Quoted from jncall21:

Batteries directly mounted to MPUs? Lethal. Any others?

Considering the manufacturers goal probably was to make games that would last max. 5 years in route in order to get operators to buy new games instead of trying to get some more years from their old stuff, the batteries should have been overcharged with even more current. Inferior IC sockets and board edge connectors sure helped
