Panzer Fight Stick 3: NG Video for your viewing pleasure. Better to shoot some video and show it off vs. just some static pictures. It's a Panzer Fight Stick twisted with all of the NEO-GEO layouts. Awhile back coin-ops in Japan did a similar thing but with a little less pizzazz using mech...

What is Project Kajitsu? Project Kajitsu (Kajitsu is Japanese for Berry) is the brain child of Mike Wolak and Jasen Hicks based on the $35 Raspberry Pi B+ Model. The goal was to use the Raspberry Pi with a custom Pi Hat / Linux kernel and turn 2 ordinary PS3 or XBOX360 controllers into 2...

I've been working on some neat projects behind the scenes with a fellow member and friends and will be posting them up slowly as we get them done. The idea is to release these "widgets" so you can take the files and get them made up or use them in your designs as needed. Typically, these are...

Some more awesomeness!

Check out the labels! Opt2Not gets the artistic credit, Travis gets the group buy credit... I just wanted to help :)

Good afternoon all! Since this is actually NEO-GEO related, I decide to create a special thread for it under the SNK Category. I have reproduced the NEO-GEO Metal Covers and created custom metal bases for each of the MVS 2 Slot, and 4 Slot boards. They are custom built to order and power...

After going to Japan and playing them again, I really want one! I love my Kraylix, but there's just something great about the original. I've started working with a company to see the cost to get one to the states. Turns out its just as expensive based on my research, to ship a full container as...

Got one of the 4 Slot drawings done! This is the Wider MVS-4 case, drawing only obviously. For the base we ensured that each cart slot had a stand off associated so that when its all buttoned up and together there is a lot of support making flex a non-issue.

Running a "Photo Contest" on my Facebook Page. You design a sweet graphic to apply to one of my MV-2F Reproduction Covers (NEO-GEO inspired of course) and upload it for a vote. Most votes wins a prize. What's the prize? Its a surprise! Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/jasenscustoms Contest...

Got it home today. This is going to be an epic project.

Should have the CMVS ready case by the end of the week. Stand Offs internal to the cover for a NEOBITZ, JROK Sync Cleaner, and one of my Custom Audio Attenuation Circuits (Not super custom, just a simple PCB with the Audio Attenuation circuit traced out minus the switch) Component...

I am getting my Big Red on Monday and the wife said I had to get rid of one of my cabinets... makes sense to get rid of my Converted Blasteroids Cabinet when I am getting an authentic NEO Big Red. I redid the outside and cleaned a lot of the wiring up inside as well as put a new coin door on...

Looking for the larger MV-2 (not the MV-2F) this time so that I can accurately reproduce it's cover. Cover MUST be in good, straight, rust free condition as I need to obtain accurate dimensions. I really don't NEED it (I have 6 boards floating around my house in 1,2,4 slot combos) but I really...

Just scored a working MVS 4 Slot Version 3 Cab for $365! It needs a little TLC but it's in a good condition overall.

Yup, I finally get to go back after a few years of waiting. Fortunately, work is sending me this time (Hooyah Navy!) so I get to spend a little bit more money since the airfare is covered :-D I plan on hitting up MAK Japan, but where else should I look to go? Keep in mind I've seen the palaces...
