raysco Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi All, I have recently picked up an original Nintendo Space Fever Cocktail cab, the game switches on but the graphics are shot to hell, on inspecting the board I found a lot of corrosion on one of the eproms with some of the legs broken off and stuck in the socket and was hoping that someone on here might be able to help me repair the board. I suppose my first question is :- Can I get a replacement? The identifiers on the chip are as follows, pictures also attached, F1T on a label TMS 2708JL MBA7849 The socket may or may not be recoverable , else it could be replaced. My second question is, is it worth trying to recover?

Nintendos are easy to solder, I have a Space fever, to compare to if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysco Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 Thanks Dez, Just need info on the eprom..... The socket looks ok under a magnifying glass, but also looks easy enough to replace. I will try to remove the broken off legs tonight and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
