Ace Amusements.us: Game PCBs

Hi! I have boxes and boxes full of arcade video game printed circuit boards (PCBs). Many are for classic games. Some work, and some don't.

If you do not find the PCB you are looking for among those listed below, let me know the titles you are looking for, and I will send you a quote.

Email me now for title and pricing inquiries: gameroomdude@yahoo.com

See the bottom of this page for a partial listing of PCBs for sale. PCBs are shipped USPS Parcel Post at a flat packing, shipping, and handling rate of $15 for USA. Your PCB will be packed with the best of care.

Of course, if you are local you may drop by my shop, test the PCB yourself, and save the shipping.

Be sure to check out my eBay store, that is where all of my PCBs will eventually be listed.

You'are a very good seller :)
I'm happy to deal with you.

PCB Ordering, Shipping and General Information:

The following are a few of the PCB game titles available. Many more are to be added.

First, a couple of definitions:

1. JAMMA indicates that the PCB was manufactured to a standard that would allow a 56-pin JAMMA harness edge connector to fit any JAMMA PCB. Meaning that almost any cabinet manufactured after about 1985 provides for PCB interchangeability.

Generally then, you can plug and play any JAMMA PCB in any cabinet with a JAMMA wiring harness. Exceptions occur when additional connectors are required to accomodate extra buttons and more than two players.

2. The descriptive term working means that the PCB was removed from a working game, then wrapped in bubble sheet and stored. Before shipment, the PCB will again be tested in a game or test fixture to assure that it is still working. So, to the best of my knowledge, the PCB will be working when it is shipped.

But, returns are not accepted, and there is no warranty that the PCB will be working when it is received. I offer statements of condition - working or not working - merely as a guide, but not as a guarantee.

I pack the PCBs very carefully in anti-static foam sheet, because they are very sensitive and delicate. Especially, the ones with sockets and plug-in chips, which includes just about all of the classic game PCBs.

Sometimes, the slightest static, vibration, board flex, and/or oxidation can cause problems with the plug-in chips. I have had a number of PCBs that were working when stored, but were not working when pulled for use.

It should be easy to understand how a PCB could be working when shipped, but due to handling during shipping, unpacking, and installation, it would not be working when powered up.

Furthermore, serious mistakes can be made when installing a PCB. For example, before you power-up a replacement PCB, be sure that:

the game power supply is operating correctly,

the edge connector is positioned, aligned, and seated properly,

the PCB is not touching any materials that might short out its circuits, and

never connect, or disconnect, the harness edge connector to the PCB while the game power is on.

Here are a few more PCB protection tips:

it is a good precaution to use a surge protector for your game,

make sure that your cabinet has an AC line filter and fuse,

vacuum the dust off the PCB every few months,

space multi-board PCBs far enough apart (about 1") to allow air circulation, and

improve air circulation with a computer fan directed at the PCB.

Also, never touch a PCB until you have first static discharged yourself. Leave the PCB in its anti-static covering until it is ready to be installed in the cabinet.

If you purchase a working PCB from me, but it does not work when received; then, contact me by email, and I will try to help you diagnose the problem.

You may use the Buy Now buttons below to purchase a PCB using your credit card or PayPal. Your PCB will be shipped within 2 business days of receiving your payment.

Plus, all PCBs come with a spacing and mounting hardware kit.
