I ship to China regularly at my work and those addresses regularly exceed the character limit in the shipping software, it's nuts. And yeah Germany and some other northern European countries have some awesomely short addresses.

Dude I didn't really mean that in a bad way, just that there are a lot of people coming into this without the sort of knowledge that used to be sort of expected, and that maybe the people making the manuals and stuff for these products should take note. I absolutely think it's a good thing that...

Did you order from HSS? Mine was shipped UPS Ground, but yeah also seems to be just bouncing around in MN (where they ship from) since the 23rd. I also have a Nemesis PCB I was expecting to have by the long weekend stuck in customs. Shipping delays are a bummer!

I mean, so is the cardboard box it comes in, just have to make sure it's outside the shielded packaging part

I don't have a spare but just want to commend you on your taste, very underappreciated game. Someone hook this guy up

You're dealing with "what's a 68000" level of knowledge here, which honestly kinda surprises me. Only a few years ago that would have been unheard of because they would be firmly in pandora's box land, if that. Knowing this I would honestly put a giant extremely beginner level explanation of ESD...

Mine should be here on Friday, fully expecting to get an FPGA due to how late I ordered but not the end of the world because it's just sound stuff and I've never been one to stress about audio (everything mono, don't mind stuff like stock Aero speakers that lots of people say is unbearably bad)...

Just got my notification, awesome!

Granted I haven't updated my MAME version in a while bout I don't see a USA set for TB Did they just put the world boards in blue cases? EDIT: Nevermind, I see the US version was added in 0.203 and I have 0.199. That must be one rare board to be added so late

Ah ok, but you could make the argument that since the cab has normal TNC art (was there even TB US art?) then a real restoration would bring it back to TNC. You probably don't want to but I think the best service you could do for that cab would be to put a CPS2 multi in it. You'll have TB when...

I think you're looking for a "The New Challengers" rather than "Tournament Battle", you should revise it to show up in searches otherwise people will think you're looking for a pretty rare multi-cab version of this game...

You know, I just checked and I was way off from when I thought it was released. For some reason I thought it was a space of weeks but yeah, months. They should probably remove the "beginning of May" thing from the order page though because I'm sure there are people out there who would take that...

Yeah no worries that's why I asked here to get an idea from other users rather than bothering them. If that isn't cool either, let me know and I'll delete it.

Just wondering if anyone who ordered from HSS around the last two weeks of April has gotten a shipping notification? Trying to figure out if my order will be shipping soon.

Several years ago I got a Battle Garegga PCB for a steal because it had some graphical issues. When I received it I saw immediately that there was some cold joints on U30, a very fine pitch QFP. At the time I had no micro pencil or microscope, but I thought I'd fix it myself, since I'd never...
