Summary	03140: tetrsark: Coin inputs are on permanent lockout
Description	The coin inputs in tetrsark are always locked out. There's a hack in the driver that assigns the coin inputs to player buttons to avoid the lockout, but that doesn't address the coin lockout in the first place.

No.04305 Haze Senior Tester May 2, 2009, 15:42	yeah, coin lockout should be disabled for this game I guess... It's probably not connected / doesn't really exist.
