Anyone wanna revive the MAME Club? Game picked: Avenging Spirit

[Cryomancer]

Since the arcade forum is up here with the other main forums now, maybe we could get a good group going again?

I'm on board if you guys are.

For those who weren't around last time it was active, we used to assign a game to try out every Monday and then post our thoughts about it.

I'm in. Why don't you start us off Cryo?

[Damaramu]

Ditto. I've been playing a lot of games lately via MAME.

Count me in. I play the same 20-30 MAME roms over and over, so I need some new games to play in a bad way.

[Cryomancer]

Hmm, I'll have to pick something out for tomorrow then. I'll think of something. Should I make a new thread like we used to, or just add it in here?

In the mean time, I've gone through the old picks and made a custom mame folder for it, download it here: http://kevlargibs.net/cryomancer/Custom.ini

Let me know if there are wrong versions / missing games, etc. Basically it's the custom.ini that was in my MameUI install, with the Mame Club picks added to it. If you would like it another way, just copy the stuff at the end of the ini, from [Mame Club] on, and do with it what you will.

OK, sorry for the double post and all, but here's a game for us since it's Monday morning.

My suggestion is Avenging Spirit. Romname is avspirit. 1991 game by Jaleco.

When i load this up in my copy of MameUI (32 bit ver .0126 with recentely-updated romset), I get some missing rom errors, but it plays fine regardless. Not sure if there's an issue with it or not.

So yeah, check it out guys. Here's the rom:

and the JPN version in case it needs that too:

For those new to the idea of the MAME Club, all you need to do is download and try the game out, then tell us what you think.
