- 27th April 2009: Smitdogg - Thanks to jmurjr and Ranger_Lennier we have an original Taito Intruder board. It's a clone of Space Laser. I'm not sure if they called it Intruder for different geographic regions or what.

- 0.132u1: Yasuhiro Ogawa added BPROMs for clone Intruder and Samples sound (Invaders).

- 0.146u1: hap added placeholder colormap roms to Space Laser and clones Astro Laser and Space War (Leijac Corporation). Replaced DISCRETE sound with Invaders Samples.

I don't know if the color prom has already been hooked up for Intruder, but I am guessing it has. A board for Taito Space Laser would still need to be found in order to dump the prom and have colors correct for Space Laser.

Logic schematics for Intruder are online in case someone ever does want to tackle of emulating the discrete audio components for audio sounds.

As for emulating the dip switches for Intruder, here is page scan of dips settings page so dips settings can be done for Intruder. I am not sure if they would be the same for Space Laser. They probably are the same.
