Great multigame upgrade for Gyruss fans
I installed the Gyruss Multigame Kit in my original PCB, and it has been fantastic. The installation instructions were clear, everything fit perfectly, and the kit started working on the first power-up. Having multiple game options on the original hardware adds a lot of variety, and the high score save feature is something I didn't realize I was missing until now.
The build quality is excellent, there were no permanent modifications required, and the games play exactly as they should. Shipping was fast, the packaging was secure, and customer support was responsive when I had a compatibility question before ordering. If you own a Gyruss cabinet and want to expand its capabilities while preserving the original hardware, this multigame kit is an outstanding upgrade. Highly recommended!

Great kit with two awesome, trippy circular games. Oh, and also Pooyan. Complex to install.
This kit was kind of daunting to install at first but it powered up fine the first time for me. It helped that I just upgraded my soldering iron and solder sucker -- recommend a powered one with a vacuum since you'll be removing like 5 ICs and replacing with sockets. I also re-used the 40-pin Z80 that I pulled from the main board but its pins were a little rough after coming out. This is the first HSS kit I've done where the CPU wasn't already socketed and from now on I think I'll add a new CPU to the order for peace of mind.
The magnet with game-change instructions is cute & sticks right to the control panel. You want this
The kit menus are getting more sophisticated too! This one has animations & is totally badass. Being able to play Time Pilot once again with the proper joystick is well worth the price. Thanks!

Three awesome games
I bought this for time Pilot and Gyruss but I play Pooyan just as much. Three great games on one kit. Oh...get the wifi version.
