Is it possible to be put on the list just for the Capcom NAOMI I/O?

 

[Lemony Vengeance]

put me down for an X2. Will go perfect in my upcoming purchase.

 

[KalessinDB]

You know I've been waiting on a good GB to snag a Capcom IO, so I'll be down for one of those please.

 

[LegoSlug]

You can put me down for a capcom i/o

Thanks!

 

[Kid Panda]

Put me down for a X2 and Gigawang Mike please.

 

[Adderall]

stupid question... but will this sega IO work for X2 ?

 

[defor]

Put me down for:
Taito Type X2 Motherboard
Capcom NAOMI I/O (compatible with X/X2)


Thanks!

 

[defor]

can you get ahold of Mobile Suit Gundam: Spirits of Zeon ?

 

[Zangrief]

How far away from "plug and play jamma" is the X2? Supergun compatibility?

 

[HDRchampion]

Damn i want in on this but no money...

 

[mjmjr25]

@Adderall - that looks to be the Sega NAOMI V.2 I/O which should be compatible (it has all the ports necessary).

@defor - Sorry, none of the Gundam games are available.

@Zangrief - it's going to be most closely compared to a 246/256 or NAOMI setup. If you don't have a JVS+ standard setup you will need an I/O to communicate with the mobo. The official Taito one looks like this:

Spoiler:

It has your video out (VGA cable), your comm cable (USB), and your Audio out (R/W stereo jacks). AC cable powering MOBO is external. With the setup in the image you plug your supergun harness into the JAMMA edge and you should be good to go - all things being equal. Many folks with an X/X2 setup use the NAOMI converter as it's cheaper (and it's pretty hearty with it's metal housing).

What type of monitor would I need? I'm guessing it wouldn't work on a CRT 'old' tv. HDTV? Computer monitor? Just wanting to know if I could play it before getting a (candy, likely) cab.

 

[mjmjr25]

Most cabs they are in use a HD LCD monitor - though they definitely work in CRT style arcade monitors. I believe it outputs both 15 and 31khz.

Here are the video out specs from system16: 640×480 (VGA), 1280×720 (HDTV 720p), 1920×1080 (HDTV 1080p)

I want to say it would output on a CRT w/supergun...but it's a guess. Ideally someone whom has done it can confirm / deny.

From what I've read, the Type X2 is 640x480 at 31k or 1280x720 HD only. You would need a trisync CRT that supports 31k or an LCD.

Yup.

The Type X2 only outputs 31khz video; older monitors which only display 15khz/24khz video will require a VGA to CGA converter.

 

[jugu]

I'm in for an X2 and I'm cool with the slow boat.

Thank you!

 

[Kid Panda]

Mike, is it possible to find out what revisions the mobos are?

 

[300wins]

I am in for a Taito X2 mobo. Please put me on the list Mike. Thanks.

 

[grendelrt]

This may be a dumb question, but I am assuming this is just the MB and you would still need ram and a GPU?

Nah, should be full setups. There are different revisions though

[ahcmetal]

This is good timing...I bought the multicart from Mits and have been looking for an X2 set up to run in my NNC...count me in for an X2 mobo...aaaand you probably already assumed I'm in no hurry as usual, so...boat shipping is fine with me...

"The majority of software requires an Elsa Gladiac 979GS (a Japanese GeForce 7900GS) to run. NVIDIA-branded GeForce 7900GS video cards are known to work when reflashed with the firmware from the 979GS. The more popular titles (Street Fighter IV, BlazBlue, King of Fighters XIII) will only run with the 979GS (or a reflashed 7900GS) installed. They will not function with a different card, such as the ATI card that came in the earlier models or the 9800GT which came in other models."

 

[HDRchampion]

This is too confusing...Can X2 motherboards play X1 games?

 

[pipes]

This is too confusing.

I knew this would happen. I've been there.

No, the X2 does not play X1 games.

Compatibility: Due to platform specific drivers (Windows XP Embedded), game software is not interchangeable between Type X² and the older Type X/X+ platform.
