I've got a stray Super Cobra PCB sitting around that's complete minus that stupid Konami daughterboard, I'm not a big enough fan of the game to chase one down and if I did I might as well get another set, and my attempts to convert it to Speed Coin have failed.

So my question is, what games can this board be converted to aside from Super Cobra? I've heard there are a few for which all I need to do is replace the daughterboard cable's socket with a Z80 processor and reprogram the EPROMs, but what they are I don't know.

P.S.
If by chance someone here has an actual Speed Coin board I'd love to know the EPROM placement and game some PCB pics.

Wasn't Frogger hacked to work on that hardware? Seems like somebody made a list some years ago that showed games that work on that or Scramble hardware.

BTW, I may have some Super Cobra and/or Scramble boards available if you want them (cheap + shipping).

Thanks, not really interested in any Super Cobras but I might get back to you on a Scramble or two.

Bump - still looking for ideas.
 
Really??? Super Cobra is a two boardset and the CPU and sound chip are on the smaller of the two boards (top board). How does it replace all of that hardware? I must be missing something here...

*Update*
I just read your manual and there it was.... Excellent!

The site says Scramble, but I assume it also works for Super Cobra as you suggested in your post above?
