                  @UDb23 Thank you for all the hard work you're putting into these overlays. You are just about done with that top 11 list. Have you thought about what other arcade games you might make overlays for?

                    • scramble

                          +1 for Elevator Action. It's a classic here in Brazil. :-)

                              You know there is just a lot of great old arcade games. I am so glad we are able to play them like this. Having them on one device.

                                @mviars I would make overlays for most of the requested games anyway, I like those classic games so much too. ;-)
                                And yes, they are a lot !

                                Consider also Gyruss, Astro invader, Silkworm and less known games like Crash (exidy ), The Speed Rumbler, Crush Roller (make trax).

                                Just a matter of time and availability of original artwork.

                                        @UDb23 if you merge the @jdorion PR I can fix the Space Invaders filenames. ;-)

                                            Wow ! Just what I've been looking for. Awesome work here ! Fits people that have built an arcade cabinet like me without losing valuable screen space (TVs in arcade cabinet canot go much bigger than around 28").

                                            Well it hasn't been asked yet but I'm sure a "Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition" overlay would be extremely popular ! Here is my vote for what it's worth ! Keep em coming anyway ! I plan to use them all (after figuring how hehe).
