The image on the XRGB-2 has no trouble at all and is shown entirely, but is shifted to the right. As a plus a Phoenix board has a menu that allows the region of the board to be changed, giving access to different languages and region specific extras in a few cases. It is convenient for others since a Phoenixed board doesn't need maintenance by changing the battery and spending time and money every few years, plus you eliminate the risk of a battery leakage. It is argued that a Phoenix board is technically a bootleg and it certainly is since the program ROMs are not the original ones, even if all the rest is kept identical. Phoenixing a board is a controversial matter for some, and a convenience to others. There are two ways to deal with this problem: preventing it by changing the battery in regular intervals, a five year period is usually recommended and after a board is dead, they can be Phoenixed by CPS Shock. The scheme worked quite well, however when the battery is exhausted the encryption keys are lost and the game stops working. Capcom encrypted the program ROMs in these in order to protect them against piracy, and the encryption keys are kept alive by a 3.6 1/2 AA battery in the B board. The term suicide battery is used to describe the problem that arises when a CPS-2 board battery expires. The harness is compatible with the Sega Naomi I/O board by Capcom and CPS-3 games. The volume up and down buttons in the harness have the same effect as the ones in the board.
Predator and the Dungeons & Dragons games use the port for this purpose. It can also be used for and 3rd and even 4th player, Alien Vs. One thing to note is that JAMMA pins c and 25 are also used for the fourth button of player 2 and 1 respectively in both Dungeons & Dragons games. It is most commonly used as a Kick harness, extending the JAMMA 3 buttons per player to 6 buttons, and is commonly used in fighting games. It is multipurpose and teh game might use it for different input options. The JAMMA+ harness found in CPS-2 boards is 34 pins in two rows. There are also black metal boards, which are a complete system and thus, they have no A and B parts.
However, there are boards that have been officially adapted for a different region than the one identified by the color.
The boards are colored to reflect their region, and thus their compatibility in general terms. There are two kind of connectors in the boards, these make the games physically incompatible between certain regions.
