Hi y'all!
I'm an American from North Carolina living in Osaka, Japan! I've been here 16 years and been a huge video game muh whole life.
I recently got myself a Super Neo 29 for a STEAL of a price (30,000 yen). It's in fantastic condition, despite being quite used and definitely looking like it did it's time
in a smokey arcade. It has a MV-1FZS (1-slot) jamma compatible board that came with Metal Slug 2. I bought the OG Samurai Spirits and now I have one of those 161 in 1 carts.
Thinking about adding one of the Pandora's Boxes to it as I'll probably never be able to afford a proper Capcom cab. Don't get me wrong I LOVE SNK games, but I'm dying
to have a SFIII New Generation set up.
I replaced all the buttons to the original color scheme with Sanwa buttons. Whoever owned before replaced them a long time ago and none of them matched. I also
rewired the speakers to an amp so now it has volume control.
I have a small to do list for things I want to fix/upgrade.
- Find a 6-button panel (Lost one in an auction last week by 5,000 yen... T _ T)
- Add the battery back to the Mobo.
- Change the marquee bulb to an LED one
- Find a marquee holder for the top (super low priority)
- Add a Pandora Box with kickharness.
Anyway, sorry for the long introductions. I look forward to posting pics and asking questions all over the site so yoroshiku!
