It was totally unlabeled - the pen markings are my attempt to make some sense out of the board. In order to use the cabinet for JAMMA games, one must replace the connector, or even rewire the entire cabinet, being careful to match each wire to the proper place on the connector.Īs you can see, on my machine, not only was the original board non-JAMMA (it was a proprietary pinout used by SNK), but also someone, possibly a repairman, wired the cabinet in a THIRD pinout, which I call "sorta JAMMA." The SNK board was connected to the cabinet with this janky board. Older games, like this IKARI Warriors cabinet, had a PCB pinout that doesn't match JAMMA. Damage from players and hasty fixes may equal some pretty insane problems with the hardware. What is less neat is many used cabinets have been a little abused by their previous owners. ![]() What this means for arcade game owners is that any post-JAMMA game board ("PCB") can be plugged into any JAMMA-compliant arcade game cabinet, and it will just magically work.
