Missile under license…
10 April 2014
Yes, this is a Missile Command by… Sega. Quite rare, made probably for Japanese market. I’ve to say I found it not in so bad conditions:
- 5 buttons were not original
- coin plate rusted
- coin door missing
- feet dirty/rusted
- CPs dirty/rusted
Coin door
10 April 2014
First of all I remade the coin door using wood and vinyl.
Buttons

These are the buttons I was looking for…
Coins plate
10 April 2014
Coins plate had some rust. I printed a new overlay replacing the old paint (probably this plate had been repainted yet from blue to black)
Feet
10 April 2014
Usual treatment for feet: cleaning, de-rusting and special painting.
PCB
10 April 2014
This is the PCB. Nothing special, a typical Atari Missile Command board
Inside

This is what you can see inside the cocktail.
Yet another cocktail ready

Troubleshooting
10 April 2014
On Dec 14th, 2013 graphics became corrupted. I couldn’t understand exactly the error because all characters were corrupted. RAMs were ok so probably I had something wrong in ROMs circuit. I have another bootleg PCB but swapping all ROMs nothing changed. I decided to analyze the circuit dedicated to the ROMs selection.
In the end I found a faulty 74139 in P2.
