Double Dragon bootleg needs more voltage than legit pcb's
I've got a bootleg pcb in my Double Dragon and never really worried much about that fact until this morning. I swapped in my WrestleFest board and it was glitching just a litttle so in the course of trying to figure out why it turns out that my WrestleFest board was getting over 5.5 volts on it. The Double Dragon bootleg was set very close to +5 so for whatever reason it is a power hog. I was just curious in general if that's common for bootleg boards to be power hogs like that or not. Right now my plan is to just get an original Taito pcb at some point and if I want to play Double Dragon, it's going to have to deal with the +5 reading low at 4.75 when other legit JAMMA boards read much closer to how they should. Like I said just curious to know if it's a common thing for bootlegs. I did try a TMNT pcb and it was close to the same reading for WrestleFest.
