SPACE CYCLONE

Hey guys,
I've asked for information about this game before, but to no avail.
Here's another gentle attempt:

I own a Space Cyclone cocktail. It's a rare game from Taito (1980).
It's not even emulated, so far as I can tell. Does anyone else actually
own this game, or ever even heard of it?

I'd really like to find out the dip switch positions and pinout.
Especially the pinout. If I could get my hands on a scan of the
art/instruction cards, I probably fall over in a dead faint. Seriously,
I'll pay good money for scans.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, all.

Good suggestion, but the conversion class is listed as "unique" so I'm
a little hesitant to start assuming the pinout is the same. I guess
I'll have to figure it out the hard way.

Anyone else got any ideas?

Thanks for the comment, Joe. Actually, I have tried playing with the
dips a bit, but many don't seem to do anything. I'll keep playing, as
per your suggestion and see what I can see....

thats on Taito Safari hardware so I guess the dips/pinouts should be
similar.

Hi Corey,

Obviously it would be easier with documentation, but since it's only dip
switches, I wouldn't be too afraid of trying different combinations. It's
not like your messing with the edge connector guessing which pin to send the
+12 as opposed to the -5 to. I.e., you can't hurt anything just by dabbling
with the dips.
