console image A 16-bit arcade system board manufactured by Taito. The Taito F2 system is a fairly flexible hardware platform. It supports 4 separate layers of graphics - one 64x64 tiled scrolling background plane of 8x8 tiles, a similar foreground plane, a sprite plane capable of handling all the video chores by itself (used in e.g. Super Space Invaders) and a text plane which may or may not scroll. The text plane has 8x8 characters which are generated in RAM.
