- 10899Completed the game (MiSTer). I played through the first 'part' of the Japanese version of this excellent port of R-Type. I got an fun ending animation that I never saw before, and a code:
BDA-7638-NB. No idea what that's for. I should probably play the US version that isn't split into two cards. - 14438
