How to build a multi jamma?
littlecharlie:
HI, does someone know how to build a double jamma, to switch between 2 jamma pcbs?
I know there are some commercial multi jammas, but i'd like to build my own.
Thanks

The answer to your question is "Yes", but can you be more specific as to what you are looking for ?
Do you want to build your own JAMMA switch ?
Mechanical vs. Electronic switching ?
Do you want the boards to be powered the entire time ?
Controls connected to both games and just audio/video switching ?

Yes
Mechanical vs. Electronic switching ?
It would be great if i could do it by electronic means, eg, using a button to switch between pcbs
Do you want the boards to be powered the entire time ?
I don't really mind, just the easiest way. But if I had to choose, I'd choose that the boards only were powered when they are selected
Controls connected to both games and just audio/video switching ?
That's it!

It's not like I am going to design the circuitry for you -- *I* buy my JAMMA switches because it isn't worth the time to make them for *myself*, let alone design them for someone else.
