Would it be too much to ask if someone on here could provide me with measurements of a Galaga/Midway board ?

I am looking to buy a Multicade mini cocktail tabletop machine (see http://www.jammaboards.com/store/multigame-mini-cocktail-arcade-machine.html)  & an original pcb board , and converting it into a dedicated portable Galaga machine.  Technically this should work with a Galaga board to JAMMA adapter ?

The concern is squeezing the board into the cab of 536mm x 292mm ( minus the thickness of the mdf).

Another route would be to install a Class of 81 arcade board which is much smaller or use a suitable cab.

I know that Galaga comes with the standard 60 games on the JAMMA board but I would prefer to have the real thing.

Any input is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Not answering your question exactly but have you played the 60/1 Galaga?  It is dead on in my opinion with all the same great sounds, look, and game play as the original.  I was a huge Galaga fan in the 80's and I see no difference here.  I can post a video if you like of mine in case you havent seen it.  I just think the 60/1 makes a lot more sense to have since you get all the games--and the board is much smaller too so there is not issue.  Good luck.  Steve

Emulators never work quite right IMO.

I played it in a 19 in 1 and I wasn't happy, felt OK
to play but there was some lag and it didn't seem
as smooth as the real h/w.
