Review with rating of 5 out of 5 stars
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.
Level up with these!

Z80 8-Bit Microprocessor (40-Pin CPU) The Z80 is a classic 8-bit microprocessor widely used in arcade machines from the late 1970s through the 1980s. This processor served as the main CPU in many arcade PCBs, executing game code, processing player inputs, and coordinating communication with memory, sound hardware, and video circuitry. The Z80 became one of the most popular processors in arcade hardware due to its reliability and expanded instruction set compared to earlier CPUs. Because of its widespread use, the Z80 is commonly found in a variety of classic arcade games and remains an essential component when repairing or restoring vintage arcade boards. This processor uses a standard 40-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) and installs directly into a compatible socket on the arcade PCB. Replacing a faulty CPU can often resolve boot failures, lockups, or other operational issues in aging arcade hardware. Key Features Z80 8-bit microprocessor Standard 40-pin DIP package Common CPU used in many classic arcade PCBs Handles core game logic, timing, and system control Ideal for arcade PCB troubleshooting, repair, and restoration Used In Arcade Games Such As Donkey Kong Galaga Donkey Kong Jr. Frogger Galaxian Dig Dug Xevious …and many other classic arcade titles Installation Notes Installs into a standard 40-pin DIP socket on compatible arcade PCBs Ensure correct notch orientation when installing the CPU Recommended for technicians performing arcade board repair or restoration *Manufacturer brands or markings may vary.
