here's a neat discovery by a Xevious fanatic: AC Xevious has a table overflow bug that spawns a ridiculous amount of enemies in a manner that's coincidentally similar to the fictional "2000-Man Assault" scene depicted in the Famicom Rocky Xevious manga
the guy initially triggered it by hacking the ROM but the above video shows it working on the unmodified game, he's been sharing his analysis here, including the exact steps necessary to trigger the bug on genuine hardware landhere.jp/blog/a1864.html🇯🇵
btw, the very final Namco Catalog IP game, released just a week before Bannam pulled the licenses, was a recreation of the aforementioned manga scene—if you're curious, there's a writeup here gamecast-blog.com/archives/65960…🇯🇵
