Title: 6 in 1 jamma board extensions...
Post by: zapposh on August 22, 2011, 06:07:29 PM
Hi,
Has anyone ever tried out or had any experience with these 6 in 1 jamma extension boards with the remote control?

Seems cool at first sight to combine similar games in one cab (Track & Field & Hyper Sports for example). Is it rubbish or is it actually any good?

There is also a 2 in 1 version, I guess you don't want to put 6 pcbs to 1 cabinet. ;D

Fred (Arcadefever) was the specialist for that, I'm remembering his NINE in one  jamma setup  :arrow:

...all the story on his post, right here (http://spaceinvaders.7.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=696).

I used to play on 2 in 1 jamma setup, even back in the days in the local Luna Park (and it was precisely Ghosts'n'Goblins with an other game I cannot remember). No specific problem, just need a good air ventilation as you can guess.

Actually i was thinking in making a cab like that.... i have the Neo Geo, and then do a copy of that cab and put it next to it... instead of saying NEO-GEO on the side it should say JAMMA...

I guess 2 in 1 would effectively be enough for starters. Going to order the one from jammaboards.

What an interesting post about the guy who fitted 9 pcb's into one cab. Thanks!
