I got a new boardset for my broken Cheyenne. Cheyenne is a player now. Thanks to PacRay for the boards, and Nanoryan for the deal on the game!

When I compared the new to my old boards, they are populated differently and have different ROMsets. I always wondered why my game said "anteup" and not "mooo" when I turned it on. Well, I am pretty sure that my game had been converted to Showdown. ROMS say SDAxxx on them.

Anyone play this game? Seems pretty weird, playing cards with a rifle? WTF?

Is it worth getting the boards fixed to play it?

Thanks!
 
it's nothing incredible by any means. the only gimmick to the game is when someone gets mad and says "step outside, you sidewinder!" and then you have a quick showdown. that's it. otherwise, it's just an oversized poker game. i would rather have ANY OTHER Exidy 440 game than SHOWDOWN.

Thanks man, thats the kind of info I was looking for. I probably will not be in a big hurry to send the boards in for repair.
