One of the MiSTer FPGA devs found a work-around and asked if you could give the game a unique serial number.
I'm passing along the Dev's comments:
The bus arbitration in our core is not ideal most games don't care, but some do, so this one needs a FIFO tweak to make it behave correctly but to do that, I have to be able to uniquely identify the game, which means the serial has to be meaningful, not all 0's
