Wasn't the suggestion to hack the ROMs, like Clay did with the Sega games?
Would eliminate the need for a seperate switching system between the control

A couple years ago, this was deemed impractical for the Williams hardware.
Not sure if the cnma hardware uses a lot of redirection when polling inputs.
Presumably, the emulators ought to be big help here...
