so why no one made a guide or something?


It's not subject matter than can be explained in a 5 min You Tube Video or a few post on a forum or message board, and there too much info to be even feasible on instructibles.

If its a stock system then it will play in AES mode so you cant put credits in. If you have a Unibios you can set the console to Arcade mode and then use select to add coins.

I wonder what number that 100-unit run is up to at this point...

Probably like 175 or so. Originally he only limited it to 100 units since he didn't think he would even sell that many.

I like how it claims " However, Gun Lord does NOT work with the Daedalus (or any other converter)" when a screenshot of GunLord is printed on the box of the converter.

It sounds like you may have the memory card in your system. This is a known issue with using a 161 multi cart and any memory card.

From what I remember Gunlord does work, you might have to flip the switch on the converter. I remember David saying that the switch that helps make MSX works also stops NGDEV games from working.

Can anyone confirm that?

There are multiple versions of Gun Lord (earlier version has infinite snake laser, updated version and homecart uses a gauge for its power, the lower the gauge the shorter it is). Maybe it would work only with a specific version?

This does not work on AES consoles. I have a CMVS and an AES+converter, the trick works only on my CMVS, not on the AES, using the same cart.

Is there any way to revert to a previous version if you dislike the new one for any reason?

Absolutely.

So to put this as mildly as possible...
The question isn't CAN "NeoDev" make a new update that corrects compatibility problems, but rather WILL they do so.

Of course not. NeoDev always says their product is 100% compatible once it's made and sold. If they make an update it would just confirm them as liars.

To be fair, if I were a developer I wouldn't consider a MVS cart not working on a non-MVS system with a converter to be a major issue. I'd tell them to buy the home cart.

Of course, I would probably make more than 7 home carts per release.

Tried both with UniBIOS on both systems (2.3 and 3.1), CMVS with original BIOS and AES with original (Japan and Euro) BIOS. Exact same results: trick works on CMVS, not on AES+converter.

Regards.
