I have a Tumblepop PCB that I traded for as working but I can't get it to boot. I got it to boot properly once out of ~50 attempts. Not sure what's wrong with it (or maybe what's wrong with me :p). Game just displays garbage and loops 3-4 seconds of one of a few songs. If anyone wants it for $15 shipped in the continental US, it's yours. I'll be moving at the end of the year and it'll probably end up in the trash instead of making the journey over to the new house. I'd rather see this end up fixed or used for parts than in a landfill, so feel free to make offers.
 
this is jamma right? If so did you try bumping up the 5v a bit? that often gets jamma games to boot correctly that don't do so at 5v.
 
Yes, it's JAMMA, no I didn't try that. Honestly, if I need to bump +5v to get it to work, it defeats the purpose, as I traded for it as a test PCB. Still, I might try it if I have some spare time soon.

Since it displays an image (although garbage) and outputs sound, I guess it still fulfills audio/video tests. :)
