I tried searching and failed miserably... how many games soft-dips will a Neo-Geo MVS motherboard save? I've heard conflicting reports of 10, 12, 15, and "more than you will ever need"...

Is 8 really correct? I question because I currently have:

Metal Slug
Metal Slug 2
Metal Slug 3
Metal Slug 4
Strikers 1945 Plus
Sam Sho
Sam Sho 2
Sam Sho 3
Sam Sho 4
Viewpoint
Bust-A-Move
Bust-A-Move Again
and at least 2 or 3 others and the softdips seem to have been saved for all those... which is more than 8?!

You sure some of those aren't default settings?

I'm fairly sure... i'd put it at 85% or so. ;)

I read that there is 64K to work with... I can't imagine dips would take up much space, though I am guessing high scores also use that same 64K RAM? If so, that would eat up more space... but still, I can't imagine each dip and high score settings taking more than a couple K at most? But I admit I am talking out my arse and am just throwing out an educated guess...
