Description
Allows you to use your Gigas pre-JAMMA game, in a JAMMA cabinet or a super gun device.
Gigas, which was originally developed at least in part by Nihon System and was licensed to and released by Sega in 1986. The first version of Gigas, ran on proprietary hardware used in at least one other Nihon System game, Free Kick.
Gigas / Gigas Mark II pcbs may have been released with different pinouts. This may be especially true with bootleg games. This adapter works with Gigas versions that have a 36 pin main board, and a 10 pin daughter board edge connectors.
Daughter board cable is included with this adapter.
