Wrote up the mod on UKVac too: https://www.ukvac.com/forum/threads/arkanoid-multi-a-diy-mod.79568/

Hey, I just tested 100ns and it worked for me. I was pretty hopeful as I'd bought 10 at that speed!

I highly recommend using Unibios 4.0 if you often use a 161-1 cart. The pick-n-mix mode is awesome as it filters the list down to about 90 games (no hacks etc) and replaces the menu with something that looks really professional. I liked it so much I made a little mod to always boot into...

Here it is; let us know how you get on! - GitHub repo with docco, scripts and gerbers for Arkanoid Multi: https://github.com/Phillrb/arkanoid_multi - GitHub repo for MCU Bypass PCB gerbers and docco: https://github.com/mdeslaur/arkanoid-mpu-bypass - PCBWay shared project for Arkanoid Multi...

Yes, flipping and cocktail mode both work. My PCBs arrived yesterday and the design is tested working :) I'm making a few minor adjustments now and hope to have the whole lot up on Github very soon (there was a superfluous pull-up resistor). I'll be releasing links to the Gerbers and also a...

I can confirm that Freeplay mode works on both versions! Also works well with 'Continued Play' for both players. For my own future reference: Arkanoid Freeplay ROM DIPS -> OFF or ON Cocktail or Upright Credit or Freeplay Lives 3 or 5 Bonus at 20K/60K or 20k only Difficulty Easy or Hard Test...

Now in a cab:

A DECO cab converted to Arkanoid. Cassette guts are long-gone sadly, but a sweet conversion all the same.

A big thanks to @mdeslaur (op) for all the hard work here. I'm sure there's a number of us on this but here's my version of an Arkanoid-multi using these patches and the MCU bypass pcb. I've designed and ordered a real pcb for the prom handling (just waiting on it). Please be aware that it is...

Hey, if you successfully bypass the mcu with a ROMset, please can you share how you did it?! I'd love to do this on original hardware too (for both Arkanoid & Tournament Arkanoid).

BAD HARDWARE is probably the MCU 68705. It has a prom in it so it could be faulty.

Has anyone successfully burnt and used the lunar lander 'test' romset on a real pcb? I really want to display a decent test grid for debugging the PCB but not sure which eproms actually need swapping out. Once fitted, is it just a case of using test mode again, or does it replace the game mode...

Hi all, Who deals with correcting or amalgamating Museum of the Game entries? The entry for 'Coupe Du Monde' needs to have the following removed from the description: "Coupe Du Monde World Cup was Pong Doubles released for the French market". Coupe Du Monde, although using an identically...

Wanted to put my Atari WCC PCB on the bench to start repairing it and didn't find the pinout. Read through the service manual and made the below, so thought i'd share. It'd be gerat if an admin could copy it over to the machine info. Games that use Atari WCC PCB (despite what might actually be...

Another option worth considering might be to use a larger AM6012 DAC (in the open slot) and populate the supporting resistors just like Asteroids Deluxe. Only worth trying if you really can't get the ad561j DAC though.

That's excellent! It's great to have even more options depending on what GAL you have to hand. Can you share the JED file here so that everyone can use it?

The veritable @Porchy has created a new replacement for the Asteroids / Deluxe PROM (34602) at C8 using a GAL22v10: http://wiki.pldarchive.co.uk/index.php?title=Asteroids The PROM at C8 is a 82S129 or compatible that runs the vector state machine. These PROMs are getting increasingly harder to...

That's excellent, thanks for sharing links to those! Yes, if you have spare original 2114s then by all means use those; we all like original parts. This 6116 adapter is a reversible solution that you might want to use at a pinch if you are low in stock of 2114s or have a surplus of 6116 at...

I've shared my Atari Asteroids / Asteroids Deluxe 2114 CPU RAM to 6116 SRAM adapters on PCBWay: https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/Asteroids_6116_RAM_adapter_0467de9b.html Get some printed and I'll likely get a small % of the sales. For those in the UK, I have a few in stock if you...

Just for the sake of future searches, it's possible to convert an AR-I-01 (A034485-01) to an AR-I-03 (A034485-03) with only a few modifications. This means you can modify an Asteroids AR1 to work in an Asteroids Deluxe cab. You will need to swap 4 capacitors and add 2 pull-down resistors which...
