Components-

    • An output, on which the game is displayed. They may display either raster or vector graphics, raster being most common. Standard resolution is between 262.5 and 315 vertical lines[2], depending on the refresh rate (usually between 50 and 60 Hz). Slower refresh rates allow for better vertical resolution. Monitors may be oriented horizontally or vertically, depending on the game. Some games use more than one monitor. Some newer cabinets have monitors that can display high-definition video.
    • Printed circuit boards (PCB) or arcade system boards, the actual hardware upon which the game runs. Hidden within the cabinet. Some systems, such as the SNK Neo-Geo MVS, use a main board with game carts. Some main boards may hold multiple game carts as well.
    • **A power supply *to provide DC power to the arcade system boards and low voltage lighting for the coin slots and lighted buttons.
    • A marquee, a sign above the monitor displaying the game's title. They are often brightly colored and backlit.
    • A control panel, a level surface near the monitor, upon which the game's controls are arranged. Control panels sometimes have playing instructions.
