A properly formatted set of credits are stored in the main CPU at 0x5635. There may be a way to display this in-game, though the method, if it exists, is unknown.

Unused Graphics

Uncensored Used Image
If you squint, they make up the eyes of a bug monster Oh no, I'm blind!

The trophy woman was supposed to have nipples visible through her shirt, which was apparently too scandalous for Bally Midway. The censored tiles appear later in the object graphics ROM.

With the way they censored it, though, people could still confuse the shading here for something inappropriate.

Unused Pic Final Game
Get that tiny woman out of that screen! Bundled with any purchase of Dead Island Riptide

An additional, smaller picture of the trophy woman is in the ROM. This should have been used when the Reward Screen dip switch was on the "Limited" setting, but they just cut off the larger image at 64 pixels instead.
