Making a JAMMA adapter for my Sega Tapper board

[mchay]

I recently found a Sega Tapper board, which possibly is one of the relatively rare Suntory boards.

To see if this boards is running and what it in fact is running, I will have to make me a JAMMA adapter for det Sega board.

The very scarce information about the pinout is summed down to one single source:

Just to make sure, I wanted to hear if any of you have any experience with Sega Tapper boards og Sega boards in general - so I don't f**k something up.

There isn't a lot of info on the board, when searching the www - so I hope to get it running so I can conclude if it indeed is the Suntory Tapper or what it is.

Looks a whole lot like the pictures I can find around on the internet, so I'm very excitet to get it running.

Funny thing is that KLOV states that Sega denies ever having produced this board. Very interresting indeed.

Good idea. I will look into that when I get home and hopefully get it running tonight and see what awaits me.
