where is that rom for it? IDPB does not have the working one. their rom works but there is no sound other than the flipper and slingshots! is there no background sounds for this one?

Well, whadya know. I'd never seen or heard of this one before, but noticed someone checking out the thread just now.

The resource entry has been touched up a bit, with flyers and the correct ROM added.

We really need the backstory on this one, though. Evidently, it was both a way to wring new life from slightly older games, as well as something to do with a world championship in the Caribbean, where one could win up to... CA$250,000 was it?
