Royal Rumble (WWF)
Data East, 1994I for one love the game and think a few tweets would make the game that much greater.
Make the timer for the add a ball feature to be adjustable during my I ball
Add rules for the upper play field during multi ball. Why does the light over the drop targets flash during MB? Maybe add a jackpot for loops or drops in the mi I PF. Maybe you have to shoot the ball up via the right up kicker.
Any other sound clips that were not used?
I wonder if they even have the code for all the old games. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't keep track of code.
Quoted from dannunz:They can alter the code like they did with TFTC and Jp
I agree that WWFRR needs a code update. If I was involved, I would say it should be done fourth in line after JP, TFTC and Tommy.
...and, I am positive the guy that worked with Chad on those code updates has a WWFRR handy, so I would guess it is just a matter of time...

Nice! Any other sugestions on what should be tweaked?

I think they are doing very low level alterations. By this I mean they are changing different values on the rom, so they would be unable to do more drastic changes like alter modes or add modes or affects.
Quoted from jasong78:hook is still being worked on now and is almost finished
Yeah, the guy that did JP, TFTC and Tommy with Chad didn't have a Hook.... 
Quoted from dannunz:Nice! Any other sugestions on what should be tweaked?
I didn't mean to cover this up or misdirect, but I realize since I have been on here so rarely lately, I sort of did... I was the guy who did the code changes with Chad for JP, TFTC and Tommy. My WWFRR is currently with a buddy but can be re-delivered to me at basically any time once I get the basement more set up - I moved relatively recently, so... yeah...
Having said that, Chad is the one that codes and I don't speak for him, so while I do have a laundry list of things to change on WWFRR, when any of it happens ultimately comes down to when Chad is free and if he still wants to do WWFRR. I don't want to make any promises for him.

That's not exactly true. When we did TFTC there were a number of modes that we did alter, and in all three games we found unused quotes and added them where appropriate. JP had the least of it, TFTC had the most, and Tommy sort of fell in between. I know for instance that on TFTC, we totally changed the rules of the ramps from what it was to something that became a risk / reward when you went to hit it. To me, it changes TFTC from a game where the ramps go from basically doing nothing to the ramps being a viable strategy for a high score.
That isn't to say that things on WWFRR would necessarily get fixed, but we have (well, Chad has with my input sometimes) changed how lights flash and what is lit when too.
