I'm sure this will go down in the dumb question hall of fame - are there any other boards that will work in an asteroids game just to get a visual. I'm not expecting game play. I'm finally picking up a game that doesn't have the main board and it's been sitting for years. I'm trying to avoid this being a two month process. Buy pcb, find out that the power brick is garbage, order parts and rebuild brick, find out there are monitor issues.
 
Chris is right, an Asteroids Deluxe board will work to show a display on the monitor, but you won't be able to play the game as the controls are wired differently. I believe they are swapped with the coin mechs.

You snagged the cheap dead cab?

Shouldn't be too hard to find a local w/ a board.
 
yeah, I was going to pass on it and then the price got lowered to the point that it became a steal. The guy just wants it gone.
