Consolized MVS Systems

This is the MV-1C console that I've been working on. The control pad sockets are about 10mm too high but it is the prototype. Just need to add artwork now. It's 23.5cm x 24 x 6.5 (minus feet) [just under 9.5inches x 9.5 x 2.5] so it's smaller than a Saturn, but a little wider than a SuperFamicom, same depth though and about as high.

I'm using a Jameco SC200 PSU (5pin DIN) and an RGB Scart lead (7pin DIN). Will upload more pics later with a shot of the rear ports and the final artwork.

I've also been consolizing a couple of MV-2Fs. Just need to wire in the joystick sockets, power switch and light and the power and AV ports. So that's everything then. But we're nearly there:



This is 51.5cm x 31 x 6.5 [20.25inches x 12 x 2.5]

So yeah, what does everyone think? If you're wondering why they're white, the MV-1C is to go on the shelf with the DC, Saturn, PCE Duo R and PSone all of which are (off)white. But I can do the 2slots in any colour.....

How much would you charge for a one slot?

Nice job. What are they made of?

I really don't like the power switch on the top of the console though, but that's just my personal preference.

Great job !
How will you do the artwork ?

Well I've finally managed to get some better quality pics up.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone, I was hoping people would like them The cases are actually made out of fibre board, and then sprayed. I'm printing the artwork on very thin clear sticky acetate. Once it's stuck on, the cases will get a final coat of clear matt varnish to seal everything. I'm planning to put the 'SNK' logo between the pad ports, and the 'Neo*Geo' logo on the top. The 2 slot will be the same, but with a much larger NG logo and also the 'MVS' logo on the top, bottom-left. The second 2slot will have the round smiley faces logo on top instead. But I can do them whatever colour people want, with whatever artwork you want.

Adamaki - I can put the switches wherever people want them.

playboycougar - Will send PM later.

I'm very interested in understanding how you print on the acetate film.
Where do you find it ? What printer do you use ?
I have the same kind of project and i'm looking for solutions to do artworks.
Don't feel forced to reply if you want to keep you technique a secret ! ;-)

Nice!

Some good looking stuff popping up here recently.

is possible to make one neogeo AES

I love those cases!

Kinda Apple-esque.

I don't think it's fair for you UKers to call your work "consolized." You don't get the privledge of futzing with an RGB to NTSC/PAL encoder!

That's pretty pimp too. I was just discussing with someone putting LEDs on the underside of a supergun, kinda like one of those cars with black lights on the underside.

Wow that's a neat idea! Might try that on mine.

HAHA! I hope your unibios has a cover on it :chimp: true blacklight would look better IMO though.

I installed some blue cold cathodes in a 4-slot ages back - using a black light looks crap as there's nothing to shine the uv off....

That's why you get creative with the uv paint, and start painting traces
