In an E2 the 5v is good, but this PCB makes the 12v read at 10v.

IIRC, this game uses +5V and nothing else. In my EGRET II, my JAMMA connector doesn't agree fully with the board's edge connector, so I've had to resort to putting it in my FrancoB voltage adaptor.

Ah well it works fine in the Cute anyway, but it will have a tough time keeping my Garegga out of there.

Hard to compete with Garegga, of course, but the scoring in Twin Tiger Shark is very addictive. Dodging the power-ups while waiting for them to turn into stars is the hardest part IMHO, but very satisfying when you start to figure out routes for the stages.

Very cool! Would be interesting to see how high the scores will be in Japan.
Most Mikado players are getting to the end of the 2nd loop on their first try. Definitely considered an easy game for them.

When played for score, it's much harder. I'd like to to the scoring ballpark of Mikado players. 20+ million pts?

Fired it up for the first time today. Made it to stage 3 before work, really love the game. Ship speed is perfect, and the music is on point.

@mice Well done!

Thanks @Shou for putting it at Mikado. Was a thrill watching Chantake playing it yesterday. Although, clearing it on the first try. :)

New boards are too far in to the future for me to keep track of. :(

You're welcome. It's always a treat to watch your creation being played and enjoyed.
Mikado has some of the best players in the world so seeing how they perform against a game isn't necessarily a good barometer for average play even in Japan.

From an op perspective (not a player one), the game is quite long per play session. I'm sure trap will provide some constructive game feedback for you.

Here's an old picture for you from about 7 years ago, Horii from M2 at my place playing Twin Tiger Shark on Ouya.

Yeah, I'm eagerly awaiting his list. :)
Ah, what a lovely pic!

Yes but it’s changed with the times. OLED instead of the plasma display, higher quality amp and speakers for Dolby Atmos. OSSC and Retrotink 5X instead of the Framemeister.
