    Has anyone here used an NTSC Wii with the Ultimarc Wii AV adapter? I'm considering ordering one to connect to an arcade monitor. I'll be using an NTSC Wii and will be trying to force homebrew to output as PAL60 to enable the RGB output (otherwise NTSC Wiis do not natively output RGB). All Wii PAL/NTSC hardware is the same, it's just a software difference.

     

    Just looking for reviews/input before placing the order, thanks

    Those sure look sweet! Especially yours, with the matching bezel… or it that an overlay? Didn't see any prices readily on the site… how much are they again?

     

    I think around $25 or so plus shipping. Might have been about $35 for one delivered from Italy.

     

    I've got the YASI Vectrex screen overlay, and then the wrap includes the art that goes around the bezel area as well as the sides. These are perfect for setting up on a counter when having people over. Would really like if a Star Castle one was made. I might have to design that myself.

    Hi, I've placed some new and fun themed pinball t-shirts and arcade t-shirts online.

    They are available in a variety of colors (in addition to the samples). Made with quality, soft fabric. About 10 biz days to get them to you in the CONUS.
    Just visit: http://www.ArcadeMade.com - You can enter coupon "ATARIAGE" for a nice discount good for the next week or so.
    Some samples... there are quite a few more on the site. Anyway, I had fun making them and I'll be adding more, if not only for my own enjoyment.

    Thanks again!

     

    I've had this converted to a vector image, and printed it out and put on foam core. Finally, I cut it out with an X Acto knife and mounted it on my arcade wall. It is about 5 feet wide.

     

    Pacman was the first game I owned on a home console, and it was for the Atari 5200 system. Each of the arcade ports to the 5200 had the text "Arcade Action" next to them in the original brochure. I now have all the real arcade games of the Atari 5200 games I had as a kid so this is a nice touch.

    Try this. This would be an easy conversion to inkscape/illustrator.

    You are awesome! Thank you so much! I'm going to make a large sign with this to go in my arcade room. The 5200 was the first home console I ever owned. I now have the actual arcade machines for all the 5200 games I had when I was a kid. This sign will bring it all together! My username is ArcadeAction on other forums.

    Hi, does anyone have a 5200 Trak Ball box that could scan the front for me? Specifically I am looking to get a high resolution scan of the stylized text "Arcade Action" that appears on the front.

     

    If anyone could scan that portion and/or the whole portion with that text and the Centipede arcade machine on the back that would be great! I want to use that text for a project!

     

    Here is what the front looks like: http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag160/TrekMD/RVG%20Images/Atari%205200%20Track-Ball_zpswtd2mzhr.jpg

     

    Here is the back: http://www.old-computers.com/museum/hardware/atari_5200_trackball_box_1.jpg

     

     

     

    Thanks!
