Ok like the title says, what are differences betweem cocktail and upright centipede differences.
Is it a dip switch, to have it run 2 track balls and flip video? Or a rom swap? Or something entirely different?

I have a beat to hell centipede upright, but I just picked up a taito birdie king 3 cocktail. Uses 2 track balls on opposing sides.
Thinking about multi ing it, or putting centipede in it or something..
 
Boards are the same. There's no DIP switch setting for cocktail, the selection is done via a pin on the edge connector that gets grounded. The board has inputs for two trak-balls.

Suu wheeeeeet!

Before I get a chance to go crazy on the internet this week anyone got a link to the specific info? I wonder if it is possibly in my uprights manual somewhere hiding!
 
There are lots of bugs in the game. Just shoot them before they kill you. :D

but the cocktail big makes the spider stay away from you on the 2player 2 side. I am not a good centipede player, but I would think you could use it to rack up a good score on the harder levels.
