    FS MP07-IONA-US JVS/USB I/O Board v3.11: Worldwide Sales & Troubleshooting Thread

    Ever since I picked up a couple IONAs from Tops, this has been my main device for anything JVS related nowadays. After using it for several months, I'm at a point where I'd be interested in trying out other games that utilized dedicated housings or controls. Does anyone have gameplay footage...

    UD-USB Decoders

    I got another notification like around 1 PM yesterday, like four hours later I saw it was sold out. I'm not sure if they were really in stock and they pushed out the notifications by mistake?

    Is it just me or the moment they get restocked at Paradise Arcade it gets sold out instantly? 😅

    Type-X and TGM3

    Thank you, yeah I was also concerned about space. Reflect literally does the 1:1 with no compression option iirc. My main computer can only hold so much at the moment 😅 Will give this a try later.

    Type-X and TGM3

    @rtw I was meaning to ask - In regards to cloning hard drives, could I use something like Macrium Reflect to go about the process? The last time I ever cloned a drive with that software, it was like an exact 1:1 copy that worked out the gates. Unless there's a different cloning program you'd...

    Type-X and TGM3

    Last (?) update but at Stock TTX -> Sony PVM: I picked up a BKM-129X clone card SCART/VGA from Crown Arcade Shop. The card has two switches to toggle between SCART/VGA input and CSYNC/HVSYNC. I plugged it into my 14L2, pushed in the switches to toggle both VGA and HVSYNC mode and went into the...

    Type-X and TGM3

    Another update: My Hori Real Arcade Pro.N works perfectly on the MP07-IONA with firmware version 2.22 and was able to play TGM3 without any issues thankfully. I'll be able to try out other fight sticks once my friends come by. In my opinion, I felt the IONA website instructions was very...

    Type-X and TGM3

    @nam9 I picked up a couple IONAs from Tops JP (and I’m under the impression it’s the latest firmware instead of the 2.16 as listed) since the overall price and shipping was pretty good at this time. The whole setup works out the box with a stock Type-X (Model B). All I did was plugged the USB...

    I don't have a Twitter account, but during my brief search I came across these set of tweets from like a few years ago about the IONA along with pictures...

    Type-X and TGM3

    It’s not a problem, whenever you have the time of course. :) This is just mainly for me to understand and for others to see down the line. I don’t think I’ve seen that kind of setup with a Sony PVM (or something similar) yet. My friend only has like monitors that can do Display Port, but he...

    Type-X and TGM3

    Would it be okay for me to see an example of that setup on your end? If the VGA2SCART in this case serves as a good mediator, I guess I'll pick one up.

    Type-X and TGM3

    Another question I have out of curiosity - Since the Taito Type-X is able to support 15khz through its VGA port, would it be possible to hook it up to a Sony PVM using a VGA2SCART or would the image quality and/or input lag be kind of horrendous?

    Type-X and TGM3

    My current understanding is - If you own the original drive and dongle, you're pretty much playing until either one of them breaks down*. At some point you'd have to move onto using the decrypted version if you'd want to keep playing on the intended Taito build; I'd imagine that's the typical...

    Type-X and TGM3

    Hey everyone, I have a few questions about running TGM3 on the Taito Type-X in 2024. I would like to support my close friend in his TGM adventures, and I want to learn more about the whole setup. The pros, cons, and nitty gritty I should be aware of on the hardware and software side. I wouldn't...

    Model 3 JAMMA with HAS Supergun?

    If I were to upgrade to the QP-150 series, is there a setup similar to what jcmorrisii has to offer with their RT-x series of cases nowadays? Not gonna lie once I got one of those, I became a fan of the "set it and forget it" layout especially if I'm bringing my Supergun setup over to other...

    Model 3 JAMMA with HAS Supergun?

    Howdy everyone, I’ve been interested in picking up a Virtua Fighter 3tb boardset for quite some time, but what got me stumped is the whole JAMMA conversion process. My main setup is a HAS 4.2 with a Meanwell RTA-125. I do have a monitor that can display the required med resolution. I’d like...
