Digging through some Nintendo wiring harnesses today, and found this one I can't identify. Does anyone recognize it?

That's half of a VS Unisystem harness. The 44p side with power, A/V and coin door (with DK coin door adapters). You're missing the control half (36p).

Also missing the adapter on that 9pin molex style plug to convert it to DK style 9p, but I think the molex style plugs into a dedicated VS PSU (PP-1*00A) as is.
 
This would be the type of harness that would be installed in a DK style cabinet, right? Thus, the pigtail harnesses for coin, service switch, and counter?

I ask because I received this harness in a package that contained a Vs Unisystem kit for installation in a Midway Pac style cab. The Midway conversion kit appears complete, but this harness was included as a bonus. I didn't think it belonged with the rest of the Midway conversion kit.
 
Found the manual for the Vs Unisystem kit for install in a Nintendo cabinet.

Here's what I see:

It appears that this harness is missing the items with blue arrows. That would be the adapters for video, 9-pin power, and audio.

The control harness (that is missing) is referenced by the red arrow.

Also interesting to note: on the service switch pigtail (noted by the green arrow), my harness has an 'extra' pigtail included, with orange wiring terminating in barrel connectors. Was this for some sort of remote mounted service switch, maybe? I'm not sure.

At any rate, I'd love to complete this harness, so if anyone has the remaining pieces, let me know. I'm fairly certain I can rebuild most of the pieces with the exception of the 9-pin power adapter. That I won't be rebuilding (at least the 9 pin connector side) since the connectors are no longer available. All of the TE Connectivity (formerly AMP Mate-n-Lok) connectors and pins are still available, though.
