Hello, I'm new here so I'll start off explaining my problem. I've been researching this project for quite a while now and I need a bit clearing up on my understanding through a few questions. I want to build a custom cabinet using a four slot Neo Geo pcb.
1.I have a Neo Geo 4 slot PCB(mv-4). My big concern was the JAMMA harness. I know MVS uses a different setup concerning the harness. However, I made the mistake by ordering a NeoGeoMVS to JAMMA adapter. A waste of a few bucks.
so, to my understanding, All I have to do is wire the harness to the MVS configuration correct? (I have a digram)
2. The power supply for the mv-4, I can't find a proper guide on how to construct one of these exactly but I have seen it is possible to use any ATX power supply. I know it's cheaper than buying a used one coming out of an actual Neo Geo cab, but should I go the extra mile and buy the actual Neo Geo cab one? or will any 250watt ATX power supply suffice.
3. Molex connectors, I know where to get them as well as affixing them to the wires, however, how do I know how many I need, the sizes, and number of pin holes on them? is there a chart somewhere, or someone who can help?
4.Coming back to the NeoGeoMVS to JAMMA adapter, What Can I even do with this part I bought. I know JAMMA to NeoGeoMVS is useful to play other PCB games in the Neo Geo cab I'm about to build, but what can I do with this. :/
5. Sound, I know the JAMMA provides Speaker Positive L & R, but does anyone have any recommendation of speakers to buy?
Any tips or comments are very welcome.
Thanks everyone!
