Description
Allows you to use your Capcom 1942 or Vulgus 56 pin pre-JAMMA PCB, in a JAMMA cabinet or a super gun device.
Capcom released several games in 1984. Two of these games, 1942 and Vulgus had a common pinout while other games like Son Son and Higemaru were unique. Next year in 1985, Capcom standardized the edge connector somewhat, and going forward, their games used the Capcom Classics pinout.

Compatible Games
This is the list of compatible games that can be used with this adapter:
The adapter has been tested with genuine Capcom 1942 and Vulgus boards and several bootlegs for compatibility. Some bootleg boards use a 44 pin connector and are not compatible.
Important: Most Capcom pre-JAMMA games use a 56 pin edge connector, and may appear to have a JAMMA compatible connector. Connecting pre-JAMMA Capcom games into a JAMMA connector directly, or using the wrong adapter, will likely result in damage to your game.
