don't I need a sac cart for that?

hi, so I've tried multiple times with switches in all positions and no dice.... Any ideas as to where to start?

thanks. Unfortunately it's off

Hi all. So I've got an mv1a that's currently dead. Only sign of life is the led on the left side of the board, by the dip switches, lighting up when it's powered up. Nothing on the screen and no sounds. Any ideas where to start? Other than being dead, the board looks in good condition. Some very...

Somebody just paid 120 Euros for a cardboard box...

Just purely talking about looks here, not games or anything else. Was just looking at my Nes the other day and it struck me how cool it looks, kinda like something from star trek. Sure there might be some obscure consoles that look nicer, but of the big ones, I recon the Nes, for me, looks...

http://www.businessinsider.com/conservatives-purposely-making-cars-spew-black-smoke-2014-7 Seriously, this is actually a thing?!?!? What fucking combination of inbreeding and meth abuse does it take to produce assholes who actually think this is a good idea? Absolutely fucking pathetic, hope...

Hello all. My mv1b was in my cab and had a poor 12v connection for a while until the sound failed completely. I've since fixed the 12v line but there's still no sound on the mv1b (It does work with other boards so not the cab). When going through the test screens (accessed from the crosshatch...

So, there's an awful lot of very talented electronics wizards in the tech support forum and I was just wondering if anyone turns their talents to any projects other than games? My first experiments in electronics and soldering were in the musical field (I built a xoxbox (tb303 clone) from a...

http://www.businessinsider.com/ups-fires-250-employees-2014-4 Serious asshole move by management, can't see it working out too well for them.

So what's up with them? Just been thinking and it suddenly occurred to me, what's the point in them? Don't get me wrong, they're cool and all from a collector point of view, but since they were going to be inside an arcade machine and only the operator would see them, briefly, before putting...

Anyone remember this magazine? http://www.compulink.co.uk/~macaction/ Guess probably not, since it was just a uk thing, but I got every copy of it till it folded. (Basically because we had a mac at home, so that was the only choice I had for games, since I couldn't really afford much in the...

Was just looking at a cheap cart on ebay an was seriously considering buying it, until I saw the added import charges. Guy seems to be estimating another $20 to pay for import charges, on top of $25 postage, that's almost as much as the damn game. Not cool and something i've never come across...

Not an actual picture of mine, but got the same colour and model. Only started driving a couple of years ago so bought myself a golf gti mk3. Got at least 3 unfixable oil leaks, gets seriously steamed up when it rains, the passenger window doesn't work and I put my finger through the bodywork...

Soo, just turned on the tv and they had one of the channel 4 logos come on, one based in Tokyo, and in the background there's a big neon sign with the pins and ball from league bowling. Surprised such an old game is still popular enough to have a big sign out there, although I spose it could...
