This version of TnF pcb is pretty uncommon. It is unencrypted, no customs on this board, and no known schematics are available from what I have read.

Got it up and running, changed out battery for a large 2450 coin cell and could play it.

Game was playable but background was jacked up. Not static, it was moving almost like bad sync in background only.

Poked around 6116 ram, which led me to believe one may be bad, removed and tested both out of circuit, both passed. Socketed and reinstalled.

Moved down to 273 that runs to those two ram. Failed out of circuit. Replaced. Repaired.

Hope this helps someone else in the future.

I think I'll be putting this one in my TnF cab once @MrDark is done with it.

No customs to mess with and worry about, new battery and will be as clean as it's ever been by tomorrow.

All cleaned up. Reassembled and tested again. New standoffs and feet. Am excited to get this in my cab.

So the next question comes up:

TnF buttons or trackball more fun?

Second question, if buttons, regular buttons you can cheat your ass off with, or security buttons to make it harder to cheat?
