...as my hyper Neo Geo 64 board heated up the interior of my SNK, MVS 4-Slot cabinet! Man, the switch out was certainly brain dead easy. I was worried for a sec as I was TEMPORARILLY removing my four slot board from the cabinet. There are a lot of extra, non JAMMA connecter pieces coming off of a dedicated 4 slot cab. After opening up my trusty 4-Slot manual, I realized NONE OF THEM were needed to play. WOO HOO! Just clip on the JAMMA and go.

The only thing I need to do is figure out what dip settings mean what (like the free play setting) and then take the time to wire a test button. Unfortunately, the test button wired into my cab is not the same pin match for the Hyper. What the hell? That seems pretty short sighted. Wasn't the original plan for the Hyper to be a switch out for the MVS cabs?

Anyway, I am jazzed and thanks to Trunks for selling it to me at a great price with ALL FOUR games! Thus far I have only played SS64 2 and Real Bout. I'll try and get the other two into the cab tomorrow and give them a test run.

If your talking about the dip switches on the bottom of the hyper board, DONT TOUCH THEM. They aren't dip switches.

The hyper boards options are all internal. Wire up pin 25 on your jamma harness to a button. What I do is, when my hyper boards plugged into my cab, I have a street fighter 6 button layout, I just wire pin 25 up to the feirce kick button (Which isn't used when I play SNK games) and get into options that way.

And that "Everyone" would be Shawn? hehe. it's just so easy being a pain in shawns ass. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

The switches on the bottom probobly have to do with the other connections on the hyper board. Non of which are used, I think it's mostley stuff that you'd use in a custom Hyper 64 cabinet, for the LCD screen, stereo sound setup in the cab, other misc stuff.

You won't need to touch it, all options are in the board.
