CrAzY KoNg PCB Rom Swapping - PLS HELP


davefrank421

Question

Ok guys... I have 2 crazy kong pcb's. :021:

 

#1) Falcon Crazy Kong [part2]

#2) ORCA Crazy Kong with BIG KONG roms

 

Here is my question..:unsure I just bought a eeprom programmer... (:DYAH!:D) should be here in 3days or so!

Well I wanna know if anyone out there has converted ether of these two pcb's into different games buy programming & swapping the roms?

Im sure that my orca was rom swapped to be big kong instead of crazy kong :023:

Like could I take my falcon pcb & rom swap it to pac-gal? crazy kong (not part2), ect... and so on and so on.....

 

With or with out pcb hack (aka jumper wires all over the place)

 

Thanks any help would be amazing!

I doubt you can convert either to a completely different game unless it's one based on Crazy Kong hardware (which Pac-Gal isn't). The Big Kong roms will work on either board though, as I burned a set and have used them on both PCB's (I have both Falcon and 2 different Orca sets). The Orca one should have the same colors as the Falcon one. The one that doesn't (with the ugly colors) has a daughterboard for the Z80 with some other TTL chips on it. If you want to convert the Falcon one to CK part 1, you'll need to to replace the 6 program ROMs (which should be 7-12) with the 5 used in CK part 1 (and leave the socket that contained #12 empty). 13 and 14 are ROMs with the Crazy Climber samples, those stay in the same spot. You'll also need to replace the 3 color PROMs (I think all 3 would need to be replaced, never tried it myself)

dunno if that helps any, but it's a start :D

I did get to thinking though, there's a couple games on boardsets similar to the Orca Crazy Kong one...River Patrol and Silverland, by Orca and Falcon. They both use the same driver in MAME, but I have no idea what it'd take to convert to either one, if it's possible. Or you could buy this one on ebay for $6688 USD :rolleyes
