Love this for Galaga
Excellent kit for Galaga
Read all the reviews. Decided to order. Receive a confirmation immediately and then a tracking number the next day! Nice!
Very happy with this kit. Followed the easy to use install guide and was up and running quick!
Now I'm able to save scores when it's turned off and back on. I don't have to open the coin door anymore and "flick the coin up switch" because the kids stole my quarters. ?
Appreciate the fast and professional services from Highscoresaves.com, highly recommended to all!
Amazing save kit
This save kit for Galaga is amazing! Love all the options plus the score saver when turned off.

What's the difference between online and offline versions?
This page has some great info about online and offline kits! Also has some great tips on utilizing all the options that our kits provide.
Learn moreHi, do you have an installation instruction for the nebulous bee bootleg pcb?
Should be in the pdf install guide
I know at least one of these types of boards do, but not sure about this one. I would like to use this on my Gallag PCB.
Yes it can. See Install Guide tab for Galag clone install. Should plug right in the z80 socket!
How do you get to the main menu to change the settings?
How do I get to the menu settings?
With the power off on your game. Press and hold P1 while you turn the game on. Release P1 button when the screen tells you to. You are now in the main menu settings. This is a feature built into your kits so the menu settings are not accessible to your guests or family. Now, having said that, you need to enable this feature in the menu settings, or, disable if you want your kit to give you approximately 5 seconds every time you turn on your game.
Learn moreIs the free play optional? I plan on using this for high score saves only because the machine is at a bar
As with all of my kits, you can toggle free play on or off in the settings...so, you can still use coins if you like!
I see there are multiple high score save kits for the same game. What's the difference? Which one should I choose?
Great Question!
While all of the high score save kits save scores, have an on screen menu for difficulty settings and other features like attract sounds (Please see the description under each kit for full details)
There are usually 2 or 3 main types -
High Score Save kit - This is a great option for anyone wanting to save scores and have free play option on their game with some other cool options! Again, please see the product description page for each kit you are looking at.
Online High Score Save kit - This is next level stuff! You can now save your scores locally on your machine and upload your scores to the Global High Score Save web page! (you even get a customized web site that will have all your games on the page) Here is a link to the Global High Score page - http://arcadehighscores.com/
Information uploaded is not just your initials and score, but also uploads the day, time, difficulty levels, how many guys used, players name, city and country you are in and the name of your arcade!
Please remember, you need to have internet access and your high score save kit connected to it. As of right now, there are CAT5 modules to plug in or there are WiFi modules available for select high score save kits. This information is on the online high score save description page. Click the LEARN MORE button below for more details!
Braze High Score Save kit - The Braze high score save kits give you features listed under each product and are not capable of uploading scores online.
Hope this helps answer your question!
Learn moreI want to switch between normal and rapid-fire bullets. How do I do that?
This is standard for every Multi kit we sell. You will press and hold Player 1 while the game is on fo approximately 4 seconds, the game will "freeze" then you release the button and the game menu will appear.
