Great to see a 3DO thread here! My favourite console ever and I'm still obsessed with it today. I've done a few bits given my undivided passion and was lucky enough to interview Silent Software's Reichart Von Wolfsheild from Return Fire. My favourite games include: Return Fire, Space Hulk, WCIII, Road Rash, Escape From Monster Manor and Killing Time. I'm also find of Demolition Man, Night Trap, Sewer Shark & Supreme Warrior. I wanted to paste the article on Reichart but as I'm on my phone I'll bung a link and update later. Hope you like it - lots of 3DO history and an insight behind the scenes at 3DO etc... Also - damn sad to hear about the passing of Amiga/Lynx/3DO legend Dave Needle. https://retrogamingblog.co.uk/2015/05/14/reichart-von-wolfsheild-3do-return-fire-and-the-industry/

Hi all, So here's my attempt at Aaron's Blazing Star high score challenge. Not a great round for me, I'm pretty new to this one, but quite enjoyed this. I want to get a lot better!

Hi chaps, Just an update with the latest progress on my MVS cab - I have been documenting the progress. Apologies for what must seem like an onslaught of videos from me lately! There will be some time passing between them now, though there's some more plays from Rich's visit. His battery mod video can be found in the YouTube description or above in this thread. Enjoy!

Hi chaps, Here's the Windjammers 5 min play vid. Retro Rich recently popped by and made a few alterations to the cab, whilst he was down we managed to get our game on! ? I need much more practice, and a copy of the game!

It was great fun! Hopefully we'll film something else in the future! Be it at Rich's or back down my way again. I'm always ready to shoot! Hope the community like the vid and Rich's mod helps a few people out. I think he's a great asset and I can't wait to see what he does next. Lateral thinking meets Neo Geo - anything can happen!

We had fun! Meeting Rich was great and he's done a superb job on tweaking bits and fixing a few concerns on the cab. Goes without saying he's a real asset to the retro and arcade community and a good guy. I really appreciate all his input and advice and I'm stoked with the heklp he's put in. The battery modification he made to the PCB is in the can! literally. I've filmed the whole thing and edit is due to start this week, expect it sometime soon on his YouTube channel and another video of our gaming session to follow shortly after. Needless to say he annihilated me but next time I'll be prepared. Thanks again, Ash

Further to that I did a review of the analogue CMVS here! http://youtu.be/qf5t13lgnqE

Happy Birthday! This community is awesome to be apart of and thank you for having me.

Hi peeps, So I've made a start making some short restorations with the Electrocoin Single I nabbed this month. It's my first cab and I'm pretty green still but here's the first video of a series I'll do around this cabinet. You'll also see me playing Pulstar for a short time before technical issues start happening. http://youtu.be/VD5xO7htjcs Enjoy! Ash

Hi Anthony and crew! As some of you may know I am now the proud owner of an MVS Neo Geo Electrocoin Single cabinet. I’m still very green and learning the ropes. I’m partly clueless but I have begun my journey on cleaning up the cab, mainly with the help of Retro Rich. I’m just familiarising myself with the components and what-is-what. I'm currently trying to source a 19" CRT bezel and x2 dust covers for the sticks. Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be great! Every Wednesday (yes, that’s today) I do a broadcast from my twitch channel at twitch.tv/retrogamingblog and tonight at approx 8:30pm GMT / 3:30pm EST I will be streaming a quick tour of the cabinet and playing through a couple of games. Warning though - I’m terrible! Technical problems may ensue as well! Hope to see you there. Ash

Just wanted to say thanks to anyone who stopped by my stream this afternoon, and a thank you to Anthony. It was great to chat with you! If anyone is interested I'll be streaming every Wednesday 3pm EST (8pm GMT) at twitch.tv/retrogamingblog - I always start off with a few Neo Geo games before moving into other systems. I'll start exporting my Neo streams to YouTube and post them up and give a 30 mins heads up before the stream starts. Thanks again! Ash

So happy to hear SNKP revisiting their IPs once again. I'm very much looking forward to revisiting the Samurai Shodown series. As strange as it would seem I would really like to see a new Neo Drift Out and Turf Masters. ?

It looks beautiful! Nice work!
