Fuck you david g, this Daedalus is the biggest piece of shit. I have wasted countless time fiddling around with this thing trying to make it not have a fucked up screen all the time. Great you made a converter that can zoom in and out. Fuck you, you Canadian scum (I’m Canadian). Just wanted to impress my friend by getting my 161 cartridge to fuck the Daedalus but no; squiggly distorted screen and no last blade 2 this evening. I just wasted 20 minutes trying to make this fucking thing work. Fuck you david g

I remember purchasing this immediately and then returning it imediately due to problems it was giving me.I was never crazy about the design.I felt that it placed too much stress on the cartridge slots.

Well, you're using a shitty bootleg cart, so you get what you pay for.

Not to defend DavidG, but all the converters are shit, honestly. The Daedalus just happens to work the best overall. If there was a converter that worked as well as the Daedalus, was reasonably priced, top-loading, and didn't hold the cart in a death grip, I might pick it up.

Buy only a Neo Geo SD and ignore the rest of the fucking made in china merchandise.
Or just get neo geo AES, MVS and buy the normal carts, if you like to give €€€€ to SNK.
I like chinese merchandise, if they working good and it have no scars on it.

I agree…but I also agree that converters are dumb in general and using a converter to play a pirate cart thats worth less than the converter isn’t really what the dumb project was designed for in the first place.

I bought the Daedalus when it was first released. At that time there was no AES 161 cartridge or neosd. Where’s Tonk?

Through what 30 year old hardware magic does SNK have where they still make money on long dead hardware and carts exclusively resold by hobbyists and eBayers?

There is a racial component to all legit Neo purchases, it sounds like. If you ain’t nihonjin you’re a bootlegger. I think that’s what he’s saying. “Protect the One True Divine Ethnic Gamer Nation”
