I have a nintendo dual system with cyber ball 2072 in it I want to convert the one side and leave the other side cyber ball 2072. Does any one know the correct procedure to convert the cabinet to jamma?
 
Most Cyberball games were just a Jamma harness with a second harness for the second monitor. You just need to decide which side stays Cyberball and install a Jamma harness in the second side. Bob Roberts has very high quality Jamma harnesses.
 
I have to look at the board again but the hardness plug in on the top of the board there like four or five plugs on it ill have to take a pic

The extra harnesses are for the player three and four controls as well as output to the second monitor. These things are not standard Jamma and are usually referred to as Jamma+.
 


That is interesting, the Cyberball board I had came from a Nintendo dual upright and was Jamma.



Anyway, it doesn't change what I told you. Buy a Jamma harness and install it on the secondary side of the cabinet. Do you intend to keep the Cyberball fully playable via a switch or some other method, or are you only going to have a 2 player Cyberball plus a Jamma cab?

What kinds of Jamma games are you planning to run? A normal 15 amp switcher can usually handle two game boards. If you are wanting to play some of the newer boards that draw a lot of power then a second switcher is the safe way to go.
