12.2.2015 - Catching up...and cutting back...
- As you can imagine this site takes a fair amount of looking after as it's just me, and to be honest it's been discouraging me from updating for a while. In light of this I've decided to draw a line under certain parts of the site and not update them any further. I'm pretty much not going to add any post 2010 arcade games apart from Sega stuff (and that's only because I'm interested in them). There's a bit of re-factoring in this update because of that, but I'm almost definitely going to be doing some more on that soon.
- With that said there's a fair amount of new stuff in this update, but again mainly from Sega ;)
Atari - Moved Danger Express from Unknown to G42 Hardware, thanks to Diet Go Go Fan.
Capcom - Added screenshots to Ultra Street Fighter IV on Taito Type X3 Hardware.
- Added screenshots to Ken Sei Mogura on CPS Hardware, thanks to Diet Go Go Fan.
Irem - Added Major Title to M82 Hardware, which it also exists on, thanks to Yves Marchand.
- Moved Match It / Shisensho from unknown to Unique Hardware, thanks to Diet Go Go Fan.
Konami - Merged all the Bemani PC based games into one entry with separate notes on each regarding PC spec where known.
Sega - Moved Hammer Away from Unknown Hardware to System 18 Hardware, another one off the unknown list! :D
- Huge overhaul of System SP Hardware, added the correct hardware details (essentially a re-factored Naomi) and Dinosaur King 2, Disney Magical Dance, Future Police Patrol Chase, Insect Dash, Issyouni Turbo Drive, Issyouni Wan Wan and Monopoly The Medal 2nd Edition, added loads of screenshots and cabinet photos.
- Moved Manic Panic Ghosts! / Pokasuka Ghost from Chihiro to Naomi Hardware, thanks to D Dedeo.
- Added Outrun 2 Special Tours to Chihiro Hardware.
- Added Quest of D: Gofu no Keisyousya, Quest of D: Oukoku no Syugosya and Sega Golf Club Network Pro Tour 2005, and corrected several spelling mistakes on Chihiro Satellite Terminal Hardware.

- Moved Speed Race GP-5 from Unknown Hardware to Discrete Logic Hardware and added some PCB photos, thanks to Enric Nadal.

6.2.2015 - I'm working on it!
Just a quick update to say I'm still alive and I'm working on an update...(slowly!)
In the mean time I've hopefully found a way to stop losing all my data and make my ability to update more mobile (as I don't get as much time in front of my home PC as I used to!)
See you soon! (hopefully...)
Toby
