Namco (Super) System 23 was a pretty complicated beast. The MAME preliminary driver is a good bit of reading.

Wow thanks for the link. I asked cause I wanted to "emulate" a copy protection similar to old 80's arcade machines for my open source game. Of course I won't make it difficult to bypass as it is an open source project.  :P It was gonna be more of a nostalgia thing then real copy protection and i will release info on "cracking" said copy protection.

Yep, i took a quick look at the specs and it looks very beastly compared to the first arcade machines.  :-\

Sincerely,
