Oh, woops, guess I should take the time to read more. Sorry 'bout that. I hereby withdraw my interest.

Hey no prob. If he is willing to sell and it doesn't work out for me I'll make sure you have the second shot.
Neverending Project:
OK, I just realized that I will need to modify the Galaxian PCB to allow for DC voltages to make it JAMMA compatible. I already have the switching power supply in the cabinet which will work great for the Gallag, but I am reluctant to modify the Galaxian board. So now I am wondering this: what if I make a custom Galaxian JAMMA adapter that omits the DC power pins. These instead will be wired directly to the AC transformer. This way the switcher can switch between the boards, but the Gallag PCB will get its DC voltages from the switcher (through the JAMMA harness) and the Galaxian will get its AC voltages from the transformer. Will this work?
WunderCade:
Don't modify the PCB. You can get a Galaxian PCB to JAMMA adapter for 12.99 here.
SirPeale:
You can still use the DC switcher just fine without having to mod the board. Your PS will just run a little hotter is all.
