Hey there,
Today I came for your advice on this board that was basically given to me, it works and all and it's fun as heck to have a working Ms. Pacman clone at home (even more since I don't have many boards) but it came to my eyes that the damned Ms. Pacman is actually, purple??

The whites are displaying correctly and all the other colors aswell, just the girl is purple instead of yellow.

This is the board:

Ain't a normal day without my bootleg adventures...

Looking forward for your feedback and advice.

Thanks a lot!

Edit1: Seems like this bootleg board has it's green and blue outputs changed, where it should output blue, it outputs green (https://www.recreativas.org/ms-pacman-cocamatic-181-cocamatic if you can read spanish).
Would this be something easy to change?

I got that exact same bootleg in a lot and indeed colours are inverted. Not caring much about bootlegs I simply cut the traces close to the JAMMA edge (OG board isn't JAMMA) and ran a couple of wires to fix it.

Today actually Ms Pacman is yellow but the reds are green and I didn't do anything, what the heck? :D How did you do to fix it?
