No, XLR is for power! 
Beginner's mistake though, since I hadn't counted on -5V. Hence the extra wire. Doh!

Should have a Quiz Gakumon coming in soon! Thanks for the information, @twistedsymphony
that probably means that a martial.champions pcb could be converted into a Simpson in a rather easy way.My buddy found a glitched Simpsons for cheap, one of the custom sprite gen chips was bad...He then hot air pulled it, and replaced it with another sprite gen from a (50$) Martial Champions.
Despite having different markings and numbers on the chips, the swap was a total success!
I ended up with a stoopid good deal!

If I wouldn't have all these boards already, I'd give this a try as well. Awesome project to fiddle around with, gj guys
definitely worth a shot if the donor PCB's would be easily available, luckily I got TMNT and Simpsons before the prices exploded, it is just TMNT2 which I still would like to add to my collection...

A trade for you NNC can be discussed

Same goes for your NNC, does it really matter?I know what you paid for it
amazingly I found a working TMNT for $250 shipped on eBay last night.
Ahh...you snagged that up?!

You mean the first one, not Turtles in Time?
yes, I don't need another Turtles in Time since I did the Quiz Gakumon conversion.

Amazing how these prices keep going up, I had to put in a lot of effort to sell it for €150 1-2 years ago if I remember correctly
$250 was cheap... most of them are selling in the $300-$400 range.

Pfffff, well then I guess congrats on the purchase
FWIW, TMNT is way better than TiT (if you compare the arcade to the SNES version) imho, absolutely love TMNT.

I like them both but I prefer TiT.

TIT is the better game, and the arcade is the best version hands down. You have to play all three (arcade, SNES, and Genesis Hyperstone Heist) to get the whole game though.

Ah well, everybody has a different opinion on that one. Graphics are better for the arcade version for sure, but the overall feel/controls just feel better on the SNES, other than that is has the Technodrome level in there
But enough of that, glad you found a PCB which was reasonably priced for current standards

I had a (somewhat tired conversion) 4P Turtles 1 cab I needed to dump earlier this year and it was depressing that (because of the going rate of the PCB), I was only getting like $200 for the cab/monitor :/

No because the PCB layout is nothing alike whatsoever.that probably means that a martial.champions pcb could be converted into a Simpson in a rather easy way.My buddy found a glitched Simpsons for cheap, one of the custom sprite gen chips was bad...He then hot air pulled it, and replaced it with another sprite gen from a (50$) Martial Champions.

The functions of the sprite generator chip just remained the same in between revisions, that's why it works.
