Vega is being emulated, at least someone is trying

And that someone is DLF member toms. Here is his blog. Would be nice to see the game one day which should be in my Vega cab.  :)

Toms, maybe Level42 can help you someday with pictures of the topside and wiring side of the CP. He has access to the cab.

Sorry for digging-out this this damn old thread.
I have finally got (two) Vega PCBs and made (one, so far) partially work. Quite weird pcb , inverted colors, unique 22x2 pinout (guessed... ). A lot of faults, broken pins and other crap. Of course board was sold as "working"... Has an old "OK" sticker. So probably that's why...  There's an update on my blog ( link in prev post), including video from attract mode. If someone needs help with vega pcb ( color inverting, pinout.. whatever) - pm me.
Happy new 2012 year :)

Did you ask ?

Sometimes they simply indicate "out of habit".
If they persist there maybe someone in the US willing to forward it to Europe...

GOD I hate it that ebay allows sellers to turn that off !!! Sorry man...then there's only the option if a friend in the US would be willing to buy it for you and then forward....

No you can't. That's the problem.
If you select Contact seller you will get some standard answers and if you say "No this didn't help me", you will get a message that the seller has turned off contacting him.....  :( :( :(

This is the message you get:
We're sorry we couldn't find an answer for you. Unfortunately, this seller is not able to respond to your question. We suggest reviewing the item again to see if your answer is in the seller's listing.

It's the ultimate "box shifters'" dream....I've run into it a couple of times now. I can't believe Ebay allows this....the only "weapon" we have is not buying from these kind of sellers...but hey....if you want something badly......

I bought two pcbs from that seller. Indirectly. So, be carefull .. at least the one (the other is still in the us - so i can't check it yet) was broken.
Easy to repair (just tons of basic ttl) as long as the uncommon (INS8154, DP8350) chips are ok.
