Stupid Question Time: Capcom PCB's

[Hovoc]

I picked up a capcom pcb of a game that wasnt released here in the states. I have yet to get it in and was curious if any of the capcom pcb's needed any special hardware of not.

You mean like additional boards or hard drives? Or something else? Usually that stuff is on a game by game basis - what game did you buy?

Bah, i feel stupid for mentioning it.... Mickey's Magical Tetris Challenge.


KLOV said it wasnt released here int he US so I figured Id pick it up. The board looks like a standard board, but the more I thought about it, the more I figured I would ask.

KLOV says its jamma, so Im hoping it will just hook up into whatever I feel like putting it in.

Also, I cant find any screens on what cabinet's this was put in. I know they were conversion kits, but nothign is listed on what the most common cab was. Due to the lack of need of a huge control panel, I assumed a normal tetris cab or similar would work. But if anyone can shed some light on this, itd be much appreciated.

Before I traded it away, I used to play this in my Taito Egret. Really, any JAMMA cabinet should do just fine.

k, was just checking, i know jamma is the standard, and klov lists it as being jamma, but with it being japanese, i didnt wanna give my hopes up.

Jamma hasn't any region protection, althought some games give a screen that a game only shall be used in a certain part of the world. The only things which can have a region-protection are systems which works with a motherboard and a cart. I know almost sure there was a protectionsystem in the Sega ST-V / Titan and Taito F3.

But for all games if you buy them complete and they are jamma they will work.

BTW you reminds me I still have to make my Tetris Plus 2 making fit in my cabinet to check it once. I don't have much expection, but I should give it a try.

You know what the J in JAMMA stands for right?
