Hello all,

I recently consolized a MV-1B unit and would like to share my pictures. I hope my pictures can help other people who are interested in consolizing their MV-1Bs. This unit was originally the Irritating Maze motherboard. This is to show that it is possible to consolize a MV-1B. However, I would like to comment that it was a very tight fit.

Here are the list of parts/modifications:

Power: 5 pin din and SC200 tabletop power supply
Audio: Stereo modification and small circuit
Video: Craze Arcade R2N video encoder using S-video
Bios: Universe Bios 2.1 and external chip socket
Controls: DB15 ports

Pictures:

MV-1B with cartridge inside. Its funny that the game is bigger than the system.

Definite big thanks to Razoola for the instructions, chip leg pin outs, and pictures on installing a Universe Bios on a MV-1B on his website.

Thanks to MKL for providing the stereo points on the MV-1B in a thread.

Thanks to JMKurtz for providing a stereo circuit on his website.

What are those worms crawling out of it? ;)

I really like the placement of the Unibios. Good idea.

I like the fact that it is so small and compact.

That looks great!

You mentioned that you had a video encoder in there? Where the hell did you fit it?

I hope you know you're making my peanus hard looking at this... That and I'll probably own a MV-1B in a couple weeks.

Shame on you!

This is very nice I like it alot, Though maybe it would slightly complicate things, I would have tried to add the ability of RGB out as well as S-video. Maybe a custom Din port that carries both and a dongle wire for svideo and one for rgb to switch between the two. That is if space is an issue. Other wise very nice!

Like someone said earlier I love the placement of the Bios incase you need to upgrade or swap :D

Respect the work man!
