I really want to buy this since it is very convenient for my stand-up arcade. Just plug in the jamma harness and boom, you're playing. I just have one doubt, can I use the HDMI port to connect my LCD on it? Or maybe even VGA cable on it?

I recommend using VGA output as you can still have amplified audio through the JAMMA edge. You could output HDMI to your monitor but it would have the audio signal on HDMI rather than feeding it back through to the JAMMA speaker.
