Hi! I have a blast city and I am new to the JVS IO world.

Would this jvs adapter work for a tatsunoko vs capcom pcb?

Sorry super new to this

yes this should work fine, I use the same with my TvS board as well. I am not sure about wiring on Blast city but with JP1 jumper set to B, 5 buttons per player come from JAMMA connector.

Do you know if there is a manual that exists for this board? I am just new to wiring up jvs.
So from I gather, it’s not a capcom 6 button game, it uses 4 if I read that correctly in another forum.

And I would use the JVS port on the pcb to the jvs io sega board.

If I am using a crt, would I use vga to vga in the jvs io? Then maybe a jumper to make it 15hz cga?

Also, silly question, if I am putting this in a vewlix, I have hdmi, do you think a could use vga/hdmi adapter on it? Think that would make sense?

Sorry last question! Haha sorry so excited I am waiting for my pcb to arrive so still haven’t played around with it.

How does one power the Wii psu block? 100v jp+ I assume? Or would 120v+ be fine?
I luckily have my blast city and vewlix setup with a regular strip plug but just cirious

Thanks So much!
Isn’t it an awesome game? Do you enjoy it a lot?

Correct, that would convert the inputs from JVS USB to JAMMA

If your CRT has VGA cable and supports 31khz you can plug it directly into game board i.e bypassing the Sega IO board. Dip switch #1 "OFF" postion is 31khz (480p) and "ON" postion is 15khz (480i). There is 16:9 option in the game as well. To get to the "hidden" menu where you can set 4:3 or 16:9 you have to hold the SEL button on the pcb down as you power it up. Change the setting, save, exit.

You can absolutely do that, in that case better to have dip switch #1 in "OFF" position to have a progressive scan. Any passive VGA to HDMI adapter should do the trick.

Either should be fine but Wii PSUs are really cheap to get and have not been as abused as the arcade ones. I personally use NA Wii PSU.

Love it. I played the Wii version for many years and then got the arcade PCB.

Arcade Otaku has a great write-up on the game:

I can tell you I power the Wii PSU Block from my TvC board with normal USA 120V and it's fine.

it's an off-the-shelf power adapter from a Wii and the same model number used by the consoles
