Acorde a la pagina de internet "Insertmorecoins" un usuario llamado Shoutime había adquirido el rom de este juego prototipo de Atomiswave

El informe de 2016 (España?) dice lo siguiente:

"Shoutimeconsigue otro nuevo prototipo de Atomiswave (Chase 1929)
insertmorecoins viernes 23 septiembre, 2016.-
Shoutime conocido colaborador de Mame y coleccionista de videojuegos y material variado ha conseguido mediante contactos que le presten una unidad del conocido prototipo de Atomiswave del juego Chase 1929 (Europe) lanzado en America como Chicago 1929 (US).

Con este juego y su previsible dumpeo cuando se tengan las herramientas necesarias (ya que ha sido un prestamo temporal solo para este cometido) estariamos un paso más cerca de poder conseguir todos los juegos que se conocen de este sistema ya que como sabeis de anteriores entradas hace poco consiguio Kenju y Force Five dos de los juegos más buscados de este sistema".

Para el que no conozca este juego hay varios videos en Youtube donde se pueden ver imagenes del juego in-game, de todas formas os pongo un video que vi hace muchos años y que aun sigue vivo en la plataforma.
Según las informaciones que tengo aún quedarian 4 prototipos por descubrir y dumpear Wai Wai Drive, Miracle Stadium, Block Pong Pong y el juego de futbol Premier Eleven del que se ha visto alguna vez que otra alguna subasta pero a un precio desorbitado para el tipo de juego que es y la razon por la que aun no esta dumpeado. Los otros 3 son de los tipicos que se hacen para el publico japonés por lo que suscitan mucho menos interes que los mencionados anteriormente en este articulo".

Chase 1929 flyer (Europe): En 2018 la pagina de Facebook de la sala Arcades "Galloping Ghost Arcade" publicó en inglés lo siguiente respecto al rumbo que siguió este Arcade en Estados Unidos:

"Next from the expansion is Chicago 1929! Its an unreleased, one of one prototype! It was not released from Sammy in 2004 on the Sega Atomiswave hardware. While pretty much complete in game play, it wasn't even put into a final cart form and runs off a mini PCB that plugs into where the cart would go.
Its a great smash racer that has cars styled from the 1920s. It debuted at T20 and was really well received so we are very happy to have it on the arcade floor now.
We picked it up from Jason Wilson and the Game Galaxy Arcade out in Tennessee. Huge thanks to Jason for selling it to us. It was once owned by Troy Smith too.
Its the only known instance of the game and there is definitely not a lot of info on the game online. We will be setting up direct feed on it soon to show off more of the game play soon!
Another game you won't be able to play any where other than Galloping Ghost Arcade!"

Galloping Ghost Arcade is the largest Arcade place collection in the world and it was created for preservating lost and rare arcades: In the Galloping Ghost Arcade's official web it says:

"The players that come to the Galloping Ghost Arcade have helped create a community that is unmatched. While extremely competitive, it is a very relaxed and inviting community. Players are quick to share information and help each other become better gamers. While some players take the competition to a very high level, they all respect other players at the arcade, creating an amazing environment from casual play to pro".

The ""Chicago 1929" (US) Atomiswave machine they have: There is no Atomiswave "cartridge":
Anyone near that Arcade floor in the US or any info about who is the owner could lead to the next Atomiswave game port

Según las informaciones que tengo aún quedarian 4 prototipos por descubrir y dumpear Wai Wai Drive, Miracle Stadium, Block Pong Pong y el juego de futbol Premier Eleven

Is this text copied from somewhere? because Wai Wai Drive and Block Pong Pong are freely available

The owner would be Doc Mack, the owner of Galloping Ghost arcade in Chicago. He’s on Twitter and Twitch, as I recall.

Doc's also a super cool dude, most likely he will help you out in some way when he can!

Yes, what is between ".." is from the page link. That is from 2016. The most upated info is that from below from 2018, I could confirm by these direct sources the machine Chicago 1929 is in that Chicago arcade room! (but as you can see it is not the only one in the world)

I mean I live about a half hour away from Galloping Ghost. Haven't seen it on the floor there but haven't been in like 4+ years either so

Can you imagine if he was putting this out on the floor for plebeians to deface and have access to such a rare machine? I hope he is keeping it safe at least. Though, on the other hand it would be cool if he entrusted the general public to not destroy it if on the floor.

That is literally what he does. He has several prototype and unreleased games on the arcade floor for anyone who comes through to play.

Wow damn that is crazy to think about. I am sure he makes good money from people coming in to play them. Guessing so far he has had good experience in the past with it, so maybe no problems.

Wait, is the the same guy who posted video footage of the arcade unit on YouTube?

Would love to try that game, would be even beter to play it on my dreamcast. Do you guys think it would ever happen?
