I turned off my AWSD (with a wei-ya 3129D, Samsung Tube) the other night after playing for about an hour, went to turn it on the next morning and had HV shutdown with the relays clicking on and off every second or so, and the flyback trying to start up. I pulled the chassis and looked it over...

I bought a Kaneko Nova motherboard a while back as a future donor for spare parts in case my good board fails, and it was advertised as having graphical glitches. Of course, it arrives and it does actually have graphical glitches, just as described: Of course, not being content with just...

Just wanted to post positive feedback for @ABTmRw. Bought a single cabinet lock w/key - A small value transaction, but it went without a hitch. Packed securely and shipping was lightning quick. Great communication too!

Got this Ringedge 2 earlier this year, but I need to make room for other things so I've decided to sell it. I replaced the thermal compound on both the GPU and CPU with Arctic MX4 (good for at ~8 years, it's a long-life compound). The CPU heatsink has been replaced with an Intel OEM cooler, as...

My friend picked up a 4thmix plus upgrade kit in Japan many years ago, and wants to know what's involved in running it. From what I've found, he needs to find and buy a "digital" system 573. I'm not sure how to tell the difference when searching for one though. I also heard about some issue with...

Looking to sell my Atari Jaguar since I never play it. It's in really nice condition cosmetically, not perfect, but very, very nice. Plays perfectly with no problems. I'll do my best to describe the condition: - Top case has minor blemishes on it, but the logo and text are perfect. - Bottom...

I just picked up a new board (Pachinko Sexy Reaction... Don't judge me!), and it's on the SSV platform which I've never dealt with before. I tested it out and everything works fine, but I'm a bit worried about the NiCd battery on the ROM board. The battery was sitting at 0.8V when I got it, and...

I picked up a super cheap MV1B a while ago and never tested it. I pulled it out today and it seems that it has a strange color issue. Red is all blown out, and there are traces of red in the white color bar (no cartridge, unibios test). This color problem appears in-game as well when a cartridge...

Been looking on and off for a little bit and all I can find are bootlegs. Looking for cart only since I don't care about kits, Japanese label preferred if possible. Found

My mvs came with a bootleg (surprising nobody) puzzle bobble. My only mvs cart at the moment, and enjoying it very much, but I am looking forward to picking up some legitimate games of course...How much is a Money Idol Exchanger cart? :) Anyway, I opened it up to put stickers on the...

I just picked up an MV1-FS and found that it exhibits wavy / jittery video up at the top at all times. The screen also jumps around slightly / a few pixels randomly while playing a cart. While this is all on the admittedly shitty GBS scaler, I tested on multiple gbs boards, and multiple LCD...

Picked up a Super Kaneko Nova a while ago and the library is small enough that I want to collect some less desirable games before they get destroyed and turned into shitty cyvern conversions and the like. Looking to start with the Mahjong games: - Jan Jan Paradise - Tel Jan - VS Mahjong Otome...

Hey everyone, been thinking about picking up some new games as well as a few miscellaneous parts and was looking to see if anybody has what I'm looking for. A Neo Geo MVS MV-1F or MV-1FS A couple of fun carts to get me started to go with said MVS. Looking at metal slug 3 or X and shock troopers...

There is a wire jumpered near the amp on my CPS2 A board. Pictures of A boards I've seen online don't seem to have it. Nothing looks to have been damaged and reworked / repaired on the board, so maybe it's factory? If it is, what does it accomplish, and why don't most boards have it?

I don't have any JAMMA boards yet but want to be ready. I have converted the machine to Sega's 60 pin wiring to use with a sega JVS board. (In retrospect I should have just wired it up as JAMMA instead but that ship has sailed). From what I've read, the Jammafier is the way to go for controls...

The Vewlix has a three prong AC supply receptacle, with the ground pin wired directly to the chassis. Aside from this general chassis ground, the only component that is actually tied to ground are the service outlets. There is an input noise filter that has provisions for ground, but they are...

I bought a Vewlix FC a while ago and the monitor backlight died on me within a few seconds on my second ever power up. :( My plan was always to replace it anyway so it didn't bother me too much, but it was a bit unfortunate and I didn't want to just junk it, so I set out to repair it and get it...

Found: Also looking for a Taito ashtray, want it to store my 100yen coins in. :) Looking for a Taito JVS IO for my Vewlix to replace the FastIO it came with. Picked up Sega IO instead.

My Vewlix came with FastIO which is totally useless to me at the moment (don't have a FastIO pcie card or a ttx2/3, at least yet). I want to at least get started with some kind of useful interface to my PC so the cabinet isn't just a static piece of furniture, and so far have the following...

Hi all, I've been bitten by the arcade bug and playing on emulators at my desk isn't cutting it so I've started to venture into the world of real hardware. Hoping to start with a modern cabinet like a noir or vewlix with a ttx2 and expand from there to older gear like the cps2, mvs and the...
