Question: Do CPS1 JAMMA boards need -5v?

As stated unless the PCB is older/Golden Age or made by Midway chances are you do NOT need -5v.
Also I want to say Midway PCBs will still function/boot without it, but sound will not work (IDK if this is universally true however or just MK).

Smash TV, MK2, KI1/2...
 
Thanks all, mainly looking at adding a Sega Titan and CPS1 to the cabinet. So should all be good.
 
99% of the time -5V is used for SOUND only. So if you plug a board in... and get no sound, then you probibly need -5V. You can also look at the Jamma finger and see if the -5V pin goes to anything or not.
