VAGA Portable Jamma+ Box

Here's the Super Gun I manufactured in 1997, I call it a VAGA Box (Video Arcade Game Adapter). This allows you to link up arcade game boards and play them on a domestic Television, using the RGB inputs via a EuroSCART lead, as well as being a useful test rig.

It's made from an old aluminium covered camera case and has gone through a couple of incarnations. The first model was purely Jamma compatible, with three player buttons and a mono speaker.

Currently it's a Jamma+ box with six buttons,  kick harnesses for CPS1 and CPS2, and stereo speakers. The third version will have connections for extra players (upto 4) by either plugging-in  Joypads or by daisy-chaining additional VAGA boxes together. It'll also be capable of attaching other controls like a trackaball and light gun.
