DU: Still invading your space

Andy Welburn found a rare Space Invaders board that has a previously undumped rom set with rom numbers in the teens. He says out of the hundreds of Space Invaders boards he has seen, this is the first one he has found with this rom set.

Another good find by Andy and this one will wind up getting the Space Invaders text from src/mame/drivers/8080bw.cpp to be revised once again. Too bad the pcb doesn't have chip locations unlike many other various Taito pcbs.

The info, such as specific comments being removed, will look different once this SI pcb is supported. This is current excerpt from the file src/mame/drivers/8080bw.cpp


GAME( 1978, sisv1, "Taito", "Space Invaders (SV Version rev 1)", MACHINE_NOT_WORKING | MACHINE_IMPERFECT_SOUND | MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )
GAME( 1978, sisv2, "Taito", "Space Invaders (SV Version rev 2)", MACHINE_IMPERFECT_SOUND | MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )
GAME( 1978, sisv3, "Taito", "Space Invaders (SV Version rev 3)", MACHINE_IMPERFECT_SOUND | MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )
GAME( 1978, sisv, "Taito", "Space Invaders (SV Version rev 4)", MACHINE_IMPERFECT_SOUND | MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )
GAMEL(1978, sitv1, "Taito", "Space Invaders (TV Version rev 1)", MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE, layout_invaders )
GAMEL(1978, sitv, "Taito", "Space Invaders (TV Version rev 2)", MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE, layout_invaders )
GAME( 1979, sicv, "Taito", "Space Invaders (CV Version)", MACHINE_IMPERFECT_SOUND | MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )
