Installing Galaga gameboard

[JakeJarmel]

I plan on buying a galaga PCB and putting in into an empty cabinet.  Want to ask for a little bit of help.

The only experience I have with jamma is installing a 60 in 1.  Will hooking up the galaga PCB be similar to hooking up the 60 in 1?

I will be using an LCD screen.

What I know I need:

1) CGA to to VGA converter to be able to hook up to the LCD monitor.

2)  Jamma harness

3)  Jamma adapter

4)  amplifier (?)

This is where I'm confused.  Power supply.  Not sure what kind of power supply this will need and what volts for galaga.  Would this be the same as a 60 in 1?

Is there anything else that I need to know about to hook up the PCB?

Thanks for the help

I've never installed a Galaga specifically, but it looks like a typical arcade power supply could power it without problem. https://triosdevelopers.com/jason.eckert/galaga/PCBs.html

That site shows it's just 5 and 12 volt, pretty normal stuff. If you don't get more responses here, you might try KLOV. That forum has way more members that specialize in original hardware.

Just be aware that Galaga is one of the most bootlegged games of all time. Your pinout might not be the same as the actual board.

My Galaga runs off a standard switching power supply and there is a doodad to connect a Galaga board into a Jamma wiring harness. Sorry, I don't know about the video.

All you need is

Switching power supply
JAMMA harness
Galaga JAMMA Adapter
CGA to VGA converter
LCD monitor

Good luck
