We stumbled across yet another ancient bootleg of Galaga with 36 pins.
We checked on the Internet and on Wiretap, and found nothing on a 36 pin
version, so we sat down and decided to figure out exactly what the pinouts
and dipswitch settings were. Here they are, I hope other people will find
a use for these pinouts on the rare 36 pin version.

NOTE: There are obviously a few things missing here. If you find the
Cocktail table pin let me know. There is probably a 2P Joystick
also, but in the Upright mode, you just take turns with the same
joystick, so I am unsure of what it would be.

We hope this will help other people who have maybe found another one like
this. Like I said, we have never seen or heard of one like it until now...
