I've just added 13 episodes of the awesome Dragon Warrior anime which aired in 1989! Here's what Wikipedia has to say about this series:

Dragon Warrior: Legend of the Hero Abel (ドラゴン クエスト I - 勇者アベル伝説 Doragon Kuesuto I - Yūsha Aberu Densetsu?, lit. Dragon Quest I - Legend of the Hero Abel) is a 1989 Japanese animated television series based on the video game series of the same name.
The complete series boxset was released On 10 September 2006. Only 13 Episodes were shown in the United States dubbed in English by Saban Entertainment.

Here's what the release NFO says:

Dragon Quest is loosely based on Dragon Quest III. The names and some of the characters are familiar, but the world map is smaller and a very different shape. The two main characters are Abel and Tialah. Tialah receives the legendary Red Stone from the Aliahan Village sage Master Yogi.
Soon after, Tialah is kidnapped by the evil Baramos who wants to use the Red Stone to resurrect The Great Dragon and be granted eternal life. Abel swore to rescue Tialah and he is given the Blue Stone, which can only seal the Dragon once it has been released.

So we've pretty much got all the English episodes that ever came out:

Dragon Warrior Level 01 - Ariahan Village
Dragon Warrior Level 02 - Departure
Dragon Warrior Level 03 - Leebe Village
Dragon Warrior Level 04 - Girl Warrior Daisy
Dragon Warrior Level 05 - Port Myla
Dragon Warrior Level 06 - Light of Hope
Dragon Warrior Level 07 - Escape from Dragon Channel
Dragon Warrior Level 08 - Lunar Eclipse
Dragon Warrior Level 09 - Attacking Guam

I've just added 4 complete DVD's of Street Fighter II V to our Video Game TV-Shows Section. The series is an anime derived from Street Fighter II. It's a pretty decent watch, here's some more info from Wikipedia:

Street Fighter II V​ (ストリートファイターⅡ Ｖ, pronounced "two vee"), is an anime series based on the fighting game Street Fighter II. Directed by Gisaburo Sugii (who also directed the previous movie version), the series first aired in Japan in 1995, from April 10 to November 27, on YTV. An English adaptation of the series was produced by ADV Films in 1997 and was originally released on VHS, utilizing an English cast they hired themselves. Since then in 2000, Manga Entertainment, produced a new English dub, with the co-operation of Animaze and released that dub to VHS and DVD. The show has been broadcast on American cable networks including USA, Syfy, Encore WAM, G4, and over-the-air network NBC.

The 4 DVDs that we have cover the entire series from episode 01 to 29. If you're a street fighter fan, you should definitely look into grabbing these. The DVDs include English & Japanese subs. Grab Street Fighter Two Vee and tons of other great shows at our Video Game TV-Shows Section.

Some of our users requested that we have an update pack from MAME 0.138 to 0.139 to make it easy for them to get the latest additions. Well, here you go, we now have the MAME 0.138 to 0.139 ROMs Update Pack available for you! It's just 50MB in size so should be a breeze to update from your 0.138 set. If you don't yet have the 0.138 set you can grab it from our Complete ROM Sets Section. Makes downloading a large number of files quite easy :)
