Hi all. I picked up a very nice Die Hard Arcade today. I haven't had a chance to take pics yet but it's fully working and in very good to excellent condition. It seemed like a good deal for $200.00. I used to play it all the time and I KNOW it will get old quickly. I actually bought it because I thought it would look cool in my movie room. My question is can I plug in any Jamma game to this? KLOV says it's Jamma, I just want to be sure before I go plugging in my horizontal Jamma pcbs. I'm not going to change the graphics or alter it in any way, I just thought it would be fun to be able to play some other games in it. Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
 
Yes, it is Jamma. It runs on the SEGA ST-V motherboard. The cartridges are interchangable and can be had pretty cheaply for most titles. I'd say that it's an excellent buy for a nice working Jamma cab and a complete SEGA ST-V motherboard with Die Hard Arcade. Great game IMO.
 
BE CAREFUL WITH THAT BOARD!

They have 2 tiny tiny SH-2 processors on them towards the rear right corner of the board. They are soldered on an area of board that doesn't have much support and if you flex the board you will pop the solder joints on the pins and have a game that will not work right.

Those chips are a little over an inch square and have 144 pins each.
