00:00Hey everyone! If you're building a custom cabinet or looking to breathe new life into an old coin-op
00:05machine, sorting through multi-game PCBs can get overwhelming fast. That's why I did the digging
00:11to find the absolute best deals on the top 5 arcade jama boards with built-in games that give
00:15you effortless setup and thousands of classics right at your fingertips. First up is the Pandora
00:21Saga Box DX2 Plus DIY Kit, coming in at $68.49. What makes this kit stand out is that it's
00:29an
00:29all-in-one package featuring responsive 8-way joysticks, classic American-style push buttons,
00:34and a massive 26800 built-in games. If you're starting a bar-top arcade build from scratch and
00:40don't want the hassle of buying hardware piecemeal, this set gives you the best bang for your buck.
00:45If you already have your cabinet wired up and just need a reliable brain, the standalone Pandora
00:50Saga Box DX2 PCB is a fantastic deal at $43.42. You get that same gigantic 26800 game library,
01:00paired with convenient plug-and-play HDMI and VGA outputs. It's an easy recommendation if you're
01:06upgrading an existing modern bar-top machine and want fluid performance without spending a fortune.
01:12Next on the list is the 29800-in-one Saga Box DX2 Plus mainboard, priced at just $41.66.
01:20The standoff feature here is its versatile multi-video support, handling HDMI, VGA,
01:26and traditional CRT monitors with ease. If you want a ridiculously large title selection and the
01:32ability to hook straight up to an authentic cathode ray tube for genuine scanlines, this board is a steal.
01:38Coming in at number 4 is the Pandora Saga DX Arcade JAMA Board, available for $42.46.
01:45This one is built specifically for arcade purists because it includes native CGA support alongside
01:50VGA and HDMI, meaning you can drop it directly into an original legacy cabinet without messing with
01:56converter boards. It's stable, reliable, and keeps the true coin-op spirit alive with zero latency issues.
