Is the pcb the same as a Punch-Out pcb with different ROMs? Or was it completely different?

I tried finding a pic of the SPO board online, but didn't see any. I know the ROMs Have CHS on them rather than the CHP that PO have. But other than that, I don't know if the boards are different.

I have 4 or 5 PO boardsets (I'm pretty sure) to test, and was wondering if any could be converted easily...
 
rom swap + security pcb i believe.

I'm 99% sure you're correct. My son *really* wants to play Super Punch-Out! and I looked into it thinking it may just be a ROM switch but it wasn't.

I'm hoping that PO multi-game is getting close to release... we'd take it even if it wasn't 100% spot on. :D
 
The PO and SPO are the same. As stated above, there is a daughter card that was part of the conversion (for security) and roms.

This pcb is also used for Arm Wrestling.

No easy answer in converting unless you happen to have a security card. Not too common to see for sale by themselves.
 
Okay, thanks guys. I just wanted to see if I needed to doublecheck they were ALL Punch-Out! boardsets or whether I should look closer to see if any were SPO (or Arm Wrestling, I guess)...
