I'll be honest with you, I don't actually have an NES so I've never tested any NES stuff with the MC Cthulhu. Maybe it has something to do with your RJ45 cables? Hopefully someone else who uses an NES with their MC Cthulhu can chime in.
Console JAMMAizer! Easily connect home consoles to your JAMMA arcade cabinet.

Yep, it definitely could be the cables. I had issues with SNES ones from the same maker. I'll unplug these and get to making my own... cheers!
(Crossposting as requested)
I hooked the JAMMAizer up to the cab with a softmodded PAL Wii with Retro Gaming Cables SCART and the two RJ45 cables I made, however my "backup" .iso is NTSC region and displays in Black & White over RGB. Luckily the PAL disc was on the shelf. Loaded up without a hitch. I needed to use the Wiimote to load the actual game, as you can't control the Wii Menu with a GC controller, and the USB Loader GX menu doesn't seem to like the Gamecube inputs either, but it's not a big deal. Anyhows. SUCCESS. Here's some pics (my old ass iPhone sucks for taking pics).
I love this game and how over the top the hyper combos, etc. are. Also the Tatsunoko franchise is such a memorable part of the era of Japanese pop culture I fell in love with. Very happy I didn't settle for the inferior? (and now overpriced) arcade version of this. I'm glad it works in my Astro City at 480i. I'll test it in the Blast City at 480p sometime down the line.
Make sure ya'll get on that next batch of the JAMMAizer that @Arthrimus is cooking up. This game alone is yet another reason to own it.

I'm just now learning about this treasure! Can't wait to get on the NEXT Pre-order!
Your timing couldn't be better. But you better be alert quick. These won't last long.

I’m fiddling around with a crtemudriver mame build, using a jammaizer via vga for video amp and controls. @acblunden2 suggested the concept. I’m totally digging it!if anyone was looking at other options like jpac I’d suggest thinking about this. I’m in for another one next round.
Pics of said build once done!
Video off the UVC is already amped/clamped/DC restored down to 240p, right? If so, I wouldn't pipe the video off UVC through JAMMAizer's video circuitry. Pipe the video direct through to the JAMMA harness.
Build one of @Frank_fjs JAMMA Adapters. Don't solder in the jumper bridges for R/G/B/Sync/VGnd (red box). Then bypass the jumpers and pipe UVC video directly onto the tap points for R/G/B/Sync/VGnd on the JAMMA Adapter (green box). Solder the jumper bridges for all the other inputs. You can even tap 5vdc and 12vdc for the UVC off the JAMMA adapter. Best of all, it is reversible and you can still use JAMMAizer for the audio and controls.
I ended up building a “UVC Interceptor” JAMMA Adapter. It only passes the inputs and sound across and cuts the video feed and replaces it with the UVC’s.
Don’t mind the crazy JAMMA chain here, it’s not that crazy

Arthrimus, any update on this? You mentioned you were originally planning for September and obviously delays can happen, but do you have an idea of when more units might be available?
Any solution for this issue?
I am very happy about my jammazier. I add on my set up my dreamcast with VGA cable. I have a little graphic issue on the top of the screen, it'seems like frequency issue with MVS slot. My set New Net City with jammafier and try sync helper.
