Do LEDs ghost in WPC-95 games?

Do LEDs ghost in WPC-95 inserts like they do in the earlier titles? If so, will the WPC LED patch work? I know I can buy ghost busters but it is cheaper to apply a patch, particularly since I need to upgrade the game ROM anyway.
Thanks,
Dan

Not really that I've seen and the patch should work ok. Easy to test. Put in one bulb and run the row and column tests and see if the one lamp is slightly on when it should be off.

Cool, thanks. This is my first WPC-95 so I am not up on all the intricacies.

I don't know about the patch, but LEDs do ghost in WPC-95 games. Depends on the title and quality of the LEDs.

I have regular PBL LED's installed in two WPC95's with the latest ROM's with no ghosting effects.

Again, no point in arguing it. Put one led in any controlled lamp and run the lamp row and col tests and see for yourself.

Using PBLs in MM, MB and AFM and no ghosting

The patch you speak of was extracted from later games. Mid WPC-S games have it from the factory in many cases - so you most likely won't be able to apply it to any WPC-95 games.

Mine was built in the 97 run so it probably has it. Thanks.
