As far as I know, the Red Tents use two different monitors. How do you identify them?

Tried it out last night. Seems like if you knock down 5 riders without crashing, you get the power up, which lasts until you crash, even into the next track!

Is there only one kind of CPU? Does it work will all the games, or is it like the PPU, of which there are multiple versions?

I've been keeping up with John's show for a while now and own 6 arcade games, including my newly acquired Red Tent with Vs Excitebike and Vs Super Mario Bros. Looking forward to discussing hardware and software issues!

Cool. That would make sense with what I did. I'll test it out tonight!

I picked up a Red Tent on the weekend and was playing through Vs Excitebike on a later level (4, 5, or 6) when my bike and rider suddenly turned black and red and I had infinite turbo until I crashed. I don't know how I got it. I remember wiping out another rider while I rode over a turbo cool-down arrow and then it happened. Has anyone else ever got this power up? How did I get it?
