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.

"fea-ture") in same.
It seems that the addressee line (TO: ...) is parsed
independently of file handling. Mail looks at each item in

Future Spy Pinouts
Note: this is adapted from David Holcomb's very thorough Zaxxon pinouts
file. See game_archive/boardPinots/Zaxxon.pin on wiretap.spies.com
for more info.
Future Spy belongs to the small Zaxxon family of boards (Zaxxon, Super
Zaxxon, and Future Spy) that all run off of the same hardware. Although
Super Zaxxon requires a small extra soundboard, Future Spy _appears_ to
be nothing more than a straight ROM swap away from an original Zaxxon
board.
There are only 2 small differences between

Do bear in mind that this game runs on a Black + White

before you can convert it to output to JAMMA ;)

Early Atari documentation list
Submitted by Gregg Woodcock (woodcock@bnr.ca)
Here is a pretty complete list of documentation for Atari's early arcade video games. Note that "TM" stands for "Technical Manual" and "DP" stands for "Drawing Package [supplement]" which was later renamed to "SP" which stands for "Supplement Package". I am not sure what "CO" stands for but the "C" could be for "Correction" because most of the CO documents were errata or addendums to the manuals. In addition, most Atari games had "ST" documents which w

Defender Cheats and Strategy
Submitted by Unknown
When you get your last official guy before 1,000,000, every time you score, you'll get an extra man.
The trick we used was to win 100+ ships between 990,000 and 1,000,000, thus fooling the game based on where score rolls over rather than where ships roll over. The version where you win 100+ ships has been tested, the version where you win 256+ ships never was because:
a. For every point scored in Defender from 990,000 to 999,975 you will win one extra ship and smart b

Troubleshooting your Tempest Machine, by Gregg Woodcock

This is a file I have put together which should get you started on
repairing your non-working Atari Tempest game. It lists all the
problems I have seen and lots of information from the various manuals.
Monitor failures are much more common than game board failures (in fact,
I find the game boards to be fairly robust) and that topic is so lengthy
that it is covered in another

Memory map for Bally/Midway MCRII system (Tron)
I know of the following games that run on MCR/II systems: TRON (MCR/II) TWO TIGERS (MCR/II) SATAN'S HOLLOW (MCR/II) DOMINO MAN (MCR/II) WACKO (MCR/II) JOURNEY (MCR/II with MCR/III sprite board) I've been told that these are MCR games, too: KICKMAN (MCR/I) SOLARFOX (MCR/I) and I belive that there are others. The game system (MCR/II) consists of three boards: * the audio board (super sound I/O) - Z80 + 2 AY-3-8910 * the cpu board - Z80 and background/tile generation

The original posting of this pinout had the parts side and solder side
reversed. This version of the pinout fixes that error and discusses how
to change to composite sync from positive to negative JAMMA compatible.
Thanks to Rick Schieve for pointing this out. The schematic that shows
the settings for this switch (SW4) is in the Zaxxon manual, drawing
