    Chinese 87 in 1 compatibility

    Currently, you can buy only B board on Aliexpress for $300. I have an original street fighter 2 CE kit with a 92631C-6 and a Dash Board with a 12 mhz processor. The seller on Ali doesn't seem to know much about what he's selling and says he's not sure if his B board will work with my A and C. I...

    CPS1 Test Mode

    For neo geo, if you do not insert the cartridge, the test mode starts, where you can check both the buttons and the picture, and if you switch dipswitch, you can run the memory test. There is much less information about CPS1 on the Internet - is there something similar in it?

    MVS MV1B/1C battery replacement

    So after replacing the faulty capacitors on the board, how long does the battery last? The fact that the clock is reset is not terrible, it's bad that the neobios region and console mode are reset.

    Chinese CPS1.5 stereo without amp

    Almost all the boards that you order on aliexpress will be 1.5 versions with a homemade audio amplifier. I think if you write to the seller, they may not solder the amplifier, it's even easier for them. I wonder where they got so much 1.5 and why they don't sell them assembled with qsound and...

    Chinese CPS1.5 stereo without amp

    Since no one could confirm the operability of the sound output without an amplifier on 1.5 boards, I did not take any chances and ordered a board with a guaranteed original audio amplifier for 20 bucks more.

    Chinese CPS1.5 stereo without amp

    I am ready to replace all the capacitors on the 35-year-old device. Anyway, the only place I can get the board is from China. I don't need an amplified sound, I'll make a console - will I be able to get it with the CN5 if I remove the mono amplifier installed by the Chinese altogether?

    Chinese CPS1.5 stereo without amp

    I want to make a consolized CPS1. I can only buy the board on aliexpress, and there is an 80% chance they will send the 1.5 version with a manually added audio amplifier and capacitors. On the NEO GEO M1C, the built-in amplifier can be removed from the board and a non-amplified stereo signal can...

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    I also had errors on almost all the boards on the third cartridge from time to time - try inserting the adapter card not all the way in, but with a small gap in the programmer. So flash it, make a dump and compare the dump with the original P file - if it matches, then everything flashed fine...

    Interest Check: Vortex 161-in-1 carts BYOC edition (ya gotta have a cart to ship)

    What's the point of including a regular and turbo metal slug 2 - does turbo have any objective disadvantages, except that it's a hack? Instead, you could add one kof

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    The vertical stripes are not soldered contacts of the С ROMs on the main or daughter board. I used a female connector for both the new dual board and the old single board, which doesn't make sense if the old board is fully inserted, then it won't be able to be pulled out due to the...

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    All 3 of my cartridges work without problems, not a single chip was burned, because I used a low-temperature Rose alloy for desoldering. For the final soldering to the board, I already used ordinary solder. A lot of time has been spent on all this, and if you are not engaged in soldering...

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    I periodically get the A8 open error on the P board, but everything is fine and the dump matches the original rom.

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    I don't know, but if they're still using the Prototype version, it means it's not that easy and no one has succeeded yet, or maybe no one really tried.

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    Garou is only P without cutscenes and kof2000 with not completely broken protection, with a bunch of artifacts. And Garou definitely needs a patch so that the game doesn't crash when one of the fighters performs a super strike.

    Reverse engineering 161 in 1 cartridge to change Rom games

    GAROU has a patched beta version running, it doesn't crash when you make a super punch from one of the fighters. davidmorom posted the patch a few pages ago. The second cartridge also worked in the end -I didn't understand what was going on, I soldered everything that was, but in my opinion...
