Ahhh, yes. ;-)

I've got the original Nightmare stuff out again until I got distracted
by the latest run of "interesting" Vector stuff...

Not much since the last update. I found a bunch of the OKI5218 ADPCM
chips on old telephone-system voicemail boards, so I can do the sound
part. The daughtercard will be very Sega-multigame like. I think I
have that all worked out. The part I haven't done yet is just what
needs to change on the actual Food Fight PCB. I need to decide how
involved that needs to be, or if I can just add duplicate logic on my
daughtercard and have my own decoders.

It'll take a while longer-- after I finish this Rev 3 ESB stuff...
