Hey guys,

      I just picked up a tron upright cab and am in the middle of restoring said cab. I want to play around with ROM's! I was thinking of picking up another PCB, an taking off the rom chips off that to get them on tron! (Tron is missing one I think). It's a local post of a game called splash or painted lady. Not sure about it but I see lots of ROM chips on the board. 20$, should I do it? Will the rom chips be compatible if I writes we them?

Most games use the same kind of chip. I would go ahead and buy it, just to have more chips. If you want, you would just buy some EPROMS on eBay

as cosmic stated, you can buy programmable chips individually or in a package. do a search for the chip number/model
