Game Summary

a Nintendo conversion kit - simulated pool / billiards

Hardware Platform: CVS Hardware

Game Details

Seems to be a ROM swap with Donkey Kong on the two board version of Donkey Kong. There is also a daughter board plugged into 7c on the top board in place of the Z80A that's normally there.

As for controls - at this point we're assuming it's joystick based, and likewise that the pin outs are identical to Donkey Kong.
