    Afaik, melody homebrews will not operate over nt mini fpga because it does not have the muscle to emulate the arm processor, which is orders of magnitude more powerful thsn the atari itself. You have to use emulation, or a physical harmony cart.

     

    That said, the harmony should definitely run on an fpga atari, if someone designs one with a cartridge interface.

    Ahh, understood.

    Watch the handheld legend site.  They have this high ball quality custom LCD they made for the GBC, and the ribbon/board combo inside are compatible with the NGPC.  IT will need a tiny ribbon adapter, but once they have them, you can backlight your NGPC on the cheap for $50.  It will be far cheaper, drop in too no less, than paying some twat like $300 on ebay for one with an annoying LOCA job with a hazy front light.

    Cool, thanks for the info.

    I have the BIOS only for the Mega CD, but every other system works perfectly without any extra BIOS (GG, SMS, GEN). Can someone advice if Coleco needs an additional bios file?

    I'd have to even open mine up to test it lol, but I'm just assuming it's needed if it's telling you that it can't load it, and you don't have it.

     

    edit:  we posted I guess at the same time lol.

    Thanks for the tip.

    One more thing: I have installed the latest jailbreak firmware on Mega Sg and everything works like a charm except Colecovision. Whenever I try to load a Coleco ROM (after having chosen the Coleco core), I get the message "Cannot load BIOS". Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Do you have the BIOS files, and have them where they are needed to be?

    Hey guys.  I posted an in-depth review of the Retro Electronik Arcade Supergun on my YouTube page.  A lot of info is in there about hooking up your MVS (as well as other jamma games) to your HDTV.  Check it out, I highly recommend this product for anyone who wants to get into collecting for the Neo Geo MVS without having the room for full size cabinets.  

     

     

    Mine has been pretty decent since getting it.  I connect to my PVM using SCART > BNC.  Haven't had any issues with it.  I have a HAS pre-ordered and that will take over once it is here.

    I used to own this game, like 3 years ago and it worked fine on my "HD Graphics" Gen 1.   Just a guess, some games don't work with 6 button controller, can't remember if this is one of them. 

     

    It works with mine.

    Terra Onion mentioned the possibility of an adapter that would fit the Sega CD expansion port so that it could be used as on ODE with 32X hardware... but they didn’t seem convinced that it was worth making. I know the Mega Sg doesn’t have 32X support (yet?) which would make it even less worth making an adapter, but I’d love to see an interface unit properly sized and designed for the Mega Sg and Mega SD combo. Perhaps Kev could add one more cartridge adapter to the plans? ;)

     

    Glad someone has finally preserved the Sega CD in FPGA but I really wish this thing didn’t cost more than a Sega CD. :(

     

    Hopefully MiSTer will catch up but they can always just make a slot for this if need be.

     

    Edit: Meant to point out that they have been working on Mega SD since 2016 and still don’t have something compelling enough to convince a typical Mega Sg owner to buy Mega SD over a real Sega CD with a stack of CD-Rs. See why Kevin thought it might not be worth doing? ;)

     

    I mostly want it for peace of mind versus unreliable CD hardware but that piece of mind can be satisfied for less just by having a 2nd “backup” Sega CD. I’d almost rather they approached it as a simple ODE that was installed in original Sega CD hardware considering the expense of this. It is relatively less complex too.

     

    It sounds like they paid a lot of attention to throttling load times for proper synchronization and yet their very next demonstration video after Sonic CD, Keiko Flying Squadron, has distractingly bad sync problems by the end of the opening cinematics. If they’ve been working on it since 2006, how likely are they to be able to fix this?

    I have a Mega SG, Original Model 1 and 2, a model 2 cd, and an Everdrive X7; I still bought the upcoming SD.  Using it for MSU-1 and no more cd drive load times and wear and tear.. easy decision for me.  Adding the 32x is icing on the cake.

    Me, I am on the other camp, I didn't feel the need for the SSSD3 (lucky me I had a Turbo-R) and I don't think I'll need this either.

    To put it in perspective though it's only 100US$ more than a MegaED x7 ... so it is worthy in a way (if you care to play the CD games) ... like the MegaED x7 it has full FM support for SMS games, they do not say if it supports Virtua Racing just to top it all off (recently MiSTer added support for it).

    Ok, via a tweet... right now it isn't supported.  Click on the tweet to look at the question and answer.

    It's playing in the video, so I'm assuming it's supported.  Look at 28:00 in the video.
