No.17402 Hydreigon Tester Feb 18, 2020, 05:07	Would like to confirm. The "Game:" string is supposed to view the name of the game under normal circumstances. Blitz 99 shows the correct behavior.

So far I could figure out the following: Hyperdrive had its game ID incorrect all along (currently 469; correct ID is 471 or 478). Found its correct ID first through a blurry picture of its PIC and second, oddly enough, through Arctic Thunder's game files (coincidence AT reused sounds from Hyperdrive so why not add some more info on that game Midway). Cart Fury's situation may be BTANB because it accepts any three digit game ID and always reads as development despite its original ID as "490". Using a PIC from a Carnevil would most likely work since both share the same "set_shuffle" parameter. nbagold uses a development PIC even on PCB (at least after accessing a working cab). Seems Midway had to rush this and couldn't find a compatible ID to have both Blitz 2000 Gold and Showtime Gold work without issues. I submitted this, https://github.com/mamedev/mame/pull/8407, in the meantime to figure out other alternate game ID values for seattle.cpp.
