Which dot matrix displays fit WPC games

Williams always used 128x32 displays. A 128x32 display from Gottlieb, Sega, Data East or Stern works in any WPC dot matrix game and the reverse; leave off the extra controller board those makers bolt to the back. Some display brands need 12 V and others don't, and a 12 V type may fail to run where a non-12 V type works.

Systems

• WPC Dot Matrix
• WPC Fliptronics
• WPC DCS
• WPC-Security (WPC-S)
