Bugs:

- Changing the flip screen dip does not work. IceMan01 (ID 00302)

WIP:

- 0.147: Fixed regression with Renju Kizoku [Angelo Salese].

- 0.146u4: Fixed maincpu rom addresses.

- 0.129u1: Added 'Unknown' dipswitch.

- 0.104u2: Added 6x 'Unknown' dipswitches.

- 0.103u5: Sonikos fixed inputs in Renju Kizoku. Added buttons 2 and 3.

- 0.81u7: R. Belmont and Tomasz Slanina added ST-0016 stereo sound to Renju Kizoku.

- 0.81u6: Tomasz Slanina added 'Renju Kizoku' (Visco 1994).

- 4th April 2004: Tomasz Slanina - ST-0016 emulation progress: Renju Kizoku is fully playable without gfx glitches.

- 6th March 2004: Tomasz Slanina - Few more pics/infos about Renju Kizoku (it's GO). There are still gfx glitches, tile banking is uknown atm. No sound - custom hardware ? There's no typical cpu/video/sound hw on the PCB (except uPD6376 DAC). Unknown 208 pinQFP (surface scratched off) is the CPU + GFX generator + sound (It's Seta custom ST-0016 or derivative): CPU - Z80 core, Sound - custom, probably 8 channels PCM ? and Video - custom, sprite (maps, rows, single sprites) based (similar to SSV).

- 4th March 2004: Tomasz Slanina - Just a start... Renju Kizoku/Visco 1994.

- 3rd November 2003: Guru - Renju Kizoku (Visco 1994) arrived with the donation of several people and MAMEWorld.

LEVELS: 3 - 6 (beginner mode - normal mode)
