The Arkanoid pinout does not use very many pins. I would assume that when making the adapter I would just ignore all the Jamma pins that don't correspond to anything on my board.

Soo... got home today and looking in my cab again. What exactly qualifies as a "hacked mess"? My cab has a new looking power supply, and and old looking (isolation?) transformer, and only uses the transformer for the monitor. Every single harness in the cab is spliced on both sides of every...

Thanks for the feedback guys. Making a single Taito-to-JAMMA adapter will be a lot easier than rewiring the whole cab for JAMMA and making 2 adapters going the other way. Matt, I hope you still have some Arkanoid 2 high score save kits, that's on my to do list once I can get the board up and...

Apologies for digging up a 9 month old post, but my question is related to a lot of what is already written here. I have an Arkanoid cocktail with Arkanoid 1, and Tournament Arkanoid in it (i just swap the harnesses between the PCBs). I got an Arkanoid 2: Revenge of Doh PCB, which is JAMMA...

Where are you in Michigan? How is the monitor in terms of burn-in, colors, etc?

Great job on the restoration. Always nice to see an Arkanoid being cleaned up. I also like that you switched knob styles. I'm a fan of the one you used. I really should fix the 2nd player controller on my cocktail...

WTB: Skee Ball Classic, pref. broken/cheap, near MI I'm looking to buy a Skee Ball machine, preferably the classic styling (yellow/brown), not the newer neon ones. I plan to do some modification to the scoring and display parts of it, so functioning electronics are not a huge deal to me. It...
