 1991.


This game is known in Japan as "Wonder 3".


The main character of the action game (Midnight Wanderers) appears as a striker character (Lou) in "Marvel vs. Capcom - Clash of Super Heroes".


Pony Canyon / Scitron released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Captain Commando : G.S.M. Capcom 5 - PCCB-00083) on 21/03/1992.


- UPDATES -


The US versions have the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen.


"Wonder 3" (the Japanese version) has some differences :

* The action game is called 'Roosters' instead 'Midnight Wanderers'.

* Roosters is slightly harder in a few ways : the stage 1 mid-boss has a faster rate of fire, the stage 1 end-boss is more aggressive by shooting less and punching more and near the end of stage 2 where the water is deep some of the platforms will crumble away when you step on them.
