Gohan would be da GOAT for this

So anyone else heard of this Atari VCS crap going on? 

80% of a Super Guns price is labor.

They are very tedious (but not difficult) to wire up.

If your going for Neo Geo or CPS2 consider a consolidation instead of a Super gun.

A Pico PSU and using an external video processor like the OSSC or XRGB is probbily the easiest way to go.

Full on Superguns are best with boards without interchangeable games or support for a wide number of arcade boards.

So I got a Broken Avenue 6 pad for $25 shipped

All it took to fix it was some minor cleaning to unjam some buttons

LOL, the Project boxes I ordered came in and they are too Big.

Not unusable, but they are twice the size I needed them too be.

Oh yeah, there be a breakout box for modern systems.

I am considering using the new Brooks Mars game pad.

And if that don't pan out, I got a UFB board not being used.

I going to make Modern Systems and PC Engine Boxes first, then A Sega Genesis Breakout box.

Also if I can, make a MC Cthulhu breakout box.

It's not USB at all, Thats a Switch Craft VGA pass-though with a HD15 Breakout board attached

I am going to put this onto a Jasen hicks Panzer Stick case.

[Edit]

I Changed my Mind, I going to Put this into a Old Hori Case instead.

A long since gutted Hori Hrap 3 I been using as a SNES Stick.

First Step to one of my newest Stick Mods.

I going to Retro Convert one of my Sticks to be Neo Geo+ Only, and use external Project boxes.

Can you blame them though? The consumers told NRS that they loved the guest characters by spending the most money on them in MKX. It only made sense for them to continue the trend in Injustice 2.

There is guess characters and then their Injustice 2, the MUGEN of consoles

I am waiting till NRS does a cross promotion with Arc sys and Togo and Put Goku in there

I am happy with my current PC engine setup of PC Duo + Turbo Everdrive, and I have an Arcade Duo Card.

PC Engine CD games aren't hard to burn. Although I wished more games got the English Language Translation Treatment.

Also I got some Stick modding projects in the future. I going to gut the innerds of one of my Custom sticks, convert it to go off Neo Geo + Pinout, and just use project boxes for various systems.

Also Mark of the Wolves is on the Switch's eStore as part of the Arcade Archives collection.

I kinda like the First Injustice, but at some point Injustice 2 went overboard with the extra guess characters. Sometimes less is more.

The Neo SD is like $400 while some of the games are $200 each, it almost pays for it self.

But $400 is alot to drop.

Quoting images isn't always a bad thing. We'll play it by ear for now.

Cool.

I bought the MVS. Money-spending death spiral has begun.

 

 

 

 

Welcome to the Money Pin.

Also you should look into not allowing images to be quoted.

If it can not be done in code, make it a forum rule.

Hi everyone ! Robots in disguise and all that

Good, we need some transformers love in here

Ralf, because reasons

CD drive works for me just fine.

The issue I heard older drives get is not the laser wearing out but one of the gears breaking

I do have spares.

Here the inside of my PC Duo

I had accidentally pulled the solder pads for the CD activity LED.

I had the Replacement LED leads a lit long on purpose to preposition the Light, and moving the LED caused the pads to lift. Hence you see the repairs made with kynar wire to reroute the LED.

Here is the Power LED in action

The Red gets washed up more in Photos than in person, but here is the Blue CD drive indicator light in action.

I checked out their site, my bank refuses to do any transactions with the NEO SD store.

When I emailed them about it, they insist the issue is on my side, not theirs and its my problem.

That some bad customer service.

Also their forum presence on the Neo geo forums is dubious.

Just got around to putting a Power LED into my PC Duo.

I mounted the LED the frosted window the CD drive activity light is also located.

I made the Power LED Red, and swap out the CD Light got swapped out for Blue, otherwise the two LEDs would blend together.

I felt the Blue LED was too bright, so I added a 75 ohm resistor to lower the brightness.

The RED Power LED has a 470 ohm resistor and takes power from one of two 7805A voltage regulators.

In hindsight 470 ohms was too much resistance for the Red LED as the Blue LED still overpowers slightly

Also, Why Blue LEDs are so fricking bright compared to Red?

I've plugged my friend's 1070 in now - everything works.

 

... When's GTX 2080 coming...

When MCV I 2 comes out :tongue:. Joking.

My current 1080 is the first Nvidia card I bough in a decade.

I got tired of waiting for AMD to unfuck themselves with the Vega launch.

And now GPU prices are, well they are straight up highway robbery because of shit-head bit coin miners.

Getting a Graphics card or any PC part at MSRP shouldn't be a challenge, it should be the default.

Dumb questions, but is your PCI power cables properly seated in your 980ti?

I am starting to like this forum better than the old Soviet Republicks Kountry

Nah I'm selling him some of my old parts, he wouldn't get a good deal on DDR4 if he bought new anyway.

That works just as well.
