I acquired a working Ms. Pac-Man this weekend. Spent some time replacing the usual failure points. I have a strange hack on my PCB. I am hoping for help identifying and advice on removal strategies.
Brief description and photos are here.
A microswitch was attach to pin 2 of the chip at C9 and pin 11 (of 14) of the chip at C8. Pin 11 was lifted out of the socket.
A third wire is attache to the microswitch but not attached to the PCB or ground.
Does this sound like a "worthy upgrade" or a bad hack that needs repaired?
