Not a bug. Viewing the rom files in a hex editor as seen above, shows that the word "SCANDAL" and the word "FOR" have been removed from
newpuc2. Not surprising, afterall it is a bootleg of a bootleg.

The missing "0" is at the end of the same line as the SCANDAL text. If the bottom highlighted line is copied and pasted onto the upper highlitghted line
in a hex editor or that line typed in over the rom and then saved, then along with the other files needed to run newpuc2 are loaded into mame and credit the game
the screen you posted originally is what will be displayed.

OK, then it was probably like that in the original game as well.
By the way, newpuc2b doesn’t show the problem.

Thanks for the clear explanation.
