Summary	08151: vsfdf: Demo mode quickly skips title screen + coin funniness
Description	At the end of the opening montage the title screen flashes by for only a split second. The game then goes to the 1P/2P game select screen as if you had entered two coins already. Furthermore, after a game over screen the game will not return to demo mode, but again go to the 1P/2P game select screen, coins having rolled over to 99. Of note here is that it always shows the 1P/2P game select screen. This is not the normal behavior upon inserting 1 coin—that normally gives only a 1P game select screen.
Steps To Reproduce	mame vsfdf -> wait and do not enter a coin -> title screen appears after cool sunglasses dude

Also, the recent banking simplification made to this and related VS games has no noticeable effect on this problem, FWIW.
