    (FIXED) Out Zone missing cap and I don't know how to identify it. (pics included)

    Hello everyone, Now that I'm a bit more confident in my soldering skills, big thanks to @twistedsymphony for help with that. I've decided to try repairing some of my stuff.

    (Tutorial - OSSC, Tink4k, etc) How to get sample rate for video games or other devices via brute force.

    Hey everyone! I finally made a video showing the technique I use to get the sample rate of arcade games and consoles. My apologies for the shoddy video quality and delay in putting this together. I just have lots of other projects I'm always working on so time is pretty limited for me...

    Is it okay to post non-arcade related but other video game repair questions?

    Unless I missed it, I didn't see any other section of the forums for repair questions. I have an IS-Nitro Capture system I'd like to either try to repair myself or hire somebody to repair if it seems like I can't do it. This seems like the kind of device that people here may have some ideas on...

    [Theory Crafting] Change a ROM files interpretation of DIP settings to make switching multi games easier?

    Changing DIPs each time I change the game on the CPS1 or any multi is kind of a hassle. So it had me thinking. Can you change the way a ROM interprets DIP settings? If so, that means that you could set all your multi DIPs to one permanent position, then modify your game ROM file to interpret...

    (Solved) Games stuck in "free-play" mode? (Probably a silly user error)

    Hello everyone. This is most likely user error, but here is my issue. The games seem to load fine, however when I get in game, I don't have to insert a coin to play. I can choose Easy, Medium, Hard or MVS before play, but they seem to allow me to just continue as much as I want. I looked in...
