Blast City / Astro City / Astro City 2 / NNC - Restorations

Hey guys! Got my panel wired up but my colors didn’t match the diagram I had exactly.

I got all my directions working and A B C but I am not sure what button would be for D?

Or maybe I don’t have a wire for a 4th button currently?

Here is a pic of my 1P harness. I don’t seem to have yellow though.

This is how I have it wired right now.

Demolished a little 70s style wetbar island. Need to paint then have carpet installed. May stick a cab or two over here.

Bump. Woot. Do I need a different harness?
 
On my Aero I had to add wires for the p1 and p2 fourth button. I pinned them into the existing harness. I first connected them to vacant button 4 spots on the jamma harness then ran them to a connector near the Sega edge connector in the bottom of the cab (the yellow,wires), then ran them up into the CP tray where I pinned them into the button harness

I wish I could pay you to come upgrade my aero to stereo and 4 button lol

Thank you! Whenever I get my head back into arcade mode I am going to give those things a shot.
 
Finally applied my Zona Arcade NNC side stickers! I was glad the adhesive allowed you to peel parts off and try again. I’m sure we got a bubble or two but overall very happy with the sticker and me and my dads installation.

How did you feel about the accuracy of the repro side art is on the NNC? Zona's stuff looks good but until you have it in hand its tough to make the final judgement.

Huge improvement over the side repro sticker that came with it from JCL games imo. I also have his instruction space repro which was decent and marquee repro which I think is excellent.

The stuff I’ve gotten from him has a nice premium feel.

It appears very accurate to me but I am not an NNC expert by any means.
 
The marque insert is totally wrong type of material and doesn't have the same effect as original. Outside of a few pieces of his work that were just totally off, his stuff is pretty good and accurate just expensive. He has a ton of stuff no one else is offering and will pretty much take on anything.
 
To be fair, printing the same as original at that size would be very difficult and expensive. When they are illuminated, they are good enough that most people wouldn't even notice.
