Post by: mastiffgold on February 21, 2024, 04:13:51 PM

I am looking for a list of parts needed to convert a wms550 to BB1 . I found a post on the forum from several years ago of someone converting a wms550 to bb1 he has pictures of the parts but no part numbers. Years ago I purchased a wms 550 that had been converted to bb1 so i know its possible. please help if anyone knows the part numbers i need. I have a wms550 money to burn cabinet and it is running life of luxury now . i woldlike to upgrade to bb1 to play money to burn and popssibly other games. Any help is appreciated.

All you need is a NXT board and you can play about 95% of the BB1 games. The board slides into the cage and you remove the two existing boards. Here is a link to the board, however I've seen them far cheaper in the past.

you will also require an aux power harness that plugs into the 6 pin molex plug on the CPUNXT board.  Without it the game will reboot at random if your power supply is a bit on the weak side on the +12v rail.

Yes, I made my own, but my board will run fine without it.
