    MVS -> Jamma converter

    Hi all, I have an MVS cabinet, and would like to run some jamma boards in it sometimes. Unfortunately I'm having trouble getting google give me good search results for running jamma in a MVS cabinet, most results give me the other way. The potentially damaging difference in the wiring is the...

    Replacing my monitor thread part a million

    Hey I know I make one of these threads every few months, but this time I've made actual, real progress! I bought a used 19" monitor off Craigslist, so now I'm going to ask some new questions. What do I need to know before I start swapping the old monitor out with the new one? Uh... there will...

    RGB to s-video / composite idea

    I'm building another supergun, which of course means I need another video encoder. I have the parts from Digikey to build the one here ( http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/28/how-to-consolize-an-arcade-game/ ), but then I realized I might have another option. Old game systems like the Genesis are...

    Replacing the monitor in my converted Data East cab

    I've been casually searching craigslist off and on for something I can use to replace the monitor in my cab and have had no luck the past couple months. Anyone have any good tips for getting a replacement monitor? For the short term I'm hoping to find a $30 or less solution for fixing this, but...

    Did I break my monitor?

    I accidently elbowed this when switching out a game in my cab. It made a hissing noise for a bit. I don't want to turn my cab on in case horrible things happen, anyone know how much I just fucked up?

    '80s games + broken 2 slot MVS board + more

    Hey, so I'm expanding my search radius for buyers for stuff I want to get rid of to the NEO forums (don't worry you guys are awesome and are my first internet choice for sales, I was hoping for more local pickup bites). I have set up a Google docs spreadsheet (thanks to fakeXsound for this...

    Running an internet garage sale

    Hey, so I figured the NEO forums would be a good place to ask this because you guys sell shit online all the time. I have a large collection of stuff (gaming, non-gaming) that I want to sell / give-away. My current plan of attack was to more or less catalog a lot of it, then build a database of...

    fully wired JAMMA extension

    Anyone know where I can find one? Making one myself is kind of out of the question for now, I don't have room to do any work in my apartment. I made a thread on this a while back, but apparently this forum only has 3 pages now.

    Horrible Conversions

    Not all horrible machines are MAMEcabs, sometimes a braindead arcade owner decides that his racing game isn't making him the fat cash it used to, and kids love Tekken, so you get this... Saw this at the Super Mall yesterday. What other horrible conversions have you guys seen?

    JAMMA extender options

    So now that I'm domesticated, I can't have the arcade cabinet pulled out a few feet from the wall to easily get in and switch out boards. Also, I don't have the time I used to for building stuff myself anymore, so I'm looking for good extender options. My cab is wired for JAMMA with 4th button...

    Trimming down collections

    I'm going to be moving in a few months, which of course got me to thinking about trimming the fat in my collection. I know many of you here do this, that's what a bunch of the threads in the for sale forums seem to be about. The problem I am noticing with this is... anything I don't want is...

    SegaSonic the Hedgehog

    I hadn't heard about this game until today, and I'm kind of surprised. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0Qr0kSXGEg Anyone know how rare this board is? It seems like it would be a cool one to own, if I ever get a trackball setup.

    What else do you use your arcade hardware skills on?

    I play guitar poorly, and spend more time fiddling with effects than actually playing, so I decided to check out how effects pedals are built. Turns out it's very similar to the supergun stuff I fucked around with last year, and I already own all the tools I need to make my own. A google search...

    Mr. Driller series

    What are the big differences between Mr. Driller, Mr. Driller 2, and Mr. Driller G? I'd love to pick up a Mr. Driller board, but can't find good info on the differences between the three on KLOV or Wikipedia. Dug around a bit more and found this ...

    UK PS2 games in the US

    So there are a couple (terrible / awesome) games we've been playing the Japanese versions of, and it would be cool to play through them in English, because they've come out in the UK at some point. Specifically "Zombie VS Ambulance" (or Zombie Virus) ...
