I think Columns is smaller, I might have another one that is even smaller, but I can't remember the name, I believe it was some Jamma shooter.

Columns:

I don't have it with me here at work ;)
It may be slightly bigger than Tetris (or not :D) but I know for sure that I have a smaller one, I am trying to remember the name. Maybe it wasn't a shooter? Could also be one of the "adult" games... :confused:

Mini Invaders is also not big :D:

I was thinking of Play Girls, I just can't find a pic, according to its KLOV entry it measures about three inches by four inches.
 
Puzznic, Plotting and Playgirls are even smaller (look at the jamma connector for comparsion)

Tetris is the smallest one I have owned but the Ms.Pac/Galaga is definitely smaller. I once saw a Konami JAMMA test PCB that was much smaller. It was as long as the JAMMA edge but only about 4 inches wide. It produced a couple of test screens and did input tests and that was it.
 
I owned a Puzznic pcb until I sold it to someone on here. Super small PCB. It was great, very cute. I wish all PCB's could be small like that. That's probably the smallest PCB I ever owned.
 
Multi-Taito... not really an "arcade" board though...

Arcadeshop Multigame... also not really an "arcade" board though...
