Game Details
You control a lunar landing vehicle that is dropped from its mothership and must land on one of the platforms at the bottom of the screen while avoiding the objects in its path. Once the craft has safely landed, it collects a stranded astronaut from the surface, then it must then travel back up to the ship, shooting back at the spaceships in its way.
The game is black and white with different zones of colors (noticeable when the lunar craft moves around the screen and changes color). Up to two alternating players can compete.
Black and white with plastic color overlays.

Old Taito 3 board set pinouts
Submitted by John Keay
These pinouts are not 100% complete, but there is enough info for an upright JAMMA conversion. There is an upright/cocktail pin somewhere and 2P left/right/fire buttons are still unidentified.
The HALT pin was the one that had me going for a while. I couldn't get the game to run at all outside the cocktail harness until I wired this sucker low. Lunar Rescue ('80) Space Invaders (late '70s) Solder Sound Board Parts ===============

Yet Another List
O-Taito is the Old Taito pinout on wiretap. N-Taito is the New-Taito pinout (Like Elevator Action). Quote by R. Schieve: "Taito.pin will match most for power, ground, monitor, and speaker connections but inputs are usually quite different." DECO/Data East is the Data East pinout. See Ring King.pin or KarateChamp.pin.I AtariV is Black Widow and Gravitar and Space Duel Konami if the Konami pinout. See Konami\Rush'n'Attack.pin.

Identifying Unknown Board Sets Back in 1994, Rick Schieve wrote an article about how to identify unknown boards. This article gives some quick tips on how to figure out what the pinouts are for an unknown PCB. The text is moderately technical so if you're not sure what R
