Air Busters crashes at start of second stage?

[Jedi Master Thrash]

Anyone else have the problem of Air Busters always crashing at the start of the second stage (or maybe 3rd, the one with dark background)? I was wondering if maybe this is just caused by using the infinite lives game genie code, or if just my copy of the game is bad somehow, or if it's a real flaw?

Thanks,

JMT.

Where does it lock up at? Air Buster has this weird 'loading time' thing going on between stages, so I just want to make sure that's not what you're describing. I believe the space level is the third one, IIRC.

I think it happened on the 4th level once, and the 3rd level another time I think. Near the beginning of the level (once the level has already started, after that weird loading screen).

I just tried playing with and without the game genie with just 1-player, and didn't have any freezes. It seems to only happen with 2-player simultaneous.

I've experienced similar "Lock-Ups" in other MEga Drive/Genesis games in the past...

Gaiares - Towards the end when you fight all the Bosses in the linear fashioned way, some times it will freeze.

Zero Wing - About in the middle of the 5hn level it froze on me once.

Gynoug - The game freezed when I paused while fighting the Final Boss...

It never unpaused again.

I've never had a a real Aero Blasters CArt in the past to try it out, but the above problems I've witnessed them in several different carts & in 2 two diffrerent systems.

Try cleaning the connectors with some toilet paper...
