Ms. Pac Man Conversion
Question from Steve: I have been looking everywhere for the JAMMA 60-in-1 Ms. Pac Man multicade conversion kit. I think jammaboards.com is closed or at least is not taking new orders. Can you tell me where to buy one?

Response from Jonathan: Steve,
Unfortunately JAMMAboards.com owner Tim Hensel passed away recently and the store has been closed ever since his death. At this point, we do not know if his family plans on reopening the store or not. We would ask that you keep his family in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this difficult time.
With that said, Arcadeshop also sells most of the items needed to accomplish this upgrade but it’s not in the nice, neat package that JAMMAboards.com offered. You will need to order a the Ms. Pac/Pac-Man Cabinet to JAMMA PCB Adapter and a 15 Amp Switching Power Supply from Arcadeshop and then order a 60-in-1 board and some wire from one of the other retailers listed on our resources page under the Arcade Parts Suppliers & Distributors heading.
Unlike the JAMMAboards.com version of this adapter which had a nice place to plug in a 4-pin power supply Molex connector, the Arcadeshop adapter will require you to solder some voltage wires (hence the need for some additional wire) from your power supply to the adapter board (which means you will need a soldering iron and some solder as well). This is why we are recommending the standard 15 Amp Switching Power Supply instead of the ATX-type computer style power supply that we use in our video. With these items you should be able to accomplish the multicade upgrade process.
Hope that helps. Thank you for your question and good luck with your future repairs.
