   I just don't like how fucked up the control of the cursor is in MAME.   
   I'm sure you could probably configure it to use your mouse, but I've yet   
   to ever figure out how to do that...

   Hmmmmm, well, the arcade version was just vector-based, so IMO this   
   beats the fuck out of that version. ;)

   It it hard, no doubt. Pisses me off that the "recharge shield" code was   
   taken out(according to Steve Lashower's website), that could have come   
   in really handy. As it is, the farthest I can ever make it is the Death   
   Star's trench run. :(
