So I have a SF2 world warrior that's fully working but I would like it to be something else. Is there a list of games that this PCB will run with hopefully just a ROM swap? I don't want to get into modifying the board, if that's required I'll just sell this board and buy something else. But if I can swap some roms and make this a different game I'd like to do that. This "newer" stuff is outside of my normal area and I have limited knowledge of what these boards can do.
 
There's a "Quicken" rom hack that tries to mirror World Warrior to play like Hyper Fighting 🤔

Yeah I know about that. I actully have a hyper board on the way that's why I want to see if I can change this into something else completely like ghouls & ghosts or something like that. But I really don't understand this hardware so I'm not sure what's possible and what's not.

I think GadgetFreak's patch tool allows you to convert some CPS1 titles although I haven't used it for that.
You'll need to join the site but here's the link.

Ohhh gotcha, that's the first thing that came to mind that's "easy" swapping roms etc.
I'm gonna a paige @DuffCon as I believe he has successfully done a G&G conversion etc.

You should've said so. I have a Ghouls and Ghosts already modded this way.

You can always take the Hyper Fighting board and install a Darksoft CPS-1 multikit on it. You can't use it on World Warrior because it doesn't have the DASH variant bottom board and the A-board doesn't have the right version capcom custom chip on it. Not sure if it's available at the moment or sold out, and it is pricey, but very worth it IMO.
 
I'm not an expert, but as I understand it, there are a couple different things to make a conversion work. You have to have the right pal(gal) chip to accept the romset and the program chips have to be hacked to accept the b21 c-board because it has the ability yo carry any key. arcade rom patcher has the ability to allow many titles to do this. I've used it to fix my magic sword with a failed cboard. I've also converted a world warrior to gng, but a member here provided the roms. It works with the WW b-17 chip

The arcade-projects forums are more 90s leaning, so they have a lot more on this
