Ahoy Arcade-Projects forum.
I'm super late to submit my introduction.
Essentially I'm your typical 40 year young gamer with expendable income, and never really grew up because I'm a Toys R' Us kid.
My arcade obsession started with a NeoGeo MVS, and it all went down hill from there a couple months ago.
I used to be big into emulation, and I've found it exhausting and unfulfilling, so I moved on to JAMMA.
After my first NeoGeo rebuild/restoration, I fell in love with the fragile CPS-III because I wanted Third Strike in it's majestic glory.
Because of Arcade hardware, I'm finding way more satisfaction in the effort it takes to understand and wake up the variations of equipment in the wild.
Sure, I could stick to console ports and emulation but, once I got a taste of arcade "feeling" you almost want to never want to go back.
Now my stupid ass is buying a complete Naomi Netboot kit because of this place. THANKS!
Anywho, I'm just dropping a simple HELLO and THANK YOU to every single person that pointed me in the right direction.
Nobody here has steered me wrong, and there's a wealth of useful links and DIY documentation.
No other forum I've come across does what this place does well.
Cheers!!!
