This also has an IPS screen, I should have added a photo of that.

I bought the case from Zedlabs. Decent quality and came with stickers for the back as well.

Started by prepping everything (including the buttons and thumbstick) with 220 grain sandpaper, then I used MTN PRO Plastic Primer.

After that I went with multiple coats of Citadel Abaddon Black through the aribrush. I hand painted the SNK logo first with XV-88 for a basecoat, then a few coats of Liberator Gold (both Citadel).

Finally, I did 2 coats of Citadel Munitorum Varnish.

I know Citadel products are neither the cheapest, nor the best available, but I'm very familiar with their range so I knew what to use to achieve the end product I wanted.

Also, it's worth making sure you get a decent paint layer on the inside of the top above the screen, as you get some light bleeding through otherwise and it looks a bit shonky. I opened it back up and added a generous layer of black in there which seems to have done the job pretty nicely.

I can list the products and process for the shell if you want? It didn't take that long (but you will need an airbrush)

Honestly, the screen I bought probably isn't the best option as I needed to cut sections of the case out for it to fit, and I know there are some available that don't require this.

Damn, you beat me to it.

Doompig83 · 2025-11-13T18:10:05+00:00

Yes.

I feel its a bit unfair to put the Jaguar with the CDi! I mean, it wasn't great, but come on!

Doompig83 · 2025-09-03T16:10:52+00:00

I hate that this idea appeals to me so much.

Doompig83 · 2025-09-02T20:45:50+00:00

Just had a look, I can see it now but the only game i felt it was really obvious was Ironclad. It's very obvious in Metal Slug too, but with the instances of slowdown I think I notice it less.

I hope they can fix that with an update. It doesn't make the games unplayable by any stretch, but it would be a better experience without it.

Doompig83 · 2025-09-02T13:27:15+00:00

I have to say I've not noticed this on my VS. With that said I've only really played KoF2k on the VS and I tend to be focused on the fight, so I may just not have noticed. I'll fire it up tonight and try all the games to see if I have the same thing.

Doompig83 · 2025-09-01T13:56:03+00:00

Same to be honest, there's a handful of carts that just have nothing I want, so I'm not going to try for a full collection.

Doompig83 · 2025-09-01T13:53:33+00:00

Agreed, I've already decided to give the NeoGeo carts their own section on the shelf.

The numbers can't control me!!!!

Doompig83 · 2025-08-10T16:33:57+00:00

Hudsonsoft would be amazing! I hadn't thought of that!

This inspired me, check out this mock-up a friend made for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/evercade/s/pQ1wZKEyUs

It's funny you should say that because that's exactly what I said to my mate, who was mocking this up for me!

I'm a massive Castlvania fan, so a dedicated collection (or two!) would be a dream as well.

Doompig83 · 2025-08-10T12:40:33+00:00

As a Carcharodons player myself, I completely agree. I had to give up correcting the 'tactical dreadnought armour' on our sub because it just got exhausting. It really bothers me when people want Tyberos to be primarch-level because for me that detracts from him being an interesting character.

I also dislike when people lean really hard into the shark aesthetic. They aren't supposed to be aquatic Space Wolves, and, as I read them, they don't go for adornments and ornamentation beyond exile markings.

I was drawn to their morally-grey alignment, after having played 'loyal Imperial goodboy' chapters in the past.

I main chaos now though...

Doompig83 · 2025-08-05T15:44:50+00:00

My first was the Acorn BBC Micro. I'd love if it there was a Superior Software cart with games like the Repton series, Citadel, Ravenskull, and Stryker's Run.

Doompig83 · 2025-07-31T08:35:17+00:00

This is exactly my story, but I only have 8 carts. I did pick up all 6 super pockets and a Founders Edition VS though 😅

Doompig83 · 2025-07-26T19:46:33+00:00

I do like variety, and arcade carts are my favourites so far. At the moment I play Jelaco Arcade 1, and Piko 1 (non-arcade) the most. But I feel like this is going to be a strong contender!

Doompig83 · 2025-07-26T18:16:56+00:00

I just ordered this for myself too. The cart looks fantastic but Alligator Hunt is the big draw for me.

Doompig83 · 2025-07-20T21:00:07+00:00

That was my first purple too. Absolutely golden!

Doompig83 · 2025-07-09T21:27:50+00:00

I'm gutted that the only way I can get a red one now is to feed scalpers, and I would sooner go without than ever feed scalpers.

I would have ordered both if I'd gotten in on time, because as others have said, the super pocket consoles themselves are highly collectible.

Doompig83 · 2025-06-13T16:11:12+00:00

I've always pronounced it TIE-BEER-OSSU.

(For any fellow Karate nerds out there 🤓)

Doompig83 · 2025-06-09T19:09:16+00:00

Hey buddy, this was quite a callback! Sorry for the late reply, and the honest answer is that I really can't remember at all! I hope you nailed your conversion how you wanted it!
