SPRINT 1 on a color monitor
« on: July 16, 2011, 01:22:23 AM »
I found my SPRINT 1 cabinet without PCB but with a color monitor inside.
An easy restoration because the cabinet was dirty but in general good conditions and I had a PRINT 1 pcb in my collection...
last week luthorkan showed me a SPRINT 2 PCB with a hack in order to modify that game in a color version. I ported that modification on my PCB and this is the result:

If someone is interested in this hack I can post schematics.

regards,
Marco

Nice mod, much better than trying to run it in b/w on a color monitor.
You can change the text in the eprom so it says the right color.
