        main program ROM revision is Europe

While I was checking ROM U96, (soldered maked ROM) to determine
its' type, I accidently shorted pins 32 and 31 (+5V & GND). 
The spike damaged all of the ROMs, RAM 68K and more. Luckily
it was the only ROM I had not read in. However, it means that
this archive is not complete... and I have a dead PCB. :-(

Fix Eight (Toaplan, 92)

fixeight used an mcu, like several toaplan games..
it was like a z(1?)80 with some internal rom code..
until that internal rom code is dumped there is very
little chance og the game running correctly..
dumping the code is not the easiest of tasks either..
