    Booting my MVS after 10 yrs, need some help

    I got my MVS 2slot out of storage recently and I'm having trouble booting up games. I'm hoping this isn't a big issue as it appears to be working for the most part. Every time on boot, it just keeps cycling between the hardware tests/settings and never starts a game. I tried plugging in just 1...

    Taito Type X2 Hacked to run on Windows.

    I read this on GAF today and was surprised no one posted it here. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=385813 I've seen this posted at a few forums since, so it seems legit. :(

    Converting Street Fighter to Hyper Street Fighter, need help

    I just got my Hyper Mobo in and switched it into my Street Fighter 1 cab. On the SF1 board, there were two additional molex connections on either side of the main Jamma connection, there are no such connections on the Hyper mobo. I plugged in the main Jamma connection and the cab won't turn on...

    Help with CPS1 conversion

    I've had this SF1 cab (normal CP, not the pressure sensitive pads) for awhile now, and the game sucks hard. I want to put in CE or Hyper and need some help. Is SF1 JAMMA? I know it isnt CPS. Would I need anything other than a new game board? Finally, do CPS1 games have a suicide battery? Thanks.

    KOF PSP themes

    I just whipped up a few themes for my PSP and decided to share. This was the most applicable forum I could think of. Pretty basic, but my favorite of the bunch. I think the screens are a bit too busy, but my friend liked this one so I uploaded it too. I spent awhile on the flame-like...

    CMVS with Component & playing fighters

    I got a friend who may sell me a spare MVS-2F in a few days, since I got a 2F cab already I want to consolize this with all the latest doo-dads. My main concern is about possible input lag if running the Neo through component. Has anyone tested this already? Most games that are intended for CRT...

    Unlcoking Garou bosses on the MVS?

    I really want to start dicking around with Kain and Grant. I'm playing on a standard US bios machine, please tell me this can be done!

    A few simple MVS questions, take a peek.

    I have a few general MVS questions. Just so you know I have a 2-slot woody with a standard USA bios. I noticed the first hard dip is "settings mode" and it is off. What does this do? And where exactly are my hard dips? Another thing is my screen is stretched a bit too much and I can't see the...

    Converting a cabinet into a better cabinet

    I just came across a Street Fighter cabinet that can be all mine for the price of free. I thought I might be able to make a tidy profit off of it but SF1 is terrible and worthless. I assume it's in a JAMMA cab, so I want to put a CPS2 motherboard in it and get games worth playing. Are there any...

    Super 8-in-1 carts.

    Can anyone disclose the origin of carts such as this? Are these the Neo-Geo equivalent of the x-in-1s for the NES? Should I expect KOF 2005 Special to be KOF 95' and King of Gladiator to be Art of Fighting with a Russell Crowe palette swap? I have a kind of perverse interest in these types of...

    What type of stick do you prefer for fighters?

    I got some Happ comp sticks on my MVS, but I like my 360 Hori stick much better. I like the short balltop that you hold like a wine glass, I like that it feels a lot looser than most sticks. I'm on the fence about the square gate, I like it better than the fluid 360 motion of the Happ, but I...

    What do I need to buy when a button stops working?

    I was just about to buy some sticks when my room mate told me the "Select Game" button stopped working. Do I just need a cherry microswitch or could it be something else?
