It's a 3 player harness I guess but the main harness plugs into what looks like an adapter board and then that plugs into the PCB.It's not like a regular Jamma harness.Anyone know if it's just for this game?
I am looking to sell the PBC and not sure if this harness would need to be sold with it to play the 3 player.I will get some pics asap if needed.Thanks for your help,Steve.
 
Haven't looked at the wiring in my dedicated GB but from my understanding if there is an adapter then the wiring harness is specific to that game. Technically the game board is jamma but for some reason they added the adapter and matching wiring. If the adapter comes off the board (some are glued) you should be able to plug the board to a jamma harness and it should work. Well work with a few modifications/additions. Probably extra wiring for player 3 and I think each coin slot is player specific so that would be an extra wire too. Then I also found I needed an extra wire from the harness to the monitor for sync purposes which is strange but mentioned in the manual. Might be easiest to sell the harness with the board.
 
Thanks for the info.Heres some pics.I'm not sure if the board can be modified but I know theres a 2 player version.I would think this could placed in a regular Jamma harness and played like that.Do you know of any other games that have this type?

I have seen other data east titles with adapters on their boards. Pretty sure the bad dudes I once owned had one. I know I've read postings on Quarter arcade of boards for sale that had factory glued on adapters but were basically jamma boards.

Have also had sega games that have a whole board cage with adapters that connects to the board then to a filter board then to the main wiring. The boards I can think of clearly had the word jamma printed on the PCB and I tested at least one in a jamma cab and it worked fine.
 
Ok cool thanks again for the help.I will proabaly just sell the boad and hold on the harness in case I pick-up a board that needs one.
