Two Crude Dudes (Crude Buster) |
Reduces the slowdown when you have the screen filled with enemies. Also, it reduces the freeze time when decompressing characters sprites (most noticeable in 2P mode due to the higher number of enemies). |

Uchuu Senkan Gomora (Bio-Ship Paladin) |
Significantly less slowdown in 1P but still quite slower than what it should be, especially in the hardest difficulty setting. Still quite slow in 2P mode, barely playable. |
In 1P mode, very similar to the arcade speed in normal difficult and with tolerable slowdowns in the hardest difficulty setting. In 2P mode it's playable now but still suffers with the screen filled with enemies and explosions. |
