Freedom and Night Rider used tiny 512-byte ROMs at U1 and U2
The first two Bally games used 512-byte 74S474 (or 7461) chips in sockets U1 and U2, plus a 2K 9316 or 2716 in U6. They can be run from a 2716 at U1 plus a 2716 at U6, or (tested by the author) from 2732s at U2 and U6 on a -17 or -35 board converted for 2732s.
