Taito jamma multigame board ??

[LOWTECH]

I have a Taito 10 game counter model that i picked up on ebay a couple of years ago. With shipping I paid $150.oo. They made 3 models: a 10 game Taito countertop, a 6 game snk counter top, and a 20 game taito upright. The board is the same in all three models. It stores the games on an SD card. If anyone gets one of these ... shoot me a PM. I have the IMG's for all three models. You just drag an IMG to a blank SD card and plug it into the board. They had also announced a CAPCOM model ... but never released it.

Yes, they can be bought directly from HanaHo.

No Crazy Climber, no sale.

Yes, they can be bought directly from HanaHo.

I vaguely remember someone at Neo Geo.com contacting them and finding out they wanted a ridiculous amount for them.

well said sir we are a bunch of cheap ass's

I am guessing it DOES NOT save high scores?

In menu screen shots?

Here are some menu shots from that Retroblast article. I was going to email the guy from that NY CL ad and see if I could get him to sell me just the board (and for a lower price), but I don't have money for the projects I'm already knee deep in so never bothered to.

that's a pretty cool menu, thanks for the pics.

i would be interested in purchasing 1 from you (if you were able to get ahold of these) would love to have a multi-taito cab! chris

That menu is from the 10 game model. It is a cool menu. The 20 game is just a menu list.

Yes, the 20-game menu is a list on one page. The background changes to a screen shot of the selected game.

I believe the 10 game Taito countertop model has: Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble, Elevator Action, Jungle Hunt, Zoo Keeper, Qix, Arkanoid, Rastan, Rainbow Islands, & Space Invaders.

I think a price point around $100 would be fair for the 20 version.
It would be nice if additional games can be added via the memory card.
If it was much higher I think that you are going to hit the same wall as the 19-in-1.
One major question. What is their solution to the fact that there are both Vertical,
and horizontal on the board? Or am I just cornfused about the mix?

 

[ENDOFLINE]

im also wondering how difficult it would be to rig up a SPINNER for arkanoid?? wonder if this board would support spinner control.....

im also curious how the vertical games play on it too..... like QIX, SPACE INVADERS, etc.

 

[mattosborn]

The vertical games are just rotated to play horizontal. You are not going to be able to hook a spinner up to this board.

 

[Frankenpora]

Nix,
Your source can't be selling very many of these. I would low ball them on a high volume
and see what happens. You may get a surprise since they have been out for several years
at this point. Also SD has come way, way down.

I made an animated GIF of the 20-game menu:
