Does Pengo use a 4 way Wico joystick with a 4" red balltop, is that the official joystick?

Comment by Orrimarrko on April 8, 2010 at 5:47pm: I believe the Popcorn version is the original version when the game first came out in the arcades. In fact, it's the only one that I've ever played.

Comment by Bill Jr. on April 8, 2010 at 5:45pm: I'm 99% sure it isn't a bootleg. Jeff would know for sure.

Comment by "Trickman" Terry on April 8, 2010 at 5:44pm: Yep, I read about the differences before I installed the board on my machine. However, I really wanted to know if Sega released two versions of the arcade game or not, and if not, is Popcorn Pengo a bootleg?

Comment by Bill Jr. on April 8, 2010 at 3:52pm: Popcorn is the standard / easier version (only the first few levels)... Alternate Pengo starts out more aggressive

Here are the differences.

Just a rom swap I believe.

Comment by "Trickman" Terry on April 8, 2010 at 3:48pm: Okay, so here's another question. (I swear) I remember hearing the "Popcorn" music version of Pengo when I played it in the arcade back in the day. But I've only seen original machines with the "Alternate" song and faster snobees as the default CPU, and that's what mine is. I've also heard that the Popcorn version is a hack, and not original. True or false? Did Sega ship two versions? Does anyone know the real deal?

Comment by Bill Jr. on April 8, 2010 at 3:38pm: TG will not accept any high scores with enhancement kits with the exception of "D2K" (But not for Donkey Kong).

Wow, look at all this activity on the Pengo group!

Comment by Jeff Rothe on April 8, 2010 at 3:29pm: They don't. I asked a long time ago.

Comment by paladin-ng on April 8, 2010 at 3:21pm: I own the JROK pack. (though I don't have a pengo upright.. just a few motherboards and a JROK pack... for the day I get an upright ;)
for now I just play on MAME. don't know about TG and whether they accept the pack..

Comment by Orrimarrko on April 8, 2010 at 3:20pm: I would love a super sweet Pengo cab with the JROK enhancement pack! ;)

Comment by "Trickman" Terry on April 8, 2010 at 3:18pm: I'd like to know who also owns (besides me) the JROK Pengo enhancement pack. And does TG accept scores with that pack, or are they forfeited?
