O-Taito is the Old Taito pinout on wiretap. N-Taito is the New-Taito pinout (Like Elevator Action). Quote by R.

Pinouts for Choplifter (also works with Pitfall II and all the Wonderboy games) Typed up by Graham Bisset (22-Aug-1995, graham@aberdeen.wireline.slb.com) Updated by John Goggan (28-Jun-1999, jgoggan@dcg.com) Graham's Note: My original board was not marked as to where 1 started and 22 finished, so hold the board with the edge connector nearest you and the parts on the top. Pin 1 is the furthest to the left. Make the cable at your own risk! Happy rescuing! :-) Parts |
