Loving this multi so far! Thanks
@Hammy. Best games on the system IMO are EDF, P-47, Plus Alpha, Saint Dragon and The Astyanax.
Had a bit of a rocky start with lots of sprite glitches and stuff but that boiled down to a dud motherboard which didn't present any issues playing the original game: P-47.
*Luckily* I had another P-47 and the motherboard on that one fixed everything. I suggest what Hammy said and try test another game somehow to ensure your motherboard is fine. I'm extremely fortunate to have had a backup here in hindsight. I might try figure out what's wrong with this other one, or just move it along as its original game. It's in immaculate condition, so looks can be deceiving -- for reference it was the Original Export Version, B Type.
Here's the DIP settings for the games in the "Basic" set:
0000: Legend of Makai
0100: Pro Yaku Baseball
0010: EDF
0001: Kick Off
0011: R&T Prototype
0101: P-47
0110: Samurai Shingen
0111: Plus Alpha
1000: In Your Face
1100: Phantasm
1110: Ninja Kazan
1101: Hachoo
1001: Saint Dragon
1010: Rod Land
1011: Soldam
1111: The Astyanax
"Kick Off" is by default a Trackball game. Just turn on DIP 7 on Bank 2 to enable it to use a joystick.
The only other advice I want to give is make sure the multi is seated correctly. There's 6 connectors in total, if it's not on firm, you'll probably have issues.
I might overclock or upgrade the CPU but for now everything is running well and I'm looking forward to sinking some time into it. Also, I'm not really noticing any slowdown issues. The games that are "slow" genuinely just feel right for that time period anyhow.
Here’s a photo of the Multi installed which might be a good reference (even though the ROM names are silkscreened on PCB already).
