Yes, seems to be a straight pass through.

Updated in the next post down.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Most likely had a ton of these lying around and needed to still offload them.

Actually, it seems that this is another VS kit. This one does not support JVS, it is specifically created to support the RFIDs. There is another one that supports JVS.
 
very strange then. if it had 2 usb in ports then i would have guessed it was clamping the sense line so both could be used but from your other pics of the reader has 2 connectors which i guess 1 is in and 1 is out.

would it be possible to get some photos of the other side of the PCB. very intrigued at what this board is doing with the usb ports.

pictures leave so much to the imagination.
 
I find that most "VS Kits" are simply audio/video powered splitters, and the actual jvs 2p split is actually handled inside the software- a lot of Naomi and Namco games do this- just chain one JVS IO to another and you end up with the game seeing the chain, and taking one of the IO boards for one player and the second for the other player instead of both players off the same pcb.

From my experiences, usually the end of the chain is P1 and the closest is P2.

Yeah, like I mentioned before, there are A TON of deluxe cab games that utilize the TX2. The thing is that is the hardware and drives never usually leave the cab, they are usually sold altogether. It will take some years, but I'm pretty sure a number of them will be supported by MAME.
 
Hell do you know if KOFMIA2 ever seen the light of day past announcement.
I dont believe there was an official statement that it was canceled. so not sure if it made it to play test or not.

No, never came out. It was just announced, never a test. I've looked in to this. However, there is a proto NTSC-U version of SSS out there that never came out. There was only one location test at a local arcade I used to frequent. I am pretty sure I know the person who did the location test there and he might still have the drive. I won't see him for about another 9 months though... I was planning on asking him for it once I saw him again.
 
thanks for the info. dame internet never has reliable information ;)
 
Add Chabudai 1, 2, and Hoshi no Kyojin.

They're deluxe cab table flipping games that use the TX2.
