Pac-Man Multigame Compatibility & Requirements

Compatible PCB: Documented compatible original Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and Pac-Man Plus arcade PCBs
Processor: Z80
Processor Location: Documented 40-pin Z80 socket
Soldering: Not required when the Z80 location already has a compatible socket
Program ROM Requirement: Remove the designated original program ROMs as directed by the installation guide

Pac-Man Multi Game

This is an awesome kit for your Pac-Man pcb. Multiple games including the not so often seen Ms Pac-Man Plus. Along with separate high score save and free play options there is the ability to choose the fast version of the PAC games in the menu. Pengo is a nice bonus game.
