Summary 09284: Some games in xavix.cpp: Several xavix games doesn't boot throwing Eeprom/Memory errors
Description I'm not sure when this problem started to happen but when I've wanted to play some xavix games again, I've started to notice that several games running with that hardware had problems booting up, showing either Eep-rom or Memory errors.
Some xavix games were still fine to boot, i couldn't test all of them because i don't have every xavix rom

The following games are the ones I've tested and fails to boot:

- Champiyon Pinball [tomcpin]
- Jumping Popira [jpopira] (Also the carts jp01 & jp02 were affected too but the rest of the carts boots just fine)
- Let's! TV Play Chou Ninki Spot! Korogashi-Houdai Tamagotchi Resort [ltv_tam]
- Let's! TV Play Classic - Namco Nostalgia 1 & 2 [namcons1 & namcons2]
- Let's! TV Play Classic - Taito Nostalgia 1 & 2 [taitons1 & taitons2]

There might be more affected xavix games, if you found more, you can comment them.
Steps To Reproduce Just try launching one of the games mentioned in the description and they will prevent from booting up because of a Eeprom/Memory error
