Hi, everybody! First post!
Recently we got a Ms Pac Man cocktail at my work, and I got re-bitten by the arcade gaming bug. Went to an auction yesterday, and wound up impulse buying a Phoenix. It worked, looked to be in decent shape (plywood is a little banged up at the bottom) and was $125, so what the hell!
Upon doing a little investigating at KLOV, I think maybe I have one of the bootlegs that were produced.
The screen at the bottom says, "G.G.I Corporation", and the marquee and side art are different then the Centuri version.
The BIGGIE is that the control panel has a 2-way joystick instead of the buttons on the Centuri version.
Am I correct? Can anyone tell me a little more about this unit? I'd like to restore it, but I'm unsure whether to restore it as it is, or convert it into a Centuri style cabinet. Are the ROMs different between the two?
Thanks in advance for any info you guys can provide.
