cycles manually no problem with the game select button, but when you walk away from the cab, at least in my experience, it does not cycle.

I hoped it cycled automatically, not just manually. Jeff, any thoughts??

IIRC KotM in freeplay doesn't cycle automatically. Is the cab set on freeplay?

My cab is set to freeplay. But I don't have Knight's Chance to test :)

This one cab is loaded with NG Dev games! No problem with automatic cycle. I'll know more once I receive Knight's Chance since I barely ordered tonight.

King of the Monsters gets stuck in compulsion when it's in Free Play, so it's actually a lot worse. It will sit on the start screen in 30 second countdown, then drop into a game, rinse-repeat.

This sounds like a different problem. When my cart gets here I'll run it through some combos in a multi-slot. If it's playing the attract screen, at least, that's way more compatible than KotM in free play ;)

If it doesn't swap games at all, free play or not, then that's similar to the NG Dev titles. Most of them have trouble in multi cart configurations. I was actually wondering if anyone tried that yet. I'll run it through some combos when my cart gets here.

Yeah, tried with free play and without, same result.

I have all the ngdev releases, but have only tried pairing KC with NEO XYX so far. They play nice together, save for the cycling issue.

You are right though, there are a bunch of cart configurations with ngdev titles that don't work at all. Especially with late release, larger meg counts games.

The fact that KC doesn't cycle with Pulstar confirms its not just a NGdev combo issue though.

I love the visuals, sound and presentation...but I just can't enjoy a gambling game. I know if I buy it, I would put it on the shelf in 10 minutes. Great looking game though.

My Knight's Chance isn't cycling in my 2 slot, it's currently paired with Metal Slug 4. Im kinda ok with it for now though, the attract is so good.

No prob dude. I'm trying to give Jeff as much publicity as possible. The more people who check out these games, the more our odds of getting new ones increase :) Glad you enjoyed the review.

The game is 132 Megs. The old photos were mock ups before we knew the final count.

Let me know if you need some artwork for the shock insert. I can provide you with nice clean logos and whatnot so that you don't have to spend hours cleaning up scanned images. Drop me an email at jkurtz01@gmail.com.

Hey JMKurtz,

Is the final Meg count 132, or 202?

I want to make sure my Shock inserts are legit...

Thanks!,
Ben

I did test game cycling with the select button but I don't think I ever tested it with it just sitting there to see what it would do.

Thanks! Paiku already hooked me up :mr_t:

EDIT: SHOCK inserts (now with the correct Meg count) are here (http://www.legeekretrogaming.com/geekblog/?page_id=245) if anyone wants 'em.

Cheers,
Ben

They look great but I do not like the SNK logo on them.
