I realized there was no official thread to announce this kit.
Some details

1. kit consists of nvram and two eproms
2. here is the install guide, some soldering required http://arcade.souzaonline.com/Docs/Commando_High_Score_Kit.pdf
3. Has free play mode or coin mode
4. World and US versions available

Kit is $45 shipped in the US, please contact Slava and [email protected] to order
(I only wrote the code, Slava builds and ships out the kits)
 
Here is some feedback I received from someone with the kit installed, slightly edited to protect the identity of the innocent ;P

I like the HSS kit a lot! It's made Commando almost as popular as my Donkey Kong (with Braze HSS kit) with my friends! I'm having a big party.... so the HSS kit in Commando will get a work-out! Thanks for the follow-up!

Congrats Souzilla and Madrits on completing another fantastic HSS kit and thank you very much for taking on this project. Also thanks to the 15 folks that prepayed for kits to help make this available to all Commando owners. If you have the game I strongly suggest grabbing this kit!

I'll own up to that quote!
I have the World version HSS kit in now, and love it! Thanks to everyone involved in its production!
I didn't know souzilla was going to offer both versions! Really cool option for those who want the extra characters in the World version High Score table.

Commando has always been a favourite of mine but now I can't stop playing trying to get the high scores I used to achieve in the 80's so they can stay in the PCB forever thanks to this great kit!

The Freeplay option is fab, means the attract mode runs to avoid screen burn.

Kit works great, even after making a journey thousands of miles and does not mind the UK climate at all lol.
 
I have Outrun and Commando. I thougt about installing save kits for both of them but when I think about it I'm not sure.

I want the kit to store my best score and my friends best scores.
But in reality all slots will be filled with my scores and not my friends scores. Because I play them more and will get close to my best score every time pushing them out.

Someone should make a kit where it will only save the score if it is better than the score already saved for that name. If not it should not save. That way you and your friends can all have their best scores remembered.

This probably requires some careful logic (I see some problems) but it would be cool. Dont you think?

Installed the kit, it works great!! Highly recommend. If you want to erase the scores, it tells you how to also.
 
Opps-my bad. Thanks for replying and looking forward to one of these kits!!!
