Damn, I was really looking forward to playing Now Of The Vblikis!

I understand that "converting" a CPS1 SF2 Champion Edition B board to Hyper Fighting involves swapping out just three EPROMs (21, 22, 23.) Has anyone ever considered creating a device to toggle between these so you can easily switch between the two games? This would remove the need for owning a...

Due to the "too good to be true" element I have 'just' ordered Neo Turf Masters. Note it apparently includes the Scotland course, previously unique to the NGCD version. Can't wait to try it on my OG AES!

In case you're not aware, imgur isn't a great choice for hosting images any more

I finally got round to converting my Astro City stick to a Brook fighting board, it now works with the Supergun as well as any other USB console. This is now a much more affordable mod than a few years ago, the newest Brook Gen 5 board is only about £50, and there are cheap knock off cable...

LOL that MiSTer is the least accurate of all of them, should wipe the smugness off some faces. I have always thought that FBNeo on my Pi4 with RGB-Pi feels practically identical to my real CPS1/CPS2 boards, any time I think I've been cheated by lag or inaccuracy I immediately try the same on the...

But every CRT has rounded edges, there is no such thing as a perfectly square picture tube, therefore every video input needs some overscan to avoid black edges or missing content?

Yes something like that may work, but the RGB shifters I've seen only move the picture, they don't scale it, so I would have to choose whether to have the left or right cropped. I guess what I need is an inline scaler?

Does anyone know why Capcom placed important information (credits, life bars, power bars, settings menu options etc) right on the very edges of the viewable area of the screen? The problem I've got is that I use the same CRT for consoles and my supergun, all the consoles have a reasonable amount...

Well six months have passed, I didn't bother returning it as it wasn't expensive and I figured I might be able to fix it myself, as above the seller couldn't speak English so support from them was impossible. After some trial and error I have found that pushing down the center of the B board...

Looks amazing. It's funny how a 4:3 monitor always looks like 16:9 when installed portrait.

My Darksoft CPS2 sometimes gives a brown screen on boot, it's always the A & B boards not connected correctly. Try removing and reseating a few times, pushing down etc.

Yep the player 2 kick buttons all work fine too, so I'll probably just leave it for now.

Interesting, player 1 all works fine but I’ll check P2 now, thanks

Thanks, that's a good suggestion. I'm still curious to understand how it works with a broken leg though if anyone knows! I have noticed some CPS1 C boards don't even seem to have this chip fitted in the socket.
