Got a marquee holder/topper for Aero City. Yes, the insert is of poor quality...I was eager to print something out and get it in there and admittedly it is on plain paper and printed on a standard desktop printer. I need to get some pics at night...and maybe print something that will be more visible with light shining on it in the dark.

Got Aero Fighters 2 through today, looking forward to trying it out on my Neo Geo CD. One of my favourite shmups!

Definitely the best game in the Aero Fighters series. Every shmup should let me choose a dolphin as my pilot avatar.

Some real good scoops today:

That Sega CD. IMO the nicest Sega Cd unit, hardest part is getting that sucker to last. The Japanese model is very nice as well.

 

[NoAffinity]

Not a game, but goes great with the games. Why yes, yes I am an IPA guy...



Oh yeah, and I got a game at the local retro VG store. Looking to replenish some of the PS games I once owned. Didn't find any of them, but this will hold me over for a minute.

Yeah, its really nice, the seller refurbished everything inside, its new belt, super quiet tray- played a lot of Robo Aleste while giving it a test run.

Got a HRAP4 Kai off amazon and Golfing Greats from Bill Burger. Board was really cheap and Im gonna poach the mainboard.

Finally bought a NES Ultimate guide and this thing is huge! It joins my encyclopedia lineup for PC Engine, Mega Drive, Sega Saturn and Playstation:

Can you please show some pics of the Sega Saturn books?

Really reppin' that Neo CD stuff. Damn I want one. Congrats on more scoops

I bought little set-up hoping to have an external monitor on top of the Deathsmiles cab at the Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown in June. I thought it would be cool to see the game playing from a monitor above the machine to give people a chance to watch the gameplay without having to crowd around the player.

It's been awhile since I've found some clean games on the cheap. I've been searching for DKC2 for a good while now, so I am especially happy about this scoop.

You forgot DKC3 you heathen.

Can you tell me where to find that splitter and the cables? And when you try it out, if there's any lag?

There's the link to the splitter. The cables came with the GBS 8200 converter.

 

[ChuChu Flamingo]

im surprised that thing doesn't have a way to split off audio and make it line level.

Well, the GBS converter doesn't do audio, IIRC, but yeah, that'd be nice.

The guy who made it didn't need audio at the time. He made it just for himself, but other people asked him for it too. However, around July he should have a new revision that will also split line out audio.

Lol. I've seen it a few times, but only at pawn shops with an inflated price tag. I've got my fingers crossed.

Looks good man!

Pro-tip: You can bleach the clear shells if they are yellowed (don't think yours needs it though)

The splitter is being sold by a member on klov. Search klov for "signal splitter", you should find his thread with a link to his website. The cable comes with the encoder.

Would like to hear how your setup works out, nerdtendo.

I bought one of these splitters and am not getting great video out of it, but I haven't done much testing other than the wei-ya cv-04 ntsc encoder I bought to use with the splitter and am using in conjunction with it. I've used cv-04s in the past with no problems, but maybe the quality has slipped since then.

For audio, stripping an rca cable end and soldering to the pads for audio + and - will at least get you mono from the jamma pinout.

Nice, i like shadow dancer a lot, a great game and the jap boxart is fantastic.
The megadrive was home to some of the very best 16 bit action platformers.

Never have you seen so many bits look so awful. Not sure why I continue to be drawn to the Jaguar, but I guess it's good to slum it from time to time to better appreciate Neo Geo stuff.
