Feature Summary:
It appears that parts of the Contra Anniversary Collection are based on old MAME code. An old, fixed bug in MAME is present in Contra (Arcade) -- the rolling mines in the 3D stages roll to the right side. If possible, see if this could be patched.
Is your proposal related to a problem?
Rolling mines should roll straight and not curve towards the right side of the screen.
Describe the solution you'd like
Here's the MAME fix from a long time ago, which involves a missing multiplier/divider function: mamedev/mame@c1bf2b9
This might be extremely difficult to implement, but it would greatly improve the quality of the emulation if we could get this one major issue fixed.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The only other real fix would be to use a different emulator, such as MAME or FBNeo.
