Rumiano

  • A company with two venues, in Sant'Antonino di Susa and Vaie, two smalltowns in the province of Turin.
  • Rumiano was particularly active in the French market.
  • According to brochures,  his main activity was building cabinets for video game enginereed by others.
  • However, two PCB with hardware changes were found.
  • Usually, in the PCB we should found by a sticker indicating the exact polarity in the connections, and a red paint covering the CPU.
  • Most of their games lacked the original logo, so they were probably unauthorized copies; however, there is an exception.
  • The staff consisted of some people headed by two cousins: the owner, Mr. Rumiano, and the chief engineer. Unfortunately they both died.
  • Thanks Alessia, daughter of the chief engineer, for the info. We are looking for Diego, the owner's son.

Advisor 1981? Clone of Space Fury (Sega)

Meteor

Meteor is a probably illegal version of Atari Asteroids made by Hoei. The PCB should be the same (to be confirmed)

Hyperspace

The splash screen says "Hyperspace U Games". This company is perhaps the one that collaborated with Rumiano for hardware and software modifications

Advisor

A probably unauthorized version of Space Fury, a Sega color vector monitor game. It is emulated in MAME from version 0.237. This game is equipped with speech synthesis, and in this version it is in Italian. To achieve this, the original game's Sega Speech Board SPD220 was replaced with a Texas Instruments TMS5100. Of course, this also reqiired software changes.

Actual emulation in MAME  - no speech at the moment - and a cabinet picture from Matteo Legittimo..
