Vs Goonies/Vs Gradius Combination Daughtercard

This brand new product allows you to load both games at the same time on a single side of a Nintendo Vs board! Just flip a switch and press a button and you can switch to play either Vs Goonies or Vs Gradius.

This daughtercard is fully assembled, tested and working prior to shipping. All you have to do is install your existing CPU and PPU into the sockets and then install this onto your main Vs PCB. The pins used on this card are very similar to the ones used in original daughterboards. We opted to use these because they are much more robust than round machine pins and hold up much better when installed and removed from sockets over time.

Once installed on your main board, allow 30 seconds for the game to boot when the daughtercard is installed. To change games, simply flip the toggle switch and then hold the reset button for 2 seconds. The game will reset and the other game will boot. Super simple!

Each daughtercard is $115 shipped within the US. International shipping is additional. We also have a limited supply of Nintendo CPUs (RP2A03) available at the moment for an additional $22 (when purchased with a daughtercard) and will arrive pre-installed on the daughtercard. We do not have a source for PPU’s so you will have to supply that item. Simply tell us which Vs PPU you plan to install and your card will be custom configured based on your selection.

All combination daughtercards will come with a remote-wired toggle switch and push button switch that are easily plugged into the board. However, if you would like a daughtercard configured to only play one game (instead of the combination), we can fulfill those custom requests as well.

This is a Dig Dug control panel that was treated very poorly and converted to an Altered Beast cp. It's still populated. I just have no use for it as I'm deconverting it back to a Dig Dug. Im in Phoenix Arizona. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

I posted a question about where I could find these in another thread. I guess I should look better before asking...
