Here is the plugin that makes Wicked Tuna playable! Install Bepinex x64 like normal since this is Unity based. Read the readme txt file for more installation instructions and controls. This supports keyboard and Xbox controllers. The plugin will also be posted on the Emuline discord for more access. Enjoy playing Wicked Tuna!

WickedTuna BepInEx Plugin.7z

This is the 4 player version of Wicked Tuna Arcade, the game by Unis Technology. The game is decrypted. All that is needed is controls. Enjoy!

Post edit: For those who have the arcade cabinet, here is the full restore software made for the game. This will only work with the 4 player cabinet.

Instructions: Extract the zip file somewhere on your pc. Then, place the extracted folders into a usb drive. After that, follow the instructions in your Wicked Tuna 4 player manual to restore the game to your machine. This will overwrite your hard drive so be careful installing unless you know what you're doing.

I can’t even begin to imagine how you found this unreleased arcade game! Very epic! I’m going to enjoy ripping the music for this one. You’ve given me a great project to work on. 🎉

Oh, you're referring to that arcade machine  We've got it abandoned and rusting away in our warehouse 🥲

Could you possibly dump the hard drive off of your machine? If there’s a dongle, see if that can get that dumped also.

I'm getting a BSOD after launching the vm with the vmdk. I have no idea what's going on.

Edit: I figured it out. You must absolutely set the VM to Windows XP or it will BSOD.

This looks very promising so far. Nice work!

It’s nice you still have the arcade machine. Hate that it’s rusting away.

Pirate's hook - data.dat is already extracted. Still needs a dongle in order to decrypt the exe.

Worked on the music for Nerf Arcade last year. Didn’t have game data at the time, but it’s amazing what you can find when videos showing the attract mode have copyright claims. All the music comes from Universal Production Music.

I still have the decrypted files. I’ll reupload whenever I get the chance. If not today, then this weekend.

I apologize if I sounded rude yesterday. There was little context in that statement, and I usually try not to sound rude or snarky.

What I should have said was that Harpoon Lagoon should get its own topic so it doesn’t interfere with this one, which is Fishin’ Time. Discussion can continue now.

We can always hope there is a solution someday. Looks like a fun light gun shooter. Might need to get these dumps off Archive.org...

How much progress has been made so far? Is it playable?

It looks very familiar this game, as if I have seen it or a very similar one before somewhere, its annoying me that I cannot remember where or when.

There's another ticket game called Zoofari, which was most likely designed by the same people who made Fishin' Time as both cabinets look sort of similar. You shoot peanuts into the animals' mouths to win tickets, where as in Fishin' Time, you catch fish.

There is an arcade redemption game called Fishin' Time that was made by ICE and Play Mechanix back in 2005. However, it has not surfaced anywhere on the internet, which is surprising. I wonder if we could find this ticket game and possibly get it dumped. Below is the cabinet along with the flyer and a video showing the attract mode.

You mean Santa is still bringing gifts?! That’s just wild.

Bless you WildWolf for moderating connor / robert / rrz, whatever his name is!

Works great! Took me a little bit to understand what's going on, but I figured it out after getting the W and A for WANTED. Will have to look at Test menu later. Good work Argon.

Now I just have to make notes for working on arcade OST now that it's playable. 👍

Awesome! Got it. Thanks WildWolf

Update: Got the music ripped! Looks like I got another arcade OST upload to put on my list

Link is dead after one day! Any chance of getting a reupload?

I like how COFFEE got ya in the discord...lol

Yeah, I’m kind of confused. I told him it was a Youtube video and not the game files. I know dump links are not allowed in the discord.

Maybe he was trying to joke with me? IDK

Other than that, I’m glad everyone is enjoying the latest music upload.

Here it is! Teratoma: The Last Rebellion OST

I have looked at the sound files and got the music ripped, so be expecting an upload soon! Going to aim for uploading to YouTube this weekend.

Anything for cheap security or best compression methods ...wasn't made to do what your doing...only run on the machine...

If I knew what compression method was used or the codec itself, I could get the AVI files to open properly.
