    Baseball Stars 2: 2-player credits bug

    Can anyone else confirm this bug on their system? Please post your bios and cart type (AES/MVS/multicart) While running Baseball Stars 2 in MVS USA mode, the game requires 2 credits inserted in order to select the 2-player mode. But if at least one of those credits (one or both) is on the...

    New Aliexpress Option for MV1B Memory Card Support

    Here's an interesting expansion board for MV1B boards that adds memory card support, and other things. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806352795401.html I wonder what would prevent this from working with an MV1C. Memory card support could be added with a much smaller form factor than this...

    Why did SNK keep making 5v AES systems?

    My understanding was that SNK added a daughterboard with a voltage regulator to early models in response to people plugging in a wrong AC adapter and frying their consoles without the regulator built in. Later AES revisions incorporated the voltage regulator circuit into the design. Why then is...

    Hebereke/Ufouria 2

    No one posted it yet, so I will. Sure, I'm willing to give a new Sunsoft release in an old franchise a chance.

    Unibios ADPCM-B Channel Swap Possible?

    Is it possible to add a toggle to the Unibios options to swap the left and right channels for ADPCM-B? I assume not, since the bios doesn't communicate directly with the YM2610.

    Mislabeled Voltage AES in Australia?

    Is this one of the fabeled AES systems that says to use PRO-POW on the bottom (5v), but the coil and voltage regulator is inside? I always hear about needing to check the components inside because the label can't be trusted, but I haven't really seen this myself. Anyway, someone in Australia...

    Irritating Maze Cart Bad Sound

    I bought this cart on ebay in 2005 and right away I noticed even though it's all original, all the roms have been desoldered (presumably to dump the game). The condition is quite poor, and I probably should have gotten rid of it, but it was a good deal so I kept it. Back when I first got it it...

    Ghosting in Frontloader NGCD RGB Image

    Does anyone know if recapping the video circuits will fix this? I just got this frontloader, and there is ghosting in the image (you can see it to the right of objects in the solid colors). Tested the toploader with the same scart cable and capture device, and it doesn't have the issue. The same...

    Galaxy Guns - New Shmup/Run'n Gun from Neotris Developer

    I noticed no one posted this yet. Chips on Steroids (Neotris) has begun the development of Galaxy Guns for NEOGEO AES/MVS. It mixes run'n gun and shmup phases. A playable demo should be out by September. I think I was a little too hard on Neotris when it was first announced. If they do a rom...

    PGM KOV Plus Boot or No Boot

    Lately I've been adding to my PGM collection. I've noticed it's pretty hard to find reliable information on this system in English. I've noticed from the examples I've found online that carts of Knights of Valour Plus don't even seem to have a unique label on the cart. They just have a normal...

    X68000 Help

    My brother's X68000 CZ-601C stopped booting games a couple years ago. We changed the CMOS battery, but that had no effect. You can hear the system and floppy drive running when powered up. I've measured voltages off of the power supply, and it appears to still be supplying power. My main...

    Getting CSYNC from the Neo Geo CDZ

    I decided to post a topic about this since I was curious, and couldn't find an answer. You have to perform this mod to get CSYNC from the Neo Geo CDZ. I opened up my CDZ, and confirmed that it has the same issue as the toploader -- composite video is connected to the sync pin on the multi out...

    Ninja Combat Memory Card Load

    When I start a game of Ninja Combat in AES mode with a memory card in the slot and a game save on the card, it never displays a choice to load or not on the screen. It just jumps straight to the loaded saved game. I have to remove the card from the slot when starting the game if I want to start...
