I got a cocktail pinball!
« on: January 19, 2020, 12:03:38 AM »
This is my current project, a friend of mine has had it for years and I finally managed to buy it!
MPU board is dead but I’ll work it out. Can’t want to play it!

I remember playing on of these a while ago. Was a cool game to play, even for that format.

I can’t wait to play it. Finding a working MPU board is proving difficult and then some however.

I fixed a "Take 5" on a service call & you wouldn't believe where it was, Upstairs at the Daily Planet Brothel. Most memorable service call ever.. :D Would love one in my collection. Let me know if you ever want to move it on.

Hahaha that’s amazing!

I’m at a standstill with it right now, my MPU board is bad and testing the RRIOTs requires a good board to swap with, I don’t have access to one.

Repairing mine is proving extremely difficult.. I may have an answer this week as to which chips are bad on it but finding replacements will be challenging.
