0.183 [Game Preservation Society]


WIP:

- 0.183: Game Preservation Society added 'Flash Boy (vertical) [DECO Cassette MD] (No.12/Ver.0/Set.1,Japan)' (Data East Corporation 1981).

- 5th February 2017: Smitdogg - We dumped the rare Deco Cassette Flashboy, the first ever version of "The Deco Kid" game! It took approximately 100 hours of work to get a good dump. You can tell already I didn't dump it personally because I don't have anywhere near that much patience. When this game was originally released the title for the game was "Flash Boy" in Japan and "The Deco Kid" for the export release. Later Data East changed the title to "The Deco Kid" for all vertical versions and "Flash Boy" for the horizontal versions. This dump is the original/first ever released version of the game, a vertical Japan release. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMRKXwPf71g
