A few years ago my sister in law's boyfriend asked me if I wanted an NBA jam cabinet, hell yeah I did. Went to get it and it was a bastardized gambling machine with a "rim rockin' basketball" 8 bit pcb. With a hidden switch under it to switch back and forth. I was disappointed, but took it anyway.

I was playing neo geo Magician Lord with a cheat code for invincibility recently, after not dieing for some time a creature appears that flies in to you and you can't kill it. It hits you so much that you can't even progress while invincible. I presume the case is the same if you were really good at it too and not cheating. So yes, that game does that.

Kid Fenris posted:I think that monster is triggered by an unseen timer, so it's mostly there to keep you from staying in one spot for too long. I usually see it on the second stage because I take time to explore everything. I googled it after posting this, it's definitely a hidden timer but I couldn't find concensus on reason. Perhaps alive for x seconds + still in area y?

And unfortunately all of them have janky emulation filters to make the video look like garbage, and also take a minute or so to boot. I thought they all had built storage with fixed games though.

I'm curious of any recommendations for EPROM/EEPROM(?) programmers that work across OS's (specifically Linux), hopefully under $100? I have two Neo Geo boards with Unibios, I'd like the ability to flash the PROM instead of shipping the chip to the dude every time. One has NeoBiosMasta which takes/has a 27c1024 (Mouser part #s AT27C1024-45PU or AT27C1024-70PU, I dont know what the diff is). The other is a Jamma Nation X CMVS and I'd have to crack it open to see what's happening in there. Edit: maybe less priority now as he doesn't allow ordering for some undisclosed period of time, but still curious nonetheless http://unibios.free.fr/ordering.html falz fucked around with this message at 18:28 on Dec 29, 2019 |

We have one local "arcade" place that is exactly that. It's understandable that things break and it takes time, but cmon. I'd say this place has 50+ games, perhaps a dozen are simply out of service, at least half of the 50 have the problems you describe, possible barely functional controllers and flakey player2 controls, etc. They operate by a one time fee to get in, not per game. Fortunately a newer smaller barcade popped up and all of their stuff is proper, all CRT, except the 1-2 new games they have like Killer Queen.

So is it 'tate or Tate as in RoTate, or "tah-tay"? I have always said and will continue to say the RoTate Tate sounding, but allegedly the tah-tay word may be based on a Japanese word? Honestly it sounds douchy and pretentious to me so I'll just not say it that way. god bless.

There are arcade/pinball Facebook groups that people buy and sell stuff all of the time. Some dudes even drive around and get stuff for people from other states. Or just Craigslist and ignore the low ballers. Aren't a lot of the pc10 games worth a bunch now too?

Honestly it'd be nice if someone just figure out what games were on each rom in the 161, and if one of them is all knockoffs just replace that chip and add windjammers, waku, magician Lord, bowling..

I moved two cabinets between houses about a year ago. Consensus was to cover in moving blankets and then wrap with plastic wrap used for pallets. Worked great, may not be fully necessary in your case, mine were going in a moving truck with other stuff.

Does yours have a switch? Usually this is upstream of the power supply. Cut an extension cord, keep the female receptacle part, connect the wires to the AC inputs of the PSU. Since USB is v5, there may be a way to just natively get v5 for USB from the power supply too. Id be more cautious with this as I'd want something 'smart' in the middle to help regulate the power.

I've never had a plasma, but maybe google field of view or similar for that model if issues. My first few HDTVs were DLP and you absolutely could not view things properly from "under" ie if you were laying on the floor. You could also not 'tate one of those so it wasn't a big deal there. I could see that some models of any flat panel types may have some polarization layer for some reason.

mycophobia posted:if you want a guide on how to approach arcade games, read the top part of this https://mycophobia.org/arcade_gaming.html That and the mame reference make it pretty hard to fully agree on how to 1cc something.. back in 1990. I guess that's not the point, but would be hear additional tips with that in mind. I guess #3 would just be "watch the good guy at the arcade", if one happened to be there when you were.

mycophobia posted:"era appropriateness" is irrelevant. jp players credit feed the games for practice, watch each other, and talk to each other. there was and still remains physical game centers and a physical community of players over there, and there's a variety of reasonably active online communities of western players that mostly use mame. arcade games are being played now I was relating this to a westerner, in the 90s, not in Japan- ie tips that wouldve been useful then, if 1cc was a thing that westerner do. Some do obviously. Tbh your website has a 90s html 1.0 vibe (mine do too, which I love) and that may be why I was initially reading it as though it was even written in the 90s. All good tho.

A Tron like ending where the world is now populated by evil video game characters sure is quite the thing. How much is that Sega 16 multi kit? I recall having looked in to it last year but don't remember. Also can it play fantasy zone 2 dx if ram is upgraded?

None of that sounds arcade specific outside of its size. The last time I sold a game (Karate Champ) I messaged a local guy that has a ton of games and leaves them to some pizza places, I sold it cheap to get rid of it, so was easy. Also I put it in my garage for east pick up. That was before all prices got jacked up and basically everything with a crt and works is 4 figures. Maybe have a friend over and borrow a dog too just in case?

I didn't realize MvC2 is Naomi (dreamcast) so i mean it's not nothing. I wonder if older MAME versions don't try as hard? Looks like there are some other Naomi emulators too: https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Sega_NAOMI_and_variants#Emulators
