Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling 2 works now too.
This one was extremely painful because it was so elusive. It turned out to be, probably, a recompiler stale cashe issue that affected certain instructions that operate on the stack pointer. It is not clear what the root cause is, why it triggers, or anything only that rewriting certain instructions to a different forms avoids it.
As it took forever and was so painful, I care not about the root cause anymore. The game seems to work, I don;t care why any more. It is a bowling game so probably no one in the whole world wants to play this game anyway. But it works now.
(Can you tell I am extremely frustrated?)
My goal is that every game on the PS1 compatibility list that were flagged as "Unplayable" need to be fixed. This was one more of them. I think there are only 6 left. On to the next one. I am more than halfway there now. Outlook good.
