Title: Galaxian ROMS
Post by: sfrascella on February 12, 2007, 05:25:08 pm

Is there anybody out there that can burn a new set of ROMs for a Galaxian machine? The chips on mine have several broken pins. Which leads to my next question, can you get the broken pins out of the sockets or should I just get new sockets and solder them in?

Thanks

There is a guy on RGVAC that has a chip burner. I had him burn me some Super Mario Brothers chips for $5 a chip. Just put your request there and someone there will hook you up.

This is one of the *few* situations where a ROM request is okay.  He has an original board and is looking for replacement parts.

http://www.hobbyroms.com is one such place to get replacements.  I've never heard anything bad about them.

Yeah...huge difference between "MAME" roms and "REAL" roms used for repair or restorative purpases .  ;)

Check out Hobbyroms as Peale mentioned, never heard anything negative about them.
