LATEST UPDATES - PINITECH SWITCH MATRIX DATABASE Welcome! This page is just to keep track of missing games in the switch database & also offers some notes on recent updates made to the database. The Switch Matrix Database is for use with the 64 Switch Matrix Tester (a diagnostic tool for troubleshooting switch matrix issues on a pinball machine) -- more info located @ http://www.pinitech.com/products/64switch_tester.php Most of the major manufacturers from Williams WPC era of pinball machines (mid-90s) on back have been entered into the Switch Matrix Database, but we are missing switch info for a few games (listed below). If you have any switch matrix info for any of the missing games below & can send a list of the switch numbers and names for any of these games, please contact us! Your help in completing the database is appreciated! *** CURRENT LIST OF GAMES WE'RE MISSING SWITCH INFO FOR *** -- BALLY 133 --- Big Bat -- GOTTLIEB SYS 3 -- Carribean Cruise Strikes n' Spares -- SEGA/STERN WHITESTAR -- NFL Sharkey's Shootout Striker Xtreme -- STERN S.A.M. -- 24 Avatar Big Buck Hunter Pro CSI Iron Man NBA -- WILLIAMS WPC -- Ticket Tac Toe --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MANUFACTURERS/BOARDSETS NOT YET ENTERED The list below are of solid state game manufacturers/boardsets that have not yet been entered into the database. Some of these may not be compatible with the 64 Switch Matrix Tester or have "unknown compatibility" at this time. These are not high on the priority list since there hasn't been huge demand from the community, but if you've tested the 64 Switch Matrix Tester with any of these we'd love to hear from you! OLDER: -Allied Leisure / Fascination -Alvin G. -Atari -Gameplan Gen 1/2 -Zaccaria Gen 2 NEWER: -Capcom -Stern SPIKE -Jersey Jack -Boutique (Heighway Pinball, Spooky Pinball, etc) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *** LATEST STATUS OF SWITCH DATABASE *** 11/06/2016 Many Stern S.A.M. games have now been added to the database. Missing switch matrix charts for a few (listed above), please email if you have them. 02/10/2016 Zaccaria Gen 1 games were added to the database, these are unverified since we do not have Zaccaria games to test with. The Zaccaria MPUs appear to have used several different styles of connectors (including what appear to be regulator 2.54mm headers). We may eventually have wiring instructions/options available, but will need to verify what the connections look like at the MPU. 11/8/2015 A "print view" link has been added (link at the bottom of the switch matrix charts). This opens a new window, with website headers removed for easier printing of the charts or less clutter when viewing on mobile devices. 11/5/2015 All Whitestar games that had manuals available are now in the database. Database is now up to 362 games. This completes entry for manufacturers that Pinitech offers wire harness options for (except the missing games as noted above). Stern S.A.M. games will be next, but will be lower priority. 11/2/2015 Database is up to 345 games! Currently working through Sega Whitestar games. Updated list with a few Whitestar games that do not have manuals on IPDB. 09/13/2015 Added some more of the missing games & updated list of missing games (above). Thank you to those that have contributed switch info! 09/3/2015 Slight optimization done to database tables to improve page load time dramatically. 09/2/2015 Major manufacturers from the 1990s on back have been entered into the database. Zaccaria games have not yet been entered, but may be part of a future update as long as the switch setup is compatible with the 64 Switch Matrix Tester. At this time there are no plans to add Atari, Game Plan or Playmatic solid state game switch info, but it's likely most of those systems are compatible with the tester. Capcom and Williams Pinball 2000 games may be added at some point in the future. The next major undertaking will be getting all of the Sega/Stern Whitestar games added to the database since wire harness options are available for Whitestar. After this, Stern S.A.M. games may be entered over time as well -- the database is setup to handle Stern S.A.M. games, producing 2x switch matrix charts since Stern S.A.M. supports more than 64x switches (like Gottlieb System 3). Newer systems (Stern SPIKE, Jersey Jack, Spooky Pinball, etc) may also be incorporated over time, however there has been limited interest/requests for wire harnesses or switch info for the newer systems -- so the priority will be the older manufacturers for right now.
