I've had three customers ask me about a cocktail table this week. Hurry Up !
I hope there is a run of CRT models. There's no LCD that looks half as good.
Multigame - I have a couple of converted Galaxian boards which are "multigame" - Galaxian, Moon Cresta and UFO. But they are only changed by the operator switching the game off and flicking a switch. The first "muliboard" where the player could select was Ghost Muncher / Uniwars. I wonder if Mike remembers those very cool cabinets !
I sure do - we used to make the conversions in Brisbane for many of the early 2 and 3 game "multiboards" - the very first one I remember doing was Scramble but I forget what it converted to ???? We used to double up the ROMs and wire a switch to the chip select pins - very bodgy but it worked very well.
CRTs are still a "definate maybe" but not guaranteed at this point. If I do make some they are likely to be 14/15" ???
Scramble board was a generic hardware for Super Cobra and Amigo. Not a muligame, but it was easy to create a daughterboard and hook up the Chip Select lines.
