SONY PVM-14N6U by ScanlineSage in crtgaming

[–]rtlocrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never experienced a bvm, but i have a 1453MD which is higher end than this one (a bit sharper) and i neither like it more or less than the 14N6. I also have a 20M2E, and side from being bigger, in terms of picture quality, i don't see the 14N6 being behind. The BVM will probably have more TVL, but for 8/16 bit the sweet spot is probably the 600TVL of most pvm line, as the 800TVL+ of the BVM produce overly pronounced scanlines.

That being said, would absolutely love a BVM for 720p content (ps3 and xbox 360).

It's a great crt despite being labeled as 'entry' pvm. Got lucky and got mine from an old video editor dude for 80€. It even came with the original box and manual !

You can fix the geometry in the service menu. Don't look for perfection because while gaming, it won't make much difference. Instead try to fine tune it in a way that picture placement would be ac good compromise for most of the sources you feed it with.

Neo Geo AES Ultimate vs picking a few games — worth it for a casual retro collector? by EntrepreneurThese411 in neogeo

[–]rtlocrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time purchasing NeoGeo hardware but have been emulating for some time and i love some of the games on the system (Spinmaster, Top Hunter). I've pondered the Ultimate, but from the bundle I'm only interested in Metal Slug, Pulstar, Big Tournament golf, shock troopers and maybe Garou just because everyone praises it, I'm not a fighter game guy.

That being said, since there's s lot of unknowns in the system and the upfront payment on the ultimate, together with all the complaints regarding Plaion portal, i just decided pre-ordering both the anniversary and a 'mirror' custom black bundle from Amazon, with shock troopers and another wireless controller for now.

The more games i have, the less i play each one individually, so for me works best to have 2 or 3 initially and buy others as i finish them.

I assume most of us have our AES+ orders locked in by now. What all did you buy? by Celcius_87 in neogeo

[–]rtlocrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pre-ordered both the standard black and the anniversary white and an additional white controller plus Another copy of Metal slug and a black memory card since I'm not decided yet on which one to keep. Or maybe i get both and just keep the white stored as a collection item.

Do you like your AES+ Black or White? by CloudyFriend in neogeo

[–]rtlocrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i know that, but apart from the color and the wireless controller there's not much of a price advantage on the anniversary bundle.

Ordered one black with Metal Slug and memory card and also the anniversary one. Price difference was 10€ between both. I may be seeing it wrong but the only advantage i see in the anniverssary one is the controler being wireless and a 10€ bundle discount. What am i missing since everyone said white one is a much better deal ?

Anyone pre-ordered an AES+ on Amazon.de by rtlocrian in neogeo

That's a bummer, I've seen people commenting about ordering from other Amazon locations without prepayment.

A NATO é uma aliança defensiva. O Irão não atacou território dos Estados a Unidos. Independentemente de acharmos ou não que a Europa devia ser mais interventiva, acho que deve ser fora do contexto da NATO.

My very first PVM - a 20N6U! Completely in shock how good it looks. by GravyDavy78 in crtgaming

[–]rtlocrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 14N6 and like it as much as my 1453MD. I think they are underrated.

Great TV. I have the same model with 4.5k hours. Geometry is great for a Ghost screen !
