Help with Conversion Class: Namco Galaga

[tevans333]

I've got a noob question. I have just begun restoring a Dig Dug cab and want to keep it original. It is listed on KLOV as Conversion Class: Namco Galaga. Does this mean that I can simply put any pcb from this conversion class into my cab and play it? If so, is there a list anywhere that tells which games are from which class? I don't seem to be able to search KLOV in this manner and would love to pick up other PCBs to interchange while keeping my cab original.

No.
I think their "conversion class" just refers the hardware specs, not board compatibility (though I could be wrong).

Galaga was licensed from Namco, by Midway for North America, while Dig Dug was licensed by Atari. Those companies designed their machines differently. And then if you're from europe or elsewhere, there's other manufacturers involved too.

So... No, not likely.

(but someone more knowledgable should chime in)
