No.24209 JimCarlTay Senior Tester 4 hours ago	Frankly, there is an earlier Atari vector-based game known simply as "Star Wars" (starwars), so also calling swa "Star Wars" is going to muddle and confuse things. The inclusion of "Arcade" in the title is enough to differentiate it from the Atari game.
No.24211 hap Developer 2 hours ago	If there's 2 different games have equal game titles, we usually add company info to the title. Or form factor info, like (handheld) or (pinball).
No.24212 Haze Senior Tester 1 hour ago	Yeah, the arcade version does not have 'Arcade' in the title, nor is it featured anywhere in the advertising material or cabinet. Arcade is used on the 32X version to hype up the fact that it's an arcade port. It should just be "Star Wars (Sega)" in MAME
No.24213 JimCarlTay Senior Tester 1 hour ago	I've done that through a pull request.
