Is this good for a Supergun/Consolisation power supply?

I know it has no -5v, but well... for MVS that's fine, and can't one get -5v out of +5v somehow?

And yeah, it's a mammoth. Bigger than the XB360 power supply, and about as heavy as the one in my arcade cab. So, will I be able to get a -5v out of this? What MVS boards will it be able to power? And most of all, being so old do you think it's reliable?

I don't think that your +12v is enough to power anything. 30mA is like .03 Amps.

you could use it with a MV-1F if you get sound from the headphone connector.
