Difference between arkanoid and tournament arkanoid

What is the actual difference between arkanoid and tournament arkanoid? What makes the tournament board able to go into cocktail mode? Can you hack an original arkanoid board to make it go into cocktail mode?

So I found a picture of an arkanoid tournament PCB and it is exactly the same as the standard romstar version. This changes my question a bit. How do I get this board to run in cocktail mode?

I think it's the eproms and the microcontroller.

To my knowledge, original Taito Arkanoid & Tournament Arkanoid doesn't support cocktail mode; only bootlegs (and Taito Revenge of Doh)

Maybe, with the bootleg code. Not sure what to do with the mcu...
