Adapter to plug Asteroids Deluxe board into Asteroids harness
Inspired from the recent posting on converting a Gravitar/Black Widow to a Tempest/Major Havoc, I've decided to document a similar conversion to and from Asteroids Deluxe. This is a simpler conversion than the aforementioned Tempest hackery, but you should still read everything first and be sure you understand what you're doing before proceeding. Although I can't guarantee 24-hour delivery, I'll also try to respond to any questions you may have...
Credit goes to Rick Schieve and Steve Ozdemir for letting

The connector from the DL CPU to the disk player is composed of a ribbon
cable, a 24-pin DIP ribbon connector, and a 24-pin Centronics ribbon
connector. The #1 wire of the ribbon cable may go to the #1 pin of the
centronics connector, but then must connect to the #12 pin on the 24-
pin DIP connector. Yes, surprise me, but the cable is reversed.

FAQ: Deducing Switch settings
Submitted by John Keay
How can I find out the switch settings for game X? 1) Look in the cabinet. Many games have lists of switch settings in the cabinet, or on scruffy bits of coffee stained paper thrown in the bottom of the cab. 2) Look on wiretap.spies.com / coinop.org The directory /pub/game_archive/switchSettings has lots of useful switch settings. http://coinop.org/ has a nice searchable index. 3) Figure them out from scratch. This is the fun part. How can you do this without i

Smash TV strategy guide
Submitted by Unknown
Don't try to conserve ammo. Your shots should be efficient and kill as much as possible, and you won't have time to think about conserving shots (esp. in the latter stages). The pattern of moves you should follow at the end of each board to reach the easiest boards is:
Level 1: right, up; and then you have no choices.
Level 2: up, right; and then again, no choices.
Level 3: right, right, down; and then you have no choices.
Following these moves should enable you to

POWER SUPPLY REPAIR
Copyright November, 1994 by Randy Fromm We live in a "disposable society." Disposable razors, lighters, pens and a myriad of other items are a part of our daily life. Many operators consider power supplies to be disposable as well. Their rumored inability to be repaired and relatively low cost create the impression of disposability. This is not the case, however. I repair lots of power supplies and it's really quite easy and practical. In fact, a repaired supply may end up having a longer l

Nintendo Video Inversion
By Joel Rosenzweig

Much technical information provided by Dick Millikan.
Version 1.0, 1/21/98
This document describes how to invert the video from Nintendo's Donkey
Kong Jr. It includes enough hints to help you convert Donkey Kong and
Mario Brothers, but the procedures are slightly different for these
boards, and I haven't personally tested it on them.
There used to be two ways to invert the video of a Nintendo game. Now
there are three! I feel this
