Quoted from Coz:Ive owned a Data East JP and sold it, I played Jacks JP home pin at expo last year and at the Louisville show this year and really enjoyed it. It’s a good layout.
Seems like you answered your own question then! I owned DE JP years ago based off many people raving about it, but I could never get into it. I didn’t think the shots worked well, and I really don’t like the way 90’s DE games look and sound (weird sped up MIDI music, bad cartoonish artwork).
I have not played the Home JP, but it appears to be a much smoother shooter and I’m very interested in checking it out.
