DARKSOFT New Namco System 1 Multi

[bagheera369]

@Darksoft - I saw these were out at HSS, are there plans for another run?

 

[Mitsurugi-w]

Eventually I will be assembling them.

@Mitsurugi-w - Thanks... I understand the Sys 18 has had priority, and am glad ya'll were able to get it all sorted. Both are awesome!

Thank goodness. I just repaired a board I have been sitting on and went to order after it was fixed and saw hss was out of stock. Any idea on what timing y’all are planning for restocking this?

 

[Mitsurugi-w]

Unsure. I should get a batch done after s18 wsit list is done. We will have down time between s18 and s32 to let people refill their wallets. Lol.

Incredible... Someone placed a bid on this. Beraboman just the IO board and ROM chips... not even a PCB. Someone has deep pockets...or is desperate.

Not sure if there is a list being maintained for the next batch, but I'm definitely in for one.

@Darksoft @Mitsurugi-w
I probably missed message but is the new multipack 2023-03-27 for this multi a patch for the shadow Pacmania issue ? Write the file user1_swapped_merged.bin in place of the older one is the solution ?
Thank you.

We do not share or talk about game roms or where they are located. You can try talking to other users but we can't help here, sorry.

 

[Neo.raizo]

It’s noted. Thanks.

 

[plasticfactory]

Any updates on these?

 

[geosnow]

I am in for the next batch.

@plasticfactory and @geosnow you should note your interest in the next batch here:

Is there a way to add a selector to namco 1?

 

[Darksoft]

Is there a way to add a selector to namco 1?

Yes, should be doable as the dip switches go out on an extension cable to a small PCB. A new one with rotary can be made. @Mitsurugi-w

 

[ForestOfDreams]

That would be awesome.

Also @twistedsymphony makes an beautiful lcd selector (for the vg420 Multi) witch i think is designed to be universal useful . Did you checked with him ?

 

[Darksoft]

I did. We will see if we can still integrate it.

 

[Mitsurugi-w]

vg420?

vg420?

I'm nearing completion of a Multi-board for the Metro VG420 hardware.

Why this hardware? Why make this multi?
Well I really wanted Sky Alert and Karate Tournament, both very expensive PCBs, and I wanted to figure out how to convert a cheap Toride PCB to either of these games. I managed to do it but it required some additional circuitry to do so and that additional circuitry was most of the way to a multi, all I needed was some bigger ROMs and a way to bank switch them. So I decided that since the hard work was already done I might as well take it the rest of the way and make a full...
