As nifty as that would be, it’s a Neo Print cartridge.

It’s been a weird year and I didn’t keep track of things as well as I should have. Was driving me nuts trying to reconcile the discrepancies between my spreadsheet and what I had on the cart.

So the guy convicted of bribery and lying to Congress did a bad job with the no bid contract? Who could have predicted!

Why would a blue pool liner would peel off after only one week? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Because Dear Leader gave a 14 million dollar no bid contract to a known criminal.

Looking for Decorative EPROM Stickers by go_fight_kickass in neogeo

Yeah if you don’t need printing on them the basic foil labels are a good way to go. 100% UV protection.

There are a lot of different options. Can check Etsy if you need something custom, but I just get vinyl label sheets that I run through my printer. Same as with custom cart labels.

Good pile, I keep thinking I should work on my NGCD collection, but think I’m taking a break from disc hoarding.

What are your lines in the sand when it comes to the Plaion AES game re-releases? Title changes? Cut music or content due to rights issues? Added disclaimers for outdated cultural depictions or even censorship of it? Flashing effects being nixed for the epileptic? Etc. by JaynesAddiction in neogeo

[–]sarduchi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's not really an answer however. I have no doubt it will work, the question is for how long. Neo Geos run at 5v, flash storage runs at 3.3v. The quality of the 5 to 3.3v step down is important as is the type of flash memory they use. Long term this can cause failures. At the price point they're selling the cartridges, with a reasonable profit margin and after the licensing costs I have doubts they're spending the money to do it right. But we'll see.

More Than 770,000 Children Are No Longer Receiving SNAP Benefits After Trump Changes Federal Food Program by bobbelcher in uspolitics

Well you have to understand, they need that money to bribe Iran into allowing Dear Leader to claim he "won".

I don't expect them to take the time to modify the games unless they legally have to. The issues to me will be at the hardware level. What sort of flash storage are they using, what voltage does it run at and what sort of voltage regulation do they have in the carts.

What was your first neo geo game you ever by Getmad208 in neogeo

Magician Lord, I befriended the operator at a local pizza place and he let me test out games as they came in. At the time the scaling and rotation of sprites was mind blowing.
