Many of you have seen my Metro VG420 multi kit, but I also made one for Jaleco Mega System 1C (Buy this kit here: https://bit-district.com/jaleco-mega-system-1c-multi-kit.html)
Why this hardware? Why make this multi?
This hardware is a bit near and dear to me because it was the first platform where I was able work out a conversion! and since then I've wanted to make a multi for it. You can find that old thread here: https://www.arcade-projects.com/thr...r-chimera-beast-or-64th-street-detective.6881
This multi builds on that work, and it even features 2 games from Mega System 1B hardware that were ported by Hammy! (EDF and Phantasm)
Much like my Metro VG420 multi this is a DIY, solder it yourself kit. very simple to solder for novices as it's 100% through-hole parts.
I've only made a small batch of this kit, and don't plan on making any more so once they're gone they're gone.
Games this will play:
Donor Boards for this = any "Mega System 1C" PCB which includes:
- Big Striker
- 64th Street: A Detective Story
or
- Cybattler
(Technically you could use Chimera Beast as well but that's a rare prototype so probably shouldn't use it as a multi.
Donor PCBs look like this:
This also fully supports my LCD Selector!
I'm also opening my webshop bit-district.com
where you can buy this Jaleco Mega System 1C kit or my Metro VG420 kit as well as the LCD selector.
Support documentation is available through the site page above.
