mvs 150 in 1 cart ????

[FrizzleFried]

just got the cart and was able to try out a few games before I had to leave for work. I did notice half of the games I've tried so far have sound issues, distorted, clipping, music cuts out, etc. Some of of the older games i tried didn't seem to have this issue though.. not sure how normal this is. It's in my 2 slot MVS. I guess i'll try taking out the 2nd cart and try each slot independently to see if that helps at all.

Not normal. None of the games I've tried on my cart exhibited blatant sound issues. Sure... some may have a sound effect off or something... I am not sure... as most of these games I am trying for the first time, but there surely aren't any "missing music" or other extremely obvious issues.

looks like just taking out the 2nd cart fixed the sound issues.

One thing I HAVE noticed with the 150-in-1... they take over the on-board memory of the MVS. By that, what I mean is that I can set the soft dips on the 150-in-1 and it will save them... so far MANY MANY more than 8 that I was told it would save... at least 2 dozen thus far... which is good.

The bad thing is that the other 3 carts get screwed. I can not save soft-dip settings nor any high scores on the other 3 carts. My hypothesis is that the 150-in-1 takes the whole memory that would be used for the soft-dips and high scores normally to store more soft-dips only for the 150-in-1 (it does not save high scores at all)... but what do I know.

 

[SNKorSWM]

The reason why carts in the other 3 slots won't have their high scores or dip setting saved is because every time you choose a title from the multicart menu, the multicart wipes the backup RAM clean.

That makes sense. Does it store it's own Soft Dips on a chip in it's own cart that it loads in every time or something?

Can you use a memory card with the 150 in 1 cart??

Can you use a memory card with the 150 in 1 cart??

yes

 

[MegaGraffin]

Does anyone know if the 150 in 1 multicart works with the Phatom1 converter?

Ok, read most of this thread just now. I've a MVS1B board and from what I read the 138 cart looks the best as you can apparently remove all the games you don't want off the menus, yes? There's only about 19 games i'm interested on the cart so would prefer to just have these as options. Can someone explain how to only show the games you want on each bootup - someone posted a quote of how to do it but the English was so bad it didn't make sense!

Also, how long is the board in relation to the motherboard, is it quite small?

Concern I have though is someone also posted that this extra board pulls more amperage off the system, if this is the case, how much are we talking about as extra? (i'm not using a computer PSU for intended powering but regulators off one DC adaptor, so this might be relevant and make a difference between 138 and 150 cart).

@MegaGraffin

Yes, it works. I tested it months ago with the Phantom 1 Converter. But what i have to say is, that after i while using this 150 in 1 Multicard games show error like Metal Slug 6, level stops suddenly, there are also Sound problems, so be shure you buy not the original it is just a copy.

I have a MV-1F board and i bought the 150 in 1 cart, it just will not store any high scores once the machine is switched off, when machine is switched back on it goes back to the game selection screen as well, a bit disapointing as it would have been nice to come back on with the game last played with high scores.
My back up battery is good!

But overall good value and loads of games!

That is correct. High scores are not saved because the memory is flushed each time you select another game. One benefit is that it seems to store soft dips for a TON of games...

Quick question on the 150in1 cart... what level of difficulty are the games set on?

I am asking because I have a 111in1 and all games are on LEVEL8. Which kinda sucks.

the 111in1 has no difficulty adjustment? I just figured out how to adjust difficulty on the 120in1, you have to flip the 4 and 5 dips on the console.

[Dr Shroom]

Which KoFs keep resetting? I have the same problem with my Metal Slug X cart and I can't figure out what the hell is the problem is.

Edit: Metal Slug 4 doesn't work either on a 10V console.

Now there's a 161-in-1

[ttooddddyy]

Far too many + games, Ive always found them a shitty version of the original.

 

[SNKorSWM]

We should be seeing a price drop of the 150-in-1 very soon.

Only 43 KoF games man .
Im abit dissapointed theres only 11 more games though, you thought they might have made it 175-1 or something.

 

[valgalder]

definitely not worth it, if you already have a 150. Still no Sengoku 2 or Shock Troopers, Magician Lord, Nam, Ninja Combat... just a bunch of stupid KOF hacks

 

[Xian Xi]

I still don't understand why they make these with so many hacks. I bet if they made these 150-in-1 carts with all legit games people would pay easily $2 per game.

 

[Xian Xi]

Looks like the 150-in-1 can be expanded much further.

Currently the 150 uses 14 C roms, 3 P roms and 5 V roms. The cart PCBs have empty slots though, 3 P roms, 3 V roms and 12 C roms. So it defenitely can hold the entire Neo library plus homebrews.

 

[Syn]

They still haven't added the games I want...yet!

Except for Magician Lord, every other title in your list in included in the 138-in-1.
