G Net Communication Pcb

[ForestOfDreams]

What games used this for system linking?
Does anyone actually have it or is it vaporware?

It's just for RC de Go.

They pop up every now and then on Mercari and Yahoo Japan for around 3000 JPY each.

First off, the board itself isn't very common to find because of the fact only one known game uses this board (I'm sure some of you will figure out soon). Aside from the fact nobody else mentioned this board, the hardware this board consists of is rather interesting for what Taito developed. The board itself sits on top of the FC pcb.

Specs:

• H8/3062 HD64F3062F CPU; clock not known; has an internal rom yet to be dumped.
• IDT7024 4k x 16 bit dual port ram; most likely shared ram between the G-Net board and communications cpu
• SMSC COM2002ILJP Arcnet controller w/2k x 8 bit ram...

• Hydreigon

Well if anyone has some laying around they don't want I would be interested in 2 and 2 controllers for rc de go.

Interesting it was only used for one game.
