I've been been toying with the idea of getting a Naomi for a while now and before I decide whether to take the plunge, I have a couple of questions.
I know next to nothing about the system , so bear with me.
There are a couple of Naomi 2s on ebay right now, which go for $150 give or take. Is that a good/fair price for a bare Naomi 2 Motherboard?
What else will I need to get me started? I'd like to forego a GD-Rom drive and get a CF kit instead, what are your opinions on the CF kit, any disadvantages compared to the GD-Rom drive?
I'm mainly looking to play Initial D 1-3 on it, so I most definitely will need Mitsu's S-JIHP right? Can anyone recommend a good PC Racing Wheel? Keep in mind that I have zero soldering skills, so rewiring connectors or fancy tricks like that are out of the question. Also, about I/O Boards, do I need a Sega JVS or a JVS to Jamma converter?
Do I absolutely need a SUN PSU or will the PSU inside my Supergun suffice?
And last but not least, what about the BIOS? Most of the Naomi 2's I've seen come with the stock Japanese Bios. Is there a Multibios or something like that available?
