Mame vs Jamma pcb on arcade cabinet???
(1/3) > >>
nigel1210:
I'm getting an arcade cabinet and i'm trying to decide, wether to go down the pcb or mame route.

I'm tempted with the mame route, but i want to know if i will get the same quality i will get with pcbs. I've noticed on my pc that games don't look as defined as they do on an arcade machine almost blurry, i suppose this is becuase the monitor is working at a higher resolution.

Will i still have this problem on a arcade monitor and mame, and are there any other disadvantages of having mame?
DeathMonk:
If you use a real arcade monitor with AdvanceMame or AcadeVGA it's going to look nearly identical.

Why not go both :)

Have a PC with jpac and arcadevga.  Swap between PCBs and the PC with mame :)

What he said.   That's what I'm doing.

Would someone care to elaborate on how to do both exactly. I'm a total nOOb here and i need to know what a JPac(and for that matter a I-Pac) is. Are u saying that PCB's can be connected to a PC? And what exactly defines a REAL arcade monitor? I mean could i use like a High Def TV? Thanks in advance.
