I have the honor of announce you a definitive fixed version of DDP DOJ Black Label dual, with DDP original bios for avoiding the IGS PGM boot-up animation and datetime table. It boots directly on the selection screen.

So, I tried this version today and it seems similarly fussy about the initial NVRAM state as the version that was used before the iq_132 patch - on my first try it crashes right after copyright screen on both version A and version B (version A with a weird error misaligned by half a screen, version B with the ADDRESS ERROR and a more normal looking error...

I never got that screen again after I performed the memory reset from the service menu of the Black Label (I think the option is called DEFAULT or something like that).

Tried that today but still the same issue.
 
Is your dip switch 8 on or off?

I think this has an impact on whether or not i see this issue.
 
Thanks to @iq_132 we can have a new version of Ketsui - MATSURI 2007 Edition. Ready for being used on Fluffy's cartridges @Fluffy

First of all, these are the changes this version has: http://cool-create.cc/diary/category/nocategory/1190740492.html

The coloring of A-TYPE and B-TYPE is reversed. (A is blue and B is red)
After defeating the 1-5 boss at the end of the first round, you fight Doom.
The second round is suddenly barrage from the beginning. There is no counterattack. The latter half of the game has a lot of first-round barrages.
Or rather, the first and second rounds of barrages were mixed together, so it was confusing.
The scoring system is the same as the first round.
But the distance judgment for box items is extremely strict, so [2] and [3] come out a lot.
You start with 1 bomb and 1 bomb remaining (default is 2 bombs and 3 bombs remaining). If you die, you get 1 bomb (default 3).
You get extra lives if you clear each stage with no mistakes or no bombs. I think.
　I feel like the lives didn't increase on the 4th stage.
No score extension? There are extension items on the 3rd and 5th stages.

An extra note to add is your helicopter has very tiny hitboxes, so you are almost a god.
The last boss has its second phase unlocked by default, and if you lose all the lives you can't continue anymore.

@iq_132 has fixed the bugcolor when choosing the helicopter. Is a factory-bug the M2 enterprise fixed in the Playstation 4 port.

Also I have been in charge of the tests, and only there is a minor glitch, which has been proven correct.

The Matsuri version wasn't made for being "FREE PLAY", so you can see a situation when playing in this mode with player 2. If you pass any of the phases 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 or 4-5, in Player 1 text section will say "PLEASE WAIT". After entering the new level you'll see "FREE PLAY" text again on its side, but also "PLEASE WAIT" text blinking. This is the only glitch as is really a minor one but because this version wasn't suposed to be on FREE PLAY mode in the Matsuri event.

Here in this post are attached P1 eprom for Matsuri version and also a new REMIX P1 version with joint Master Ver. and Matsuri. (a .7z file inside a .zip file)

Interesting, Dip 8 was on, I get the first picture when I try to load white lable unless I load black lable first, if I load black go into the test menu then go out and load white it works fine.
So I turned Dip 8 off now I get the first picture if I load white lable and the second picture if I load black both appear immediately after the "this games is for Japan only blah blah blah" screen.
So Dip 8 on I guess it has to be. Tried default on both scenarios no different.

Just wrote the remix version to P1 and wanted to check that I got this right: This is the original and matsuri versions selectable via J2 but I need to use the u5 gal in the archive?
