Quick question.... why would the Japanese deliberately keep an old title like that away from Mame? It's not like Mame isn't available world wide. Or am I missing something screamingly obvious? |

I'm not familiar with the game, but I think its cool. I'll try playing pretty much anything, and I'm often entertained by horrible games. I still play Logger all the time, mainly because I think it might be the worst arcade game ever made. ;D |

At the time I was heavily into Donkey Kong and I'd dabbled in other arcade classics like Pacman etc. But I couldn't get anywhere on Logger (of course!) and I remember thinking to myself... "am I just sh!t or is this game total bollocks?" I figured I was just sh!t and persevered... mainly because the other arcade games I'd busied myself with were confirmed classics already. And surely nobody could release a dog now?! LOL! |

THEY'RE the issue... |

I suppose if that sort of collector thinks that keeping the game from being dumped, they have increased the rareness of the game as it is ONLY available in hardware form. |
