I'm going to say no. You're going to need the mobo in the first place when you pick up the game...

Unless the mobo died or something and you have two gamesa nd one mobo...

I can't comment on the System 12, but I know that the System 11 uses a few game-specific ROMs on the mainboard.

Ah, found out. Like System11, System12 uses game specific ROM's surface mounted on the motherboard. The small ROM board also uses surface mounted ROM's that are game specific.

The top board(CPU/Video board) is interchangable between games though.

looked on klov and they said in tekken tag:

"This game can be converted into other Namco's System 12 games like Tekken 3 and Soul Calibur."

Technically yes, because you can still swap out the ROMs individually if you want. It just wouldn't be worth the hassle.
