Hello all...i'm a new neo-geo convert. i got started in 8th grade, playing Samurai Shodown2 at the convenience store instead of going to class. Now that i'm older and have some money, I lucked into getting a big red 4-slot on ebay that a guy had jsut around the corner from me (I live in toronto). I managed to cram it in a minivvan and get it home, and I have been enjoying it for the last couple weeks. Here is a picture of my new baby.
It's got 4 games right now, Sam. Sho. 1+2, Metal Slug 1, and bust a move 1.
There are, unfortunately, a few small issue with it that I was hoping the experts here might help my resolve...any assistance is appreciated.
The first issue involves a high-pitched whine. I would usually associate this with the screen and the capacitors that are involved, but what is strange is that of the 4 slots, only slots 2 and 4 make the sound. Slots 1 and 3 have no problem. Any idea what the issue is here and a how to fix it?
The second issue involves the volume. While the slider does work, it seems that the top-end volume is often well below where it should be. Other times, potentially after i leave it running for a while, the sound seems loud enough. Any thoughts here?
Finally, I have no idea how to lter the difficulty levels of the games. They say Level-4 on most of them, and I'm fairly sure this is a changeable function, but I dont know how. I'm also not sure if there is some sort of BIOS or something on these cabinets that I can access.
Thanks in advance for any assistance, all. I'm glad to be here. Also, I'd be glad for any game recommendations...i'm gonna need some more carts to fill the time.
