Hey guys

I'm converting one of my Electrocoin Midi jamma cabs into a vertical, single player, 8-way groovymame cab.

It'll be running 15Khz vertical raster games, with the control panel set out as follows: -

Button2, Button1, Joy8way, Button1, Button2

So single joystick in the middle, 2 buttons for either right or left handed play.

I'm looking for any obvious omissions from the following game list. I don't really want anything on there later than mid-nineties. And I'm not a fan of bullet-hell shooters so those are already very limited in my selection below.

I've included a few 2-player shooters in the list, but obviously with 1 joystick you won't be able to play with 2 players simultaneously, which is fine.

I'm not having any 2- or 4-way games on this cab. I have another cab in mind for those with a better suited joystick, so this is 8-ways only.

Have I missed anything decent? :)

Thanks!

Super-X looks cool, reminds me of Truxton - is it definitely 2 buttons or less?

I actually had Raiden DX in the list, but looks like it's 3 buttons [Fire / Bomb / Rapid Fire], and I don't know how vital the rapid fire is., any ideas?
 

cools

Rapid fire is necessary in Raiden II normal, but im not sure its available. Remap button 3 to button 1, problem solved.
