Description
Allows you to use your Nichibutsu pre-JAMMA game, in a JAMMA cabinet or a super gun device.
Nichibutsu, aka Nihon Bussan Co. was a small video game developer. Just like many arcade game manufacturers from this period, their games shared similar hardware and pinout configuration.
There are two styles of pinouts that Nichibutsu used. One for their earlier games that used an edge connector and a separate 5 pin video connector, and another for games released later on that used only a single edge connector. This adapter works with the later games that do not require the addition video harness.
