additional information
info 0.58 [Bryan McPhail]

TEST MODE:
  • Reset with both start buttons held down for test mode.
Bugs:
  • In attract mode, the small pictures of the heroes appear before they should (or perhaps wrong priority here? I can't remember how the arcade version worked on this). captaven058gre_6 Karasu
  • In the ending, it starts to show the main 4 avengers in the game, and then the minor avengers that make cameos. You hear the announcments of the names of the 4 main ones, but they are said way after the pics are already gone (I think one said "Hawkeye" as it pictures Namor!). The voices are out of sync (or same damn lazzzzzzzy programming). captaven058gre_8 Karasu
WIP:
  • 0.113u2: Chaneman added clone Captain America and The Avengers (US Rev 1.4).
  • 0.111u2: Aaron Giles improved cycle timings in the ARM CPU core. Altered the DECO32 CPU clocks to be more realistic. Changed ARM CPU1 clock speed to 7MHz.
  • 0.98u4: Bryan McPhail fixed several bugs in the ARM core which break Captain America but fix some other issues and Tomasz Slanina fixed unaligned 32-bit reads in the ARM core.
  • 0.95u4: Brian Troha fixed dipswitches in Captain America and The Avengers. Added 'Lives' dipswitch.
  • 0.67: Added clones Captain America and The Avengers (US Rev 1.6) and (Asia Rev 1.0). Changed ARM CPU1 clock speed to 9333333 Hz. Changed description to 'Captain America and The Avengers'
  • 0.59: Added clone Captain America (Japan Rev 2). Renamed (captavee) to (captavne) and (captav19) to (captavnu). Fixed rom names.
  • 14th March 2002: Chack'n added the Japan version of Captain America, a World version of Gradius 3 and fixed quite a few ROM file names.
  • 0.58: Bryan McPhail added Captain America (Asia Rev 4) and clones (UK Rev 4) and (US Rev 1.9). ARM CPU emulation [Bryan McPhail, Phil Stroffolino].
  • 3rd February 2002: Bryan McPhail submitted the Captain America driver and ARM CPU core written by him and Phil Stroffolino. Captain America is almost perfect and includes sound, but the other games in that driver don't work - Fighter's History uses a protection chip, Dragon Gun and Locked 'N Loaded use a different sprite RAM format which is not yet emulated, and Tattoo Assassins works with sound, but lacks the graphics ROMs.
  • 30th January 2002: Guru - Received a Captain America PCB to do a redump of a few ROMs two weeks ago. Thanks to Pelle for loaning me the board and Bryan McPhail for the emulation preview shots.

history Captain America and the Avengers (c) 1991 Data East.


A side-scrolling beat'em up (punctuated with occasional shoot'em up sections) in which one or more players take on the role of either Captain America, Iron Man, Vision, or Hawkeye as they prepare to do battle with Red Skull and his henchmen. Each player character has a different weapon or power that can be used throughout the game to assist them in combat. Captain America uses his shield, Iron Man uses his repulsor rays, Vision uses his solar beam and Hawkeye uses his bow and arrows. There are also additional superheroes such as Quicksilver, Sub-Mariner, Wonder Man, and The Wasp who appear at certain points in the game to assist the player characters. Some of the super-villian foes that await the heroes are Klaw, The Living Laser, Whirlwind, The Grim Reaper, The Wizard, The Controllers, The Mandarin, The Juggernaut (from X-MEN), Ultron and Crossbones. The game consists of five stages.
