can anyone help me find the name of this sega japanese only arcade game. (not a game request)

[DJPlace]

i have the rom set but i can't recall the games name.... it's a game by sega and it's 2 player co-op and you play has a statue also the game is japanese only.... and it's an over head view and you shoot stuff. i can't recall anything else. i would go through my rom set 1 by 1 but i would have grey hairs by then.

Hi, was the main character you play as, had wings or not ?

Update: According to your description, I found this. Is this the one ?

It’s a weird and very trippy game, here’s a link

Not sure what exactly you mean by the statue comment but my first guess is Alien Syndrome

Edit: Others found the game. Also ALien Syndrome is also in English so yeah...

How do you play these Japanese arcade games on PC? I've never dived into Arcade emulation. There are so many games I remember playing in the arcades that I would love to replay. ty <3

MAME emulator is overall arcade emulator on PC but the actual question is "how to find decent rom that actually MAME emulator is satisfed to run the game". Back then when I looked for decent roms the MAME emulator kept saying "the game lack this file and that" until I basically downloaded the whole internet and some roms worked and some didn't. To this day I fear trying to find more roms and I'm satisfied with few roms I found and it works lol.

Just update to the latest MAME and then go here: https://mdk.cab/

Every rom file you download has a list in the description of the bios files and other dependencies you need to run it. It makes it very easy to do. I'm a huge arcade shmup player so i'm kinda obsessed with arcade titles.

Oh boy MAME is like the worst UI ever lol. From my memory. I remember getting FBNEO? I believe set up. My problem was either the BIOS just didn't match or the game version I had was invalid. Ive mastered all emulators besides arcade because of this looool. also thank you @

Dew Prism for the info <3. You both rock.​

I've been using RetroBat as a solution for MAME and other emulators with relatively little issues, but I have definitely had to test each game in my collection and sometimes manually select which version of MAME to open with in the ES frontend.

AFAIK, MAME is more actively developed and aims for accuracy first, whereas FBNeo is a smaller project that aims for compatibility before accuracy. I haven't looked into FBNeo in a while however, so things may have shifted.

And M.A.M.E. romsets have ALOT of dependencies.
backups of .Rom's ,bins .wav ect ect and suchs files of my own, for M.A.M.E.
