I think it is the same pinout of my Taito Alca Meteor (Moon Cresta clone)pcb
Your pcb is RL070002  RLN00001 look here for your pcb
http://www.coinop.org/kb_dl.aspx/KB/FAQs/LIST-Taito%20Boards.html
Look at your connector you see gnd +12 +5 -5
I really like to see it working  :)

you have the pins for the power
Power it up and
try pin 18 for video signal

Is it a color game ?
Do you have a monitor with a composite video input ?
Power the pcb up with only the pins gnd ,5volt , -5volt (not 12 volt it is mostly for audio amp)
Check with the composite input on your monitor/tv for video signals on the pins
If you have a scope check for video signals on the pins

I have to find some time to make an adapter first. :ghost:

Made a real ugly 'minimal" adapter for this one and fired it up without any hope. :-\

For first sight, I thought it is a graphic issue, but maybe it is some japanese text???

Next step, hook up the sound, controls and coin up. ;)

Guys, I need some input. :D
Probably a noob question, but it is better to be sure.
There are 2 "sound gnd" pins on this pcb, does it mean that I have to connect both to the ground on the jamma edge connector?
I'm asking, cause I never saw sound ground option in other pinouts. :oops:

Hooked up the rest of the pins, result below. :D (it is not too loud, please turn up the volume)
The gameplay is something like Dodgem, Head On or Space Chaser, but there is no maze, just wild animals like snakes and lions. ;)
