MAME needed some more Rick Astley, and this ROM exists ;)

The ROM was downloaded from "vizzed.net" and the time stamp inside it might not reflect the origin, but I haven't been able to track down a more primary source ("rick roll" ain't the easiest thing to search for with narrowing things down). If the date should be revised later, so be it, but 2008 is around the right time frame for Rick Rolling's hey day.

Unfortunately, the "!" in the file name will fail validation and let you down.

This was apparently originally released as a ROM hack of Super Mario World under the title Xka Shack Demo. The 2008 date seems to be correct.

Thanks @arjhacker for uncovering it.
