Hello,
I picked up this system recently off of eBay and it came with 3 games(Ghost Pilots, Samurai Showdown and World Heroes Jet - all 3 US cartridges).
Anyway, I hooked up the system and noticed that the video output connector seemed a bit loose. I ordered a replacement cable off of Amazon. Once I got the system hooked up, it makes the usual Neo chime.. although the screen either starts off all blue(and stays that way) or no video at all. If I “jiggle” the video connector, the video kicks in and works fine(but will occasionally reboot on it’s own when I do this).
I decided to open up the system and found some sort of ground cable that had been clipped. It looks like all the capacitors are okay.. but there’s hot glue residue in various places. Here’s a couple of photos I took.
Does anyone know anyone reputable who can repair this system? Possibly even do the video mods and install the UNIBIOS chip? I’m in Encinitas, CA.
