Didn't realise this was playable in MAME. Is it like Ketsui where it's one of those yellow boxes saying it has errors, but is actually perfectly playable?

@Dunpeal any tips for safe ball-shaving would be much appreciated, I don't dare take a blade down there.

Edit: Also, should I be grabbing any definitive edition? Major differences?

Guessing I should just go with the first black label near the top as it has the latest date. Ja?

Yeah, this game will give you the same yellow box treatment, but it should work just fine. :)

I used the traditional ball-shaving tool of Longhena prophecy.

As far as I know, Black Label versions should be identical, maybe aside the weird PGM cart one that was found somewhere.

The latest revision is a safe bet though :)
