Namco makes a bunch of multi games, namco collection , reunion boards,etc  Midway had a NFL Blitz NBA Showtime combo board, and theres the multi williams. as for the mame thing, look for Haze's blog or the forum post here about it.

Hey
Are there legal boards with several games or are they all just a couple?

the Namco anniversary games have up to 5 games on them. I think this is the biggest legal kit you can buy:

because gobalvr says so it dose not make it so..per say
what dose however is because Namco deved the jamma harness strandered
and yes it is a strandered,then they bought the rights to a multi titles
to long of a list for me to go into.......
once they realsed the harness in question all and i mean all mfg's of video games got on board.
now namco devs team went south..hence gobalvr picked a few of them up
same with its-gamming..but they all started to use jamma
the pin out is the same through any jamma board
ie no fuss no muss,are they legal bet your ass they are..
unless they are copy's/priated..thin lines there

not 100% sure Im reading that right, but yeah the JAMMA wiring standard wasnt made by just Namco; Capcom, Sega, Taito , and others factored into the standard.Global VR is no Ultracade / David Foley, as far as I know they are on the up and up and actually paid to license the games. If you look at the list, its not very stellar. I love Arkanoid but dont need 4 versions of it and super breakout in addition to 4 versions of Space Invaders and 4 versions of Bubble Bobble.
