Re: How many Caged Sega games were made?

<x-flowed>
If you take the list at http://www.spies.com/~arcade/info/segaROMnums
and remove the vector games it leaves you with:
    Monster Bash
    Space Odyssey
    Astro Blaster
and possibly:
    Pig Newton
    005

The MAME source code says:
    Astro Blaster
    Monster Bash
    005
    Space Odyssey
    Pig Newton
    Sinbad Mystery

Can't find a manual, but there are schematics
at http://www.spies.com/~arcade/schematics/PDF/MonsterBashSchem.pdf

The schematic shows two 8-position DIP switches, but doesn't label any
of them as to what they do.

I can't make hide or hair of the way MAME defines the DIP switches.
 They claim the switches are in a scrambled order that MAME can't
directly handle so they reorder them.

So instead I used MAME to try to tell me switch settings. I put the results
at http://www1.cedar-rapids.net/00000028/monster_bash.html
