There's a great Battle Garegga guide on the shmups forum: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=351

There used to be a really great one called The Genius of Garegga but those links seem to be broken now.

Also, is anyone else having issues with the Garegga DIPs? Rules say extra life 1000k, my only bonus life choices are none and 2000k. Also I have no choice of region (should be Japan). I'm using .162.

You need to go into the 'machine configuration' menu first, then select Japan, then select the 'reset' option. Then, when you go into dipswitches the 1000k option will be available and already selected. See the attached png for pictures of each step.

Cheers,

Mustache Boy level 5 ? How do you finish this level? Is it broken? Or are players just getting lucky and skipping it?

U need to utilize the double jump. Hit jump once, then at the apex of your jump, hit jump again. It kind of shows you in the forced instructions when you start your game, but the game is such chit it can't even get instructions to be clear.

Quick note: as of MAME 0.164, bublbob2 was moved to bublbob2o, with v2.6O taking it's place.

So, for the purposes of this version (v2.5O): If you're using 0.164, you should use bublbob2o, for older versions, use bublbob2. All should be uploaded to bublbob2o.
