I am considering on buying one, but I don't know which one to buy. It is between massystems, Great western, or I have heard of a sigma one. Any of you guys out there have any advice on which ones are the best out of all the superguns that are out there? I need some help with this one!

If i were you SHO i would get the uberia minigun its a great price since you live in uk. remember u need a mvs mother board to play mvs games, also u will need to buy neogeo controller and sticks to work on the super gun.

MV-1A PCB, MV-1C PCB, MV-1FZ PCB, are the best ones for you

I am sorry, but are you just stupid?


What makes American built SGs crap and way too expensive? You have to take into account the extra cost that goes into the RGB to S-video (or Composite) encoder that has to be added so that they can be used on our tv's.

I take quite a bit of offense from that statement you made.

I'll say it too: American superguns are garbage. Both the HGA and Super Nova are poorly built pieces of junk. Unfortunately, because they're the only ones on the market, people still buy them.

$300 is still be a fair price, though, although I wouldn't personally pay that much for something that's as poorly made what MAS & GWT turn out. If you've ever tried to build a professional-quality supergun yourself, you'll understand that a lot of work & expense goes into it.

Err...I wasn't actually referring to the MAS or GWT unit as I know they are crap. I was referring more to his broad "American SuperGuns are crap" reference. Like all SGs made in the USA are crap, since many of us build them as a hobby.

My statement was more towards the DIY community.

Well, when you really think about the price of the Mas systems arcade sticks.... that IMO, are one of the best arcade sticks available anywhere!....

Which sell at about $115-$125 each....

The Mas systems actual supergun component only costs about $50-$75

IMO, that's not very expensive at all...... so even if it is poorly made..... you're getting what you pay for and then some,imo.

A few members here own a Super Nova and they seem happy with theirs. I plan on getting one myself in a month or two. Broken, why do you think they suck?

get the super nova system and ask them to make a auxillery cable for neo geo games so you have all 4 buttons.

IMO i would get hard spring or perfect 360 if you have the money for them,and japanese style buttons. they are rounded buttons not caved in.
