converted carts and system mods

I was just wondering if it was illegal to offer a service where you convert carts and do system mods for people (s-video, stereo). Not saying that I am going to offer it once I get answers about it, just a question I had. Tiptonium makes it painfully obvious that he will not offer any service to convert carts, besides giving the details on how to do it, and thats cool. I have never seen the service offered, besides mas offering it, but $100 seems like alot just to switch a few chips over.

I have a phantom 1 myself and have never even seen a converted cart besides on the net. I dont think there is anything wrong with owning converted carts, Id rather pay $100 or so for a converted metal slug then pay the thousands that it goes for in original AES format.

The question just popped into my head when I was looking thru the neo geo freak web site and saw Crossed Swords 2 AES cart pics, obviously a bootleg. In there defense they were not offering it for sale though. Thanks in advance for any info, again just questions in my head so please no

Yes, it is illegial to pay someone to convert a cart for you as far as I understand. System mods on the other hand are fine to do. Kenny Boy does a great job with system mods, if your looking to get your modded get it done by him.

That's cool, I will look into getting my systems modded by him. Any idea how much it costs for s-video, stereo and bios mods? Or where I can get info about them?

Thanks for the info about converted carts also.

not illegal, just very very unethical....... Unless you sell it as original.

Converting a Cart is no different than putting a 2.2l Chevy Engine inside a Corvette. Then take a 327/350 and put it in a corsica.

Use the search function at the top for "kenny Boy". You will find out info about his mods from that.

I dunno how much it would cost, maybe $175-200?

Wow that is a lot for the mods. That sucks

Can you post a link for the MAS website offering their service?

I've never looked at their website before, I'd like to have a look at it.

Thanks!

I dont know if they still offer the service, it has been a while since I checked it. the url is

massystems.com

im not sure if they do it anymore, I guess you would have to email them to see. Sorry I couldnt be any more help
