The Killing Blade / Ao Jian Kuang Dao (ver. 100) [XeD]
- Got boards gs2004 and gs2013 working and merged them into related classes (they differ solely by a fixed bank number).
- Simplified tf9in1 board and fixed its graphics issues (sets mc_20a, mc_tf9).

Tetris Family 6 in 1 (GS-2004)
Tetris Family 12 in 1 (GS-2013)
- This multicart doesn't fully work because it's a bad dump--the second 2MB is missing and is a repeat of the first half. New checksums are for the first 2MB.
- Merged two devices (for identical mappers 225 and 255).
- Larger-sized carts now work (sets mc_110, mc_115).
- Added 4 nibbles of work RAM that presumable affect in-game settings.
- Removed set mc_110a which was listed as being a possible corrupt dump. It only contained half of mc_110's PRG ROM—in repeated 256K chunks.

In the original code all values are signed integers, so m_dynindex would
overflow and become negative, then the modulus of a negative value by a
positive one would generate a negative result and finally the next array
read would make the program crash.
Also the maximum value plus one of m_dynindex is not generally a
multiple of m_dynamic and this would cause a jump in the values of
liveindex.
- Remove the hotspot read tracker. This was never robustly implemented, but changes to the memory system made it much less useful, and the "speedup opportunities" which it aimed to determine are not very important from a current emulation standpoint.
- Remove the CURSP/GENSP state symbol and the generic sp() getter. Stacking semantics vary too much between CPU architectures for this to be of much use. (A "SP" symbol has been added to a few CPU cores whose stack pointers were otherwise not being registered.)
- Remove the cached pointer to device_state_interface and the state() fast accessor from device_t. Most users of device_state_interface either already had a pointer to the specific CPU device type or needed to check first for the presence of the interface.
- Change the PC memory write tracker to use pcbase(), which works even when the instruction callback is masked out, instead of peeking at the PC history index.
- Remove some obsolete watchpoint-related definitions from machine.h.
