Well, after considering my options with an AES, NeoCD or CDZ, I've decided MVS is the way to go. My only question now is how difficult is it to hook a slot 1 MVS or Mini-MVS up to a TV? Are the video adapters expensive? How would I use standard neo Joysticks?

you basically have to build/buy a supergun. It's basicallly a RGB to TV (NTSC or PAL) converter, with joysticks. You could build one, but I know www.jrok.com has the circuit premade (NTSC) it you don't want to solder it yourself. After that, you just have to do the woodworking for the system and the joysticks (www.arcadeparts.com for joystick parts), its really not that hard. But if you really don't want to build it, you can buy one from www.massystems.com
I'm building one of these right now, it's a lot of fun. I'll be posting exactly how to make it when I'm done (hopefully before the end of July).

Peace

to use standard neo stick you could just use the controller ports on the mvs board, or you can make a connector with the same pinout as the neo controllers and hook that up to the jamma harness if you intend on playing other pcb's.

also, if you want to build sticks or just get general arcade parts, i would also reccomend happcontrols.com, very fast and reliable
