What board types are supported? Initially supports the Midway black-and-white monitor style boardset (Space Invaders or Space Invaders Deluxe). The set consists of two PCBs in an L-shaped configuration. Will it work in a cocktail cabinet? Yes, if it’s a Midway black-and-white style cocktail (not the color Taito version).

Besides added features (Free Play, diagnostics, high score save), sounds are mapped to the eight available sound lines provided by the SI/SID boardset. SI and SID sound very similar.

Free Play is available for most titles; Galaxy Wars does not support Free Play. Do I need to solder anything? Typically no. However, if your 8080 CPU is not socketed, you’ll need to install a socket on the PCB first.
