Preorders: Berzerk/Frenzy ZZPU

Mark, I have one of these in my Frenzy and it's great!!! However, it's set to "free play" so I don't get the "coin detected in pocket" sample. Is there a way to update the ROM to do this sample even when set to freeplay?

I'd love it (and actually, I expected it) to generate that line randomly in attract mode. (Like f.i. Star Wars starts to play some music randomly, or maybe timed I don't know/care).

I was pretty surprised that it only did it after the last credit was gone...


Someone asked if the ZZPU was a complete replacement for the Berzerk hardware. (So they could hook it up to a Jamma cab with an adapter).

No. Berzerk/Frenzy hardware consists of a load of PCB's. The ZZPU is "just" a replacement for the ZPU (Main/central) board.
The reason is that this board is mostly dead because of battery leakage.

Getting ALL the hardware on one board is near impossible, especially the voice hardware would be a problem I guess.

Something I wonder (Chris ?): is the power supply lead long enough to reach the now much lower pins on the ZZPU ?

Oh man, I don't have an existing Berzerk setup. I though this was an all-in-one board.
Was hoping to just reconfigure the Stern cab I have.
 
I hope to test the last of the last batch this weekend, and maybe get some out by Christmas to defray some of the cost of the next run of boards... heh
 
Did anything ever come of this? I'd love to get a board now that I have a Berzerk.

Did he ever start shipping them?

Thanks,
Malice
 
I got one. I've yet to install it. Mark, you make a good product, but your packing leaves something to be desired. I am glad you made these though.. very nice board.
