Neo-Geo

SETUP:
  • To use a Paddle, enable it in test mode, the default is joystick not paddle.
Bugs:
  • [possible] The service mode for popbounc allows an alternate controller, "paddle", to be used. MAME does not support this. It could require a different BIOS file, similar to (but not the same as) irrmaze, though it more likely just has never been implemented. Update: Could be because the home version used paddles. TriggerFin (ID 01163)
  • Regardless of whether the "paddle" or "joystick" option is activated in the dipswitch, the controls are broken. SpinalBlood / Tafoid (ID 00598)
WIP:
  • 0.76u2: Changed input from trackball to dial.
  • 16th September 2003: David Haywood added paddle support to Pop 'n Bounce thanks to information from Leon van Rooij.
  • 10th May 2002: Dan Gendreau submitted a change to the Neo Geo driver so that Pop 'n Bounce can be controlled with a paddle.
  • 0.35RC1: Added 'Pop 'n Bounce / Gapporin' (Video System Co. 1997).
LEVELS: 16
