Consolization

Consolization is the process of modifying an arcade video game board for use on a standard television set. The resulting unit is known as a "consolized" system. The process is a self-contained alternative to using a SuperGun, a device which allows you to connect a Jamma arcade board to a standard television.

A popular candidate for consolization is the Neo Geo MVS system, because it has interchangeable game cartridges. Other arcade systems have followed, including PGM and Atomiswave. Theoretically, any arcade PCB with RGB output can be consolized.

Typical components used in the process of consolization include:
