I’m helping someone local get their Neo Geo MVS (which I have no experience) up and working. He has a cabinet, but no PCB and no marquee lights.
As I understand it, and have found in the online manuals, there’s a difference between the harnesses of 1-slot, 2-slot, and 4-slot and seems his is wired for a 1-slot (includes the extra memory harness), but the label and manual states 4 slot. The marquee is only for 1-slot. There is a “select game” button, which leads me to believe this was originally a 4-slot
I have a source that can supply either a 2-slot or 4-slot PCB (working). My questions:
1. Should I get a 4-slot or 2-slot PCB? Will it work in his cabinet?
2. Besides the JAMMA harness, there's two (2) other harness, which look like the 1-slot harness for the expansion board. Will a 4-slot work in this case? Do I need an expansion board?
