You really don't see many of these so I'm glad I managed to save mine:

I had this game on my PC in the early 90s. I didn't realize it was an arcade cab too.

That was an interesting write up. I enjoyed seeing how you used the logic analyser in conjunction with the mame debugger. I don't think I'll be attempting a repair that complex any time soon!

Me too, loved it! Also loved Strike Commander

This also made me wish that other modern boardsets had monitor programs with diagnostics accessible via UART access!
