Help with "Jackson" needed !!
« on: May 05, 2006, 04:01:04 am »
Hi.

I bought a stock of PCB some weeks ago. Included was a PCB with "Jackson" written on the adapter. I didn't know what it could be and didn't match to the pictures of "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker".

Last week there was an auction in german Ebay. A Taito Space Chaser Cab with a game looking like Zaxxon.....but the title screen showed "Jackson".....aaaaah....there we are :)

I searched the net for the Jackson pinout....nothing found. So I took the Zaxxon pinout and it seems to match, although there are some little differences.....nothing unusual for a bootleg.

But I don't get a picture....and of course no sound.

I attach a picture of the pcb.....can someone tell me if it is complete? There are no empty sockets but maybe there are cables missing....for example between the two black connectors  ???

Does someone have a picture of a working Jackson PCB?

Please help !!

Great !!!  :)  :)  :)

Is the pinout the same as the Zaxxon-pinout?

There are two black connectors on the left side of the pcbs...I gues there is the cable missing....but we will see.

Thanks a lot !!!
