I've been doing research lately on converting Exidy boards into other games so I thought it might make an interesting thread to list which boards can be converted with simple ROM swaps, not including hacks, or conversions that require additional hardware like daughterboards or protection chips.
The list so far:
Confirmed:
- Venture / Pepper II
- Two Tigers / Tron / Spy Hunter (with control panel re-wiring)
- Elevator Action / Jungle King (or Hunt) / Alpine ski
- Stargate / Joust / Robotron / Alien Arena
- Double Dragon / Dangerous Dungeons
- Rally X / New Rally X
- Targ / Spectar
- Non-daughter board dependant Nintendo VS games
- Pole Position / Pole Position II
Unconfirmed and/or may require additional hardware hacking (IE jumpers, etc):
- Venture / Teeter Torture
- Crash! / Circus / Rip Cord
- Kangaroo / Funky Fish
- Star Fire / Star Fire II
- Jungle Hunt (or King) / Pirate Pete
- Looping / Sky Bumper
- Color version of Space Invaders / Steel Worker
- Radarscope / Donkey Kong
- Lost Tomb / Mighty Monkey (major hardware hack) / Scorpion / Strategy X / Port Man / Turpin / Anteater / Scramble
- Video Pool / Dig Dug / Pengo / Puckman / Mine Field / Frogger / Crazy Kong / Bagman / DK JR / Jungler / Galaxian
- Tempest / Tempest Tubes
- San Francisco Rush / San Francisco Rush - the Rock
- Defender / Mayday!!
Again, I left out anything that required custom components and/or protection chips which by chasing them down you might as well find the original board.
