BUCKETHEAD:

Put this out in the main forum to see if i can get a answer?

Bear with me i am new at this.

I picked up a COMBATRIBE cabinet the other day.

tommy:

You can play any jamma pcb on that jamma cab , you might have to adjust the kick buttons on some.

paigeoliver:

More SPECIFICALLY, you can play any JOYSTICK using standard res, horizontal Jamma game, that is MOST of them.

Basically, after you check out a Jamma board on ebay, go over to klov.com and verify that the board is HORIZONTAL, Standard res, and that it uses joysticks and doesn't have more buttons than your control panel has.

Also, never buy an "untested" Jamma board, they are almost always bad (almost anyone who would own a Jamma board has the ability to test it, since they will at least power up in essentially 98 percent of games made since 1986.

BUCKETHEAD:

Say if i wanted to add more buttons to this cabinet?

Would i have to obtain another JAMMA control panel harness or something

similar to this effect?

tommy:

Some jamma games need more buttons then the jamma harness allows(jamma+)... you would need the kick harness that would normally come with the pcb, the kick harness is hooked up to the pcb most times to the left or right of the main harness, then you would just have to wire from that kick harness to your buttons.

 For example i could play mortal kombat on my jamma cabinet, but just with 3 buttons , high punch, block and high kick, those.. come from the jamma harness , if i wanted to use the other 2 buttons i would need to buy/make the harness for the extra buttons that are not on the jamma connector, hope that helps.
