I want to build a consolized MVS. I’m not really sure about how to go about this; I have zero experience with arcade machines. I have searched the forum and found this site http://dasfool.aroo.tv/Index.html which was helpful. I just need some basic advice, like which motherboard to use, how to output the video to a TV, etc….. Any helpful information is appreciated. Thanks!
Help...I want to build a consolized MVS.

great site there. Just follow the instructions, sans the video; buy a jrok instead for excellent s-video output. I'd go the supergun route, instead of consolizing a mvs motherboard. If you have a hdtv, avoid the 4 slots at all costs and get a mv1fz. Otherwise, motherboard revisions don't much matter.

I don't know much about HDTV compatability, but on my flat screen I swear to god that of all of the boards I have ever used, a MV1-C produced the best picture...
Maybe it was just me, it just seemed to look better.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. All I need to get this working is 1) MV1-C 2) JAMMA harness 3) Power Supply 4) Video convertor.
Will the harness just plug in to everything? It can't be that easy...can it?
I have a standard CRT TV.

dont' forget about an attenuation curcuit, all of the audio and video jacks, the power switch, an LED, a pause hook-up, some controller ports, and something to mount it all in.
and I am sure I forgot something....
Oh, and that's a consolized mv-1c in my icon

no offense, but it's most likely too hard for guys like you, if you have to ask such questions.Neo Ash said:
