Greetings one and all.

If I was to consolize an MV-1C, would I have to do anything fancy to get it to work with a Neo CD Pad?

I am aware that the Pad has IC's present and that they require power (5v?).

My question is:
If I wire the joypad ports straight from the JAMMA edge connector (a la pinout) will it supply the pad with the required power or will I need to route the power into the joypad port from elsewhere?


Many thanks.

Yeah, the +5v is all the same... Take it right off the edge connector....

How are you consolizing it?
If the connector shows, it would look niceer if you took the +5 from an IC chip....

Don't worry, mate. It'll all be in a case. :)

In fact, I would go so far as to say that you will never have seen anything remotely like it.... ;)


Thanks for the info, mate.

Much appreciated.

can't wait to see what case your using.

Weve seen all sorts of them. Saturns, Dreamcasts, AES, Ammo Boxes, NGCD, Plastic boxes.

You already know more than most, Raz.

Keep it to yourself for now, mate. ;)
