Pirates of the Caribbean

[b-daddy]

Hello all. Any chance a Pirates of the Caribbean table will be created anytime soon? Thanks in advance!

Short answer: No.
Long answer: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Explaining answer: No, because the VPinMAME team has struck a deal with STERN that the S.A.M. system (that POTC uses) will not be emulated until STERN uses a new system, which could take over 10 years probably. So we won't be seeing the ROM support soon, and nobody wants to script the entire ROM from scratch using VP only.

That's all ancient news at this point. SAM systems got okayed to emulate years ago.

You can download FP versions of POTC here:
