Southtown Homebrew is GO! CMVS WINNER ANNOUNCED!

Okay, after much work involving myself, dubdubdub, and neoCEPH (along with many local warlocks and palmreaders), we bring you Southtown Homebrew. It is a site geared toward the Neo and how to make your life better in general (buy purchasing neo related stuff, of course). Without further delay, here is a direct link:

Southtown Homebrew Specialists

Our main focus right now is Shock Box insert printing. We have been printing plenty of inserts already and the quality can't be matched. We have printed for a few member here already, unofficially, and everyone has been very pleased with the results. They are $3 each, so you can say goodbye to Kinkos! Here, for a very fair price you can get quality inserts printed by people who actually care. No more repeated trips to the print shop because they messed up again. You will get what you expect and the inserts will make your MVS collection look spectacular.

Along with Shock Box inserts, we are also printing Atomiswave and PGM inserts. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! We are also selling the actual Shock Boxes. Now everybody has a simple one-stop-shop for your Neo collecting needs. They are priced at $8.50, so as far as we know, that is the best price anywhere (aside from private sellers and possible auctions). In additon to that, we are selling Jeff Kurtz's Neobitz RGB-to-NTSC convertors. We have the Neobitz-S DIY kits available and are getting the pre assembled and the regular Neobitz boards soon. We also have a CMVS for sale too. There will be more in the future as well.

We have more big plans for the future as well, but we are all exhausted from getting this much done. Once we are up and running, you should see new products and info on a regular basis.

Okay, now that that is all covered, on to the juicy stuff! To celebrate the launch of our site, we are giving away a consolized MVS unit. This unit was made by myself as a prototype for our site. There may be more like this one in the future for sale. It is all souped up and ready for some stellar NeoJams! This baby has it all —full Neobitz video outputs, standard AES controllers ports, UniBIOS 2.2, freeplay toggle, etc. And best of all, it is TINY. It isn't much bigger than the MVS carts themselves! Well, as they say, a pic is worth a thousand...

To enter the contest, simply purchase from our site. For every purchase your name will be entered once (not each time you purchase, but for EVERY item). So if you purchase 5 inserts at 2 different times, or 10 at once, your name will be entered 10 times. This will go on for 1 month and a winner will be drawn on June 11th. We will post a big video of all the name drawing action. It will be a blast.

I must conclude by saying this was all done for, and possible because of the grand genius of the Neo•Geo as well as the wonderful NeoCommunity here and elsewhere. We all love the Neo and can only hope to improve its status in peoples hearts. If you make any homebrew Neo stuff, let us know and we'll be glad to work with you to get it on our site. LONG LIVE NEO•GEO!

I am just happy all the "hard" work is done! Now members won't have to PM me anymore for inserts - saves us all alot of time.

I really want to thank everyone who helped us get this started. This truly was an effort of many. A few people have been "beta testing" and it was important to have thier help too. And of course without this kickass commuinity none of this would have ever came to be.

Like Eddie said, we have pleased quite a few members here in the past, and only hope to do more of that in the future.

Wow very slick store. The graphic design is just amazing, very 2.0!

That 1 slot looks sick. I'm gonna buy something just to get entered in the contest!

Thanks for the compliments guys. Most of the credit here goes to dubdubdub. Thanks for all the work, buddy! I forgot to mention that you can still download all the inserts at loopyeddie.com and print them yourselves as well.

Wow, looks good guys! Found a little fix that is needed. Got an extra "access to" in your About our Printing section on the main page.

About our Printing

Our printing service was created on a very simple premise: a lot of people need inserts printed but do not have access to access to commercial print equipment

I plan on ordering a bunch of inserts as soon as I get that last of the carts in.

I have 7 inserts in my cart now... have a couple of rework/touchups to do and submit before I finish the order. Gives me something to do this weekend! By the way, how is the uploading happening now?

In case I didn't mention it before... thanks for all the hard work and effort you guys have put into this. I know I appreciate it!

Finally. Beta testing was such a tease dammit.

Again thanks to dubdubdub for his fine work and loopy for his knowledge and his Bob Villa-ness.

It looks great guys, keep it up.

That MV1C is sexy, I think I came. :eek:

Dont forget about the other 1 slot, that thing is nice. I like the placement of the sticker.

Great store, and the CMVS looks hot! I just ordered a box & insert for my MOTW cart ... it's well past time to get it out of the bubble bag. :)

You might want to add an explanation of the shipping methods to the "Shipping & Returns" page ... I wasn't sure what the difference was so I just picked Flat Rate.

Looks awesome!

1 question though, you state that you only print them, but is it possible to let you cut them to the right size for additional fee?

For those of you who have never ordered inserts before these are top notch. Don't hesitate. Top Notch sellers as well.

When my name gets drawn on June 11th, I am going to poop my pants. :loco:

I came across some pictures of me and my dad "testing" the prototype. These must have been taken by some secret ninja spy! Since Qube moved, I have nobody to play Neo with, so the task usually falls on my dad. When we picked teams, he just picked at random. When the fight started, he had Mai. He says, "Oh shit, I gotta girl!"

A couple of tubbies playing neo:

Watch out for secret lazer-eyed cat:

(I don't know what's up with the screen in the pic. It looks fine in real life)
