Pretty new to arcade hardware ownership, so hopefully I won't mangle questions or terminology too much.
So, I'm aware that - for example - MVS cabinets aren't 100% JAMMA compatible and trying to use a JAMMA pcb in an MVS cabinet...or an MVS mobo in a JAMMA cabinet is problematic because of the differences in the pinout (mono vs stereo audio, etc).
...but is that ONLY for multislot mvs boards? It seems like it from what I see on hardmvs (http://www.hardmvs.com/html/PCBcompare.htm)
IE, (other than using unused jamma buttons for D-button, etc) are single slot MVS mobos 100% JAMMA compatible?
For example, I have a friend who has a supergun he built for use with CPS2 hardware, would I be able to safely (I wouldn't want to risk his hardware in the slightest) plug a single-slot MVS mobo into his supergun? Controller setup issues aside, anyways.
