Hey y'all, first time poster and new retro candy cab hobbyist here. I recently acquired a used Net City cab and some arcade boards, purchased separately. I've had pretty good luck with my CPS2 Super Turbo board and my MVS but my coveted Darksoft 3rd Strike board has some graphical and sound...
Requesting additional information from @Darksoft and friends to use this CPS-3 palmodding guide by @Maruchan on a board that is equipped with Darksoft Ultra CPS3 SIMM:
Applying Custom Palettes to CPS-3 (3rd strike)
Hey all!
One of my CPS3's decided it wanted to start randomly glitching out, so I ran a memory test on a whim and got the following:
CHARACTER RAM NG 24100000
I did a visual inspection of the traces and vias on both sides of the board around the RAM ICs, and I probed the PPU pins in case any...
Not sure what this stuff is worth, so throw me offers via PM if you think I'm way off base. I'm just throwing numbers out there. Please do not threadcrap!
Prices do not include shipping. Tell me your location if it's not in your profile so I can get you a shipping guesstimate.
I'm very open to...
Hello everyone, I need some help with my CPS3 that always had some problems with the cartridge slot since I bought it about a year ago.
I got this board from a guy from another city so I couldn't test it too much before I pay.
The thing is that this board started having some trouble since day...

I'm dealing with a SIMM (possibly two) that seems to have gone bad. I'd like to try to fix it, but I'm not really sure what to do besides reflowing the chips (already tried). I'm not super excited about the idea of trying to shotgun replace all of the flash chips, so I thought I'd try to make...

Hi Arcade Projects Community
I have become the proud owner of a CPS3, but I haven't been able to play because of a video output issue. I'm a bit out of my depth, would appreciate some help so I can get 3s working.
When I power on the board, the image is skewed. Pictures below.
When I first...
Might be a silly question, but is there a list anywhere of people who provide conversion services outside of the US & EU? For EU, I know we have DS (naturally), and the US has Mitsu, ShootTheCore, Cruzlink, and iFixRetro… but what about Asia? AU? LatAm?
Might be a good resource for people...
Located in Los Angeles CA, for sale for 1200 USD shipped. Just looking to make back my money (this is roughly what I paid after credit card fees, etc)
I recently bought a CPS3 SF3 original setup, but unfortunately circumstances are forcing me to sell this.
I purchased this from seller last...
Tale as old as time...
Helping a friend debug a CPS3 board; at power on, we're getting a garbage screen very similar to this one. Seems to happen with Super/Ultra BIOS carts, as well as cartridges with original BIOS/batteries. I tried dousing the cart slot with deoxit, didn't make any...
Figured this was worth a post. The CPS2 Digital AVs are back in stock. Looks like they will get more if this initial stock runs out.
