I need help getting this to work in MAME (again). I referred to the PlanetEmu diagram, I've got the parent rom, the bios and the game, but still nothing. Help a n00b out if you can.

I'll try to get some time to figure out the mame setup tomorrow. If I can actually figure it out, I'll post here.

I just got it for Saturn, looking forward to running it.

I haven’t checked in a while but the PSX version was available on PSN when I got it years ago on PS3

I'm actually looking to buy a PlayStation copy of this, if anyone has it.

No worries man, just posted another score anyway!

This is an interesting game to dig into. Some planes have an alt-fire mode; try holding shot (with no autofire) and see if something different happens. A few even have an alt-bomb input command, such as :down:
