    Looking for better picture from CDZ, would this work?

    I agree with all of the comments here. I also have that same CVS287 Scart RGB-to-Component converter and am a huge fan of it. I messed with lots of cheap converters (GBS-8200, Scart-to-HDMI, etc) before finding it, and it is in another league entirely. No lag or filtering at all. Definitely the...

    Metal Slug 2 CD Turbo Released: Slowdown Reduction Patched

    I mentioned this in the MS2 Slowdown Reduction thread but it really deserves its own thread. Raz was able to apply system11's MVS/AES eprom patch to Metal Slug 2 CD and has made it publicly available. Here's the release thread with more info, and here is a direct link so you don't have to...

The players open as a stand-alone music...

    Neo Geo CDZ - No Video Output

    I picked up a CDZ that has no video output. Its RGB is detected and switched to by my scaler but it just produces a black screen. Composite does nothing at all. From what I've read, bad video can be related to CXA1645. Is this likely the case with mine?

    Gone: FREE MSH vs SF CPS-2 Original Front Label

    Update: This has been claimed by ElectricGrave :D I used a hair dryer to remove the label from my suicided multi-cart donor, and it came right off. I thought that I would have trashed it in the process, so instead of tossing it I stuck it to label paper and put it aside for someone. It's free...

    SNES Mini Rgb mod

    I ordered this 5v to 9v DC-DC converter and am going to add it to my Scart/Component converter with a switch for 5v/9v ratio control. It's a bit more expensive at $4, but is a strict 9V output.

    Homemade Holo Labels

    I applied the Shock Troopers mock-holo today, and inlaid an arrow on the front of the 161. The 161 actually looks really nice now. I've given up on trying to capture how good these look in pictures though, it's impossible to show the holo surface effect on a 2D display. All of the smaller text...

    Neo Geo CD: TA7805S Equivalent to lower internal temps?

    I replace the 7805 in Super Nintendos with a OKI-78SR, which gets rid of almost all heat inside the console. Is there a similar direct-replacement for the NGCD's TA7805S? I know that the voltage handling is more complex in the CD, so I'm probably overlooking something. It would be nice to get...

    Homemade Holo Labels

    I came across this Pipilio holographic adhesive film and took a shot at making some holo-style labels. The paper is about $3.00 after shipping (though you'll have to request USPS 1st class from customer service). The labels do look like some kind of genuine product that once existed, but the...
