WIP:

- 0.134u2: Team Japump fixed rom names in Warp & Warp. Also removed 4th program rom ($3000) which is not present on real board.

- 0.133u1: Renamed (warpwarr) to (warpwarpr) and (warpwar2) to (warpwarpr2).

- 0.129u4: Changed Custom sound to 'Warp Warp Custom'.

- 0.127u6: Stephane Humbert reworked Warp Warp INPUT_PORTS definitions by using conditional dipswitches. Fixed 'Bonus Life' dipswitch.

- 0.123u2: Changed palettesize to 513 colors.

- 0.116u4: Atari Ace fixed palette regression in Warp Warp.

- 17th December 2006: Mr. Do - Thanks to the loan by Vintage Arcade Superstore, we have a scan of the generic Rockola bezel, which Zorg vectored quite nicely. For now, I added in a blank red instruction card until we get the real thing. This gives us a bezel for Warp Warp.

- 0.78u4: Removed 2nd coin slot.

- 0.36b16: Sound in Warp Warp [Juergen Buchmueller]. Added Custom sound.

- 25th January 2000: Juergen Buchmueller added sound to Warp Warp.

- 0.35b6: Replaced I8085 CPU1 with I8080.

- 0.33b4: Nicola Salmoria added accurate colors to Warp Warp.

- 0.30: Aaron Giles support dirty rectangles in Warp Warp.

- 0.26: Control: Arrows = Move around and CTRL = Fire.

- 0.21: Chris Hardy added colors to Warp Warp.

- 0.20: Chris Hardy kindly provided a working driver for Warp Warp.

- 0.19: Added preliminary unplayable Warp Warp (Namco 1981). Graphic is ok, but the game hangs during diagnostic.
