Jack the Giant Killer to JAMMA Adapter

Description

Allows you to use your Jack the Giant Killer and other pre-JAMMA arcade games with the same pinout, in a JAMMA cabinet or a super gun device.

Jack the Giant KIller was developed and distributed by Cinematronics. The game was a failure and lead to the company declaring bankrupcy shortly after. The hardware was licensed from Hara Industries and was used to run several other games from Cinematronics and other licencees.
