I thought I'd start a new thread since people seemed interested in how this multi-game pcb runs.
AliExpress Link $69.00

Anyways, I just picked this up off AliExpress for $69. Here's my initial impressions.
Pros
- Cart was PLUG & PLAY for me from the jamma edge
- No video issues, I get a nice clear steady image
- Quick and responsive Front End selection menu
- I've only noticed framerate issues on the CPS3 games (Street Fighter 3), all other games seem to run pretty well
- Buttons & Joystick inputs feel very responsive
- Nice built-in IO test for buttons and joysticks
Cons
- Requires your "P1 Coin" to be wired up. Must add coins to navigate and select games. No free play mode. I wired up a dedicated button beside my board.
- Some games have sounds that seem "soft" or the quality has been lowered. Doesn't seem to be all games, and those that do still seem perfectly playable. Note: I'm also running the mono audio from the jamma edge. I haven't tested the line out connector via an amp yet.
- Street Fighter 3 ha framerate issues
- Golden Axe is playable but enemy death SFX are really loud
So far I'm pretty happy with this little board. I was burnt before with a Happy Fish multi board and the Pandora 3 BLOWS it out of the water in terms of game performance. If anyone has any specific game video request just let me know.
Videos excuse my one hand playthroughs...
