We stumbled across yet another ancient bootleg of Galaga with 36 pins.
We checked on the Internet and on Wiretap, and found nothing on a 36 pin
version, so we sat down and decided to figure out exactly what the pinouts
and dipswitch settings were. Here they are, I hope other people will find
a use for these pinouts on the rare 36 pin version.
