HardDisk required
WIP:
- 0.179: Proper name for bam2. Added subtitle as per the PS1 game [Logan B]. Changed description to 'Bust a Move 2 - Dance Tengoku Mix (Japanese ROM ver. 1999/07/17 10:00:00)'.
- 0.178: Added CAT702 protection key.
- 0.149: smf converted 'Bust a Move 2' to use a memory map.
- 0.126u3: R. Belmont added 'Bust a Move 2 (JAPANESE ROM ver. 1999/07/17 10:00:00)' (Metro/Enix/Namco 1999).
- 30th July 2008: R. Belmont - I bought and Guru dumped Metro/Enix's Bust a Move 2, known outside Japan as Bust a Groove 2. Not as good as the original cult favorite dancing game due to a less interesting soundtrack, but still well worth a play and better than the later "Dance Contest 2001". The emulation currently lacks the music (which streams from a hard disk under the control of an H8/3644 MCU) but the MCU checks pass correctly so it at least detects the proper device and starts. (All of the game graphics and data are on ROMs). If you're wondering about all the logos, Metro developed the game for Enix, who also published the Japanese PS1 version. (Sony's 989 Studios did the English localization and published it outside of Japan). Namco did the arcade distribution and possibly the custom ZN-1 based hardware design. The other 2 logos are the design guys and the record company: the panda is Frame Graphics, and the other logo is of course EastWest Japan. (Thanks to Justin Kerk for correcting this).
- 20th July 2008: Guru - Bust a Move 2 (ZN1 hardware & 4.3GB HDD) arrived. Thanks to a couple of people that donated some postage bucks, another package arrived from Japan a few days ago.
- 30th May 2007: R. Belmont - The Dumping Project found and I paid for 3 of the remaining undumped ZN-1 boards: 1 on 1 Government, The Block Kuzushi and Bust A Move (the cult hit Metro dancing game, known as Bust a Groove outside of Japan). Guru should have 'em in a few weeks.
