Can Jail Break be converted to Rushin Attack?

I found Konami Jail Break conversion game nearby and was wondering: Can it
be converted to Rushin Attack or other Konami Classic games? KLOV shows
several "Konami Classic" style games. Is it simply a matter of burning the
new software on the hard drive?

No hard drive in Rushin' Attack. I'm sure you mean EPROMs. Probably just
as easy to find a whole board.

Well that answers that question then, thanks. I was assuming that KLOV had
the correct info when it said Jail Break and Rushin Attack both used the
Konami Classic hardware. Sounds like the differences would prevent a
conversion then.

It's the Konami Classic *PINOUT*

There's 6+ years worth of games on different hardware that use the konami pinout.
hell, there's even a konami qbert!

That said, Jailbreak and Rush'n Attack are *very* similar hardware-wise,
but it's not just a romswap. I think I've got a spare RnA though, if you're
interested.

Mark, why not just sell him the hard drive of it?
