MAMEWorld Forums - The Loony Bin - Chicago Coin's TV Pin Game *edit*

>I just received this board today. It says, "C.D.I. 451-2500 TV PG2" along the top.

Awright. I have all the paperwork (stapled logic schematics as well which is 30 pages of stuff to drive a DICE contributor up the wall. *kidding*) and can confirm it is Chicago Coin's TV Pin Game as flyer shows.

I am not sure of why the number 2 unless it means a 2nd revision pcb?

>Near one of the switches it says, "BELL". There are various jumpers labeled things
>like "GAME" and "BALL" which are price and number of balls.

The jumper wires are for coin credits, score adjustment for free ball or game.
There is a bell/chime audio sound effect. A slide switch, near main connector can disable the bell sound effect.

After comparing Exidy and Chicago Coin flyers, both games seem to have same features so I guess if TV Pin Game is emulated later that will also take care of Exidy TV Pinball too.
Exidy might have licensed this along with Destruction Derby to Chicago Coin and Chicago Coin released the same games, but with a different game titles.

btw: The game probably won't have proms to be dumped, but entire chips on pcb need to be identified to be certain. Even Ramtek had thrown in a surprise with their proms in late 1973 games such as Wipe Out in which Midway licensed from them with their game Leader, and Volley Industries in Montreal had Countdown (licensed clone of Wipe Out) also licensed from Ramtek. And I guess more stuff to package to you later in the mail. :-)
