NOVEMBER 2, 1999:
THE WAIT IS OVER!!!

Yes, the wait is over. This version of M.A.M.E. (0.36 beta 9) will emulate the most waited game of emulation history.
Many, many thanks to all the contributors for this driver:
- Ernesto Corvi
- Nicola Salmoria
- Marco "Sand666" Cassili
- Mirko "MiX" Buffoni
and ALL the peoples that love's it:
- Massimo "Massi cadenti" (Yes!! I've tested the incomplete driver included in beta 8's source and I've notified ALL bugs known to developers! ;-) )
- The HitMan (the #2 fan of this game)
- Zappa (WE *LOVE* this game! :-) )
- DeeJ (many thanks for the first notice on ICE and my compliments for your site! :-) )
- Atila of Retrogames (the FIRST that has notified the totally emulation)
- I_Morriz (the second that has notified on ICE)
- El Tarokker, RyuQ, DKappey, and all others hitted by "Operation: AMOS" of italian GdF (We are ALL with you... we still waiting our return on ICE)
- No sense and Spino (my compliments for www.emuita.it)

The emulation is NO LONGER partially, the game is now TOTALLY EMULATED!!

NOW you CAN download the STAND-ALONE version of the romset! Download it and ENJOY into the M.A.M.E. 0.36 beta 9! And buy a GOOD PC for emulate it... on my Intel Pentium 233 MMX 64 MB it run at 30 fps (fskip 6)... if you don't have a P200 or greater, then it's the moment for the UPGRADE ;->

Look also the screenshot, and download also the emulator from the OFFICIAL PAGE of M.A.M.E....

And the RAINE? Probably, will emulate Kick'n'Run (JRom dump) into next version. When coming out? I don't know :-)

I dedicate this great day to:
- ALL the cats in the world =^..^= I LOVE it!!!
- ALL the fan of this game
- ALL the emulator's developers
- ALL the emulation site
- ALL my friends
- The Mindscape, for the best games on PC (Catz 1-2-3-4) for the cat-ofile
- ALL the webmasters of cat's site ;-)

The romset is NOT available now (november 2, 1999) on OTHER servers, and this cause the server overload. If you notified an error 403 or "Forbidden", use an FTP-Get or FTP-by-mail service for download the files.

Emulation news page

   And now... the words of old version of the site...:-)
   Hi, this is my Kick'n'Run tribute page. Kick'n'Run (or Mexico 86 in Europe/US version) is the best arcade soccer game of the '80s. It was manufactured by TAITO in 1986, and it's the official arcade game of Mexico '86 World Cup. This game is NOT converted on console/computer and is not emulated corretly yet :-(
   Into this page you'll find a lot of files on this game: I wait for MAME or RAINE to emulate it... This is the most wanted game by the italian emulation newsgroup (it.comp.emulatori)!
   But first of all, please STOP mailing developers asking them to include this game into their emulators. The rom is very difficult to emulate, and already is in developer's possession. Bouncing emulator developers usually transform his passion into adversion... If you want to see a game emulated just don't ask for it, sooner or later someone will emulate it ;o) (ancient chinese saying)

For any comments please mail me... in italian language, if possible. Thank you.
