    Are they going to update the cores anytime soon? I got mine yesterday and it came with the latest cores. However, when I went to play Heist, it would keep rebooting the game when I went to play the game.

    Anyone else have this issue with Heist? I know my copy works because I tried it on a standard CV with no issues.

    Hey guys!

    Here is a link for my let's play of last blade 1 on the Neo Geo CD with its dreadful load times.




    I've been told the 2nd game is a lot better on the Neo Geo CD.

    Have any of you guys played the Neo Geo CD version of this game? If so, what are your thoughts on it?

    Just bought an Atari Jaguar Raiden off of him. He was awesome enough to throw in a Cybermorph overlay which I had no idea existed!

    Super fast and smooth transaction and was a pleasure to deal with! :-)

    Hey guys!

    Sorry for the delay, I got good news: it's fixed!

     

    Apparently doing tireless googling, I found out it was a POKY chip POT adjustment that needed to be made.

     

    So after doing that it works!

     

    I'll be posting pics as well as a link to a video of it in action on my YouTube channel.

    Cro$$bow: Yea I have a total of 3 5200 consoles: 1 as my main unit that works perfectly, 1 backup unit that now has the right and down direction issue, and 1 extra (selling) unit that also has the right and down direction issue.

     

    The controller is fine, it's one of those gold plated controllers from best electronics and it works on my main unit.

     

    The MUX chips can't be the issue since I've replaced them before in my backup unit. I also re-replaced then last night and got the same result.

     

    So my final thought is it has to be a bad solder joint somewhere on the board. Which seems to be a growing theme ever since I moved into my house. I've already had to reflow solder my AV switch box, my top loader NES and now apparently my 2 5200 units lol.

     

    Like I said I'll keep you guys updated on progress, Thanks!

    Hey guys!

    So I have some unfortunate news, upon testing the console I found out the right and down directions don't register.

     

    Oddly enough it does the same thing to my back up console as well. So I was checking out my backup console, that I have replaced the controller chips in, and I ended up re-replacing the chips with new ones with the same result.

     

    So I talked to my one friend and he said it might be a simple solder reflow to fix the issue.

     

    So I'm gonna check traces and reflow solder the controller ports and see if that fixes it.

    I had no idea this was going to happen, last time I tested it was last year when I moved into my house. That's old electronics I guess :-/

     

    Don't worry I'll keep you guys updated, I apologize for any inconvenience.

     

    If you still want pictures of condition and what not I'll add them tonight when I get home from work.
