I received a couple of Taito Conversion manuals in the mail today that came from Ebay.

Flipping through them, I found something funny. It was a Jungle Hunt to Elevator Action conversion manual. Near the last page, a folded sheet fell out.

It was a printout of the pinouts /switch settings from the internet.

Back in the days before everybody had scanner access to load manuals to pdf, people manually typed in switch settings and pinouts to 'contribute' to the rgvac and beyond communities.

These were pinouts that I, myself typed in and submitted a long long time ago.
Funny getting something in the mail that you put together yourself :)
 
That is pretty cool. It's like a time capsule.

You should contact the seller and ask if they printed them off, or if it was something they got that way. Could be a cool way to connect with them.
 
Oh, I thought you were going to mention something like this. I don't remember which game it was for but I remember seeing a game PCB schematic that was originally in Japanese but had been translated. It had multiple counter signals and the abbreviation they chose to use was CUNT. So there were several signal lines labled, CUNT 1, CUNT 2, CUNT 3, ect. I'm thinking that the game was TMNT but I can't remember for sure.
