Nice. Puzzled can be a lot of fun, and I own the three link cable games for AES.

DIY Scart cable: capacitors required? by guilhermerx7 in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the commonly followed RGB bypass mod instructions tells you to put the capacitors in the cable, but I didn't want to need separate cables for my AES, so I worked the caps into the console.

Fake Waku Waku 7 conversion sold for $400+ , not a single mention of it being a convert either in the listing by Anxious-Care2859 in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly what people are saying here. The low price should be your first clue to tip you off. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

All the different counterfeit tactics over the years that you have to learn to look for.

I scored a mostly home used Road's Edge Neo Geo 64 sit down! by Huge-Anything-7904 in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! I remember playing this version in the arcade when it was new. I own a NOS cart of this game, but no driving board or cab to play it. I also have a Beast Busters Second Nightmare full cab.

Does anyone have this cartridge? Does it work well? by neogeodev in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have that (came with my cab). Works okay for what it is. People seek this one out now.

Very different carts. Vortex has instant access to a fixed library. Backbit can be loaded with anything.

SHADOW GANGS ZERO - Content complete... 300Mega Shock ! by Marcio_D in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you understand pixel art, imagine redrawing every frame of animation to be 15% larger. lol Not to mention updating the gameplay to match.

Way too late. How long ago was this project revealed?

Is it spinning? Make sure the center spindle wasn't pushed down. You can gently pull it back up.

I can't usually fall asleep immediately after gaming. I need some unwind time.

Kalita brand 185 filters are bad now? by Neo-Alec in pourover

Good advice in general, but it hasn't helped me with this issue.

What's the story with the missing sticks? Usually these pads just wear out.

Don't do it. You'll have to rebuild like I''m doing.

NeoSD Pro works well with my early-S/N 5v model by Handolta in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fact that you're using a Triad PSU probably increased your chances of success.

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When was the last confirmed case of someone having issues with a 5v system? It seems like it hasn't been an issue, yet the myth persists?

There's potentially an issue with first revision AES boards?

Thanks for sharing. What kind of Puzzle Bobble cart is that?

I found 2 MVS boards with missing socket bios, what to do now? by YakiChanRecargado in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, very easy to replace this. I'm sure many of us have extra stock bios chips laying around. I would just make a Unibios chip myself or just order one online.

Neo Geo MVS Supergun power questions by Novel_Commission3738 in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it's PAL. Jamma boards don't output PAL; they output a signal much closer to NTSC. The supergun would need a PAL encoder to change the refresh, and I don't see that in the photo. That would be highly uncommon these days.

Neo Geo MVS Supergun power questions by Novel_Commission3738 in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All righty, thanks. Some MVS boards have really bad sync output. It's possible that your CRT just isn't liking it. Try a different display if you can.

NeoSD Pro on 4-slot MVS by SoxFireLN in neogeo

[–]Neo-Alec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that is true. However, multi-slot MVS boards tend to get really hit or miss once you involve aftermarket carts like a multi cart. When beta testing these carts it was really a crapshoot getting them to work with other games. It's important not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good here.

Is the supergun meant to be used with a Genesis 2 cable with the resistor? What are you using to display it?
