I am looking at purchasing one and want to get some info on it first. Will it plug up to a jamma cabinet and work, will I need to buy more than just this monitor (assuming that I have a cabinet with all the jamma stuff but not monitor just a wire with 5 wires & a power wire where the monitor use to be.
Thanks for any info!

You have to make sure what GAMES you have to use for the Monitor. Some Games require CGA, some EGA, some VGA etc...If your game is CGA and you have a VGA then it won't work. There are monitors out there the supports all 3 res... but then the price is a little higher.
So I guess, it depends on what games you have.

Hmm, How do I tell which one I have now? It is a complete arcade cabinet all the electronics but no monitor.
Thanks!

all you have to do is name the game and people can tell what monitor you need.

Ah ok, The one I am working on now is WWF Super Star, American Technos Inc.
I also have Mortal Combat III & Street Fighters that needs monitors.
Thanks for the info!
