Well, revision 2.0 also does not support 2P cabinets. The 'skip powerup test' switch is not working in that one either.

Only in 3.01 does it skip the self test, and support 2 players.

1.0 and 2.0 should really have those dips removed if we're being perfectionists.

The only thing i can imagine is that upgrade kits contained propaganda to make sure operators upgrade the game asap. (i.e. "upgrade now to ensure increased revenue")

Also i just noticed the pics on-line of the sound board have L2 labels as well, need to check the board if they have L1 labels.. (The roms on those boards do not get tested by the game at boot.)

Random pic


There appears to be a number of initials in this game as well that have no special char, but some progress in the game is stored on the profiles. (They defeated a number of teams.)

Edit: At least sound board U13 has L1 on the sticker on the pcb i have here
