Notes : This board was totally custom and very expensive to produce, it was only really designed for one game (Brave Fire Fighters) as it could do complex fire/water graphics.
There were eventually only 6 games made for this system beforce it was dropped in favour of the much cheaper Naomi 2.
It was also the first arcade board to be able to do phong shading.
