Excuse my ignorance...

but there are exceptions to that, like NBA Jam

And a lot of Atari classics. Some of them look a lot like JAMMA harnesses.

That's a big question, and may need a bit more input from you, I feel.
Over to the pros ....

Articulating this: what cirucumstances are you asking from?

Welp...I'm going to continue my ignorance. I guess that I was wondering from the standpoint that if I were out buying a cab how could I tell from just looking inside? I went to Jammaboards.com like Zeno recommended and that helped a lot. I'm really pretty new at this and I'm making every attempt to relive some of my past. After I told my wife about my latest cabs, she thanked me for not growing up. I'm pushing hard on 50. I've been in the ham radio hobby for years and thought that I would get out of that to pursue arcade machines. I have a spare bedroom that I call my man room (I should really call it the kid room) that is going to have about 10 cabs and a kegerator. I thought it might be nice to get a Jamma cab to give me more games in less space.

Well, REALLY more games in less space is a mamecab, but sure you could do that. The main thing to look for, since you're looking inside, is a jamma edge connector - either connected to a board or hanging.
