Protected MVS & AES release that uses the PROGEOP board, which is exclusive to this game. The ROMs aren't encrypted but the game includes protection code which will display a red warning screen and hang if it fails.
Protection
The protection is a major upgrade to the one using the SNK-9201 chip. It's a continuously running streaming challenge/response setup. If ever the responses are incorrect or go out of sync, the game displays the following text and hangs:
A Toshiba "0103" custom chip and an Altera CPLD are used for security and P2 bankswitching.
