This system is based on a custom CPU. Graphics are decoded but only 2 bitplanes hooked.
All the needed devices are in the driver, but commented out till can properly decrypt the program ROMs and identify the CPU.
About the encryption scheme, see the driver notes about my findings.

I tend to agree if they've regressed, we should leave them marked working and accept bug reports on them.

After a chat with Tafoid, I'm unsure about whether or not I should have demoted kazan and dirtfoxj, as these games worked fine before, and broke due to a bug somewhere. What's the policy on the 'not working' flag? Does it only apply to games that were always broken since the 1st day it was submitted? This can also be important regarding mametesters bugs: reports on non-working games are not accepted.
Corrected one rom name in the 2 player Asia version
Added clones per driver standard (ie: corrected rom names for the Euro x-men set)
Changed the Asia set name to "xmen2pa" for a more unified naming convention
New Clones Added

This fix mantis 03433: Jolly Card, Royal Card, Lucky Lady, Royal Vegas sets (and others)...: All games that need NVRAM initialized aren't working anymore.
* Discovered and documented new features in Jolly Card (Evona Electronics).
* Removed the commented hack for joly980 driver init since is not needed anymore.
* Fixed a bug introduced with the massive input change, that didn't allow initialize
all sets that need the normal procedure to do it.
* Updated technical notes.
