So happy woke up this morning to find two random birthday treats, a automated 'happy birthday wish' from Nintendo and the Mrs god bless her, bought me a absolutely mint copy of NeoGeoFreak magazine (March-1998) complete with its/there highly sought-after monthly posters.

Problems? £24 for a 20 year old non english 'magazine'! Madness But love it!

:D

The Stone Age Gamer version really is tempting for me seeing its here in the US already. It makes me what to purchase this one the most. I like the VHS style box for it Tanooki.

 

Anthony..

Same here, would work for storage as its not like I'd stop using my existing carts. I know it sounds batty but I'd be semi-tempted to peel the label off as they didn't make it. To me that's no better than those thieving pricks who steal prototype ROMs and sell them for profit placing their name on the game label and sometimes title screen code. Taking credit for other peoples work is a deceitful cowardly act.

So the way I read it from your guys comments, have and are SAG kind of like the 'official' US distributor for NSD? There just NeoSD cart that they have re-branded and re-labled?

MJ

Yes money talks and bs walks, you being in that area of the world that's the wise choice. Here though, conversion of the USD to euro to pay, and then the shipping from Spain to the US makes the price the same without the weeks of waiting to get it. So no savings either way other than time and a support system for replacement if it failed.

 

And yes SAG has setup a pyramid deal with various kit makers since they seem to mostly come from Europe and they get sellers rights in the NA/US market. Often they're the one if not always (not 100%) so you pay their higher price and get deceitfully rebranded goods acting like they made it. All the Ukrainian KRIKzz everdrive/sd2snes units all end up with CAG stickers and packaging as do other things they peddle. They shouldn't do it, but they do, or at least they should give the option to get non-tampered goods for less if you don't want their reprinted manuals and boxes.

LOL, never herd that before, Money talks... Thats a great phrase! :)

Thats fairly cleaver, making money from rebranding items.

So the carts are new just with the stickers etc changed? Not preowned or seconds as such?

Looking at there page, the NeoSD I no boxes, labels and manuals shouldn't mean much but Neo fan, well I no I am, are a fickle bunch and I prefer the SAG set up. From NeoSD we just get some folded paper, an anti static bag in a brown 'MVS like" box. When it arrives there is a bit of you that thinks, this was nearly 500 big ones?

My friend last night came round with his new Raspberry Pii he'd just brought showing me every Vectrex to N64 game made on a 256GB card, in total cost him £45 to my nearly 5£00 for just the NeoSD cart. I was trying to explain to him you can't put a price on playing the Neo games on actual Neo hardware! But his little RP setup was very cool and played awesome with the 2 USB SNES pads!

Have you guys heard of the company Jamma Nation X (JNX)? They make arcade related adapters and other things, but this one caught my attention because i own a 4 slot mvs cabinet and always thought about swapping the board out with other pcb. After a few minutes of research i found that the multi slot cabinets use stereo (which is why mine sounds so nice!) and almost all other JAMMA pcb use mono, so you ruin your pcb and maybe even your speakers if you plugged it in. I just bought this adapter, which converts the sound so you can play other jamma pcb in your multi slot mvs cabinet. I also bought Joe & Mac Returns and Ehrgeiz pcb to try it out! If everything goes smooth I will probably make videos on it. A new adapter is coming out to play Capcom 6 button fighters on your mvs. They will play like samurai showdown where a+b is your heavy attack and c+d is your heavy kick. I have a X-Men Children of the Atom board I have never been able to play! Finally pulled it out of the old cabinet and cleaned it. cant wait to try it all out!

Hey MJ,

 

Yes, that's correct, it's the same as the version that you acquired. No difference. It's just the SAG version has additional material to include for your value. I personally want this version for the main reason for it being in the country, rather than dealing with the concerns of import tax, customs, etc with the NeoSD over the big pond we have!

 

I personally have some hassle obtaining merchandise from overseas at the post office. Ever since the 9/11 attacks here in New York City, the branch that I have to pick the games up wants me to fill out forms. They worry constantly regarding terroristic threats and materials in packages that can be harmful to the public. Sometimes it takes me 30 minutes to fill them out.

 

So the SAG version really gives me a break on these types of headaches. :)

 

Anthony...

Hey Red,

 

Glad to see you back again. Always glad to see your postings. :)

 

Ah, I see you became familiar with Jamma Nation X. James does great work over there and he can make to a nice CMVS for you on request. Very nice information that you provided regarding the new adapter and look forward on reading more about it.

 

Thank you for the pics as well Red. Looks really cool. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I've considered getting one of those canakit pi3 all in one kits off amazon for like $70~USD but the big thing is I doubt I'd use it greatly enough. Also I'm just not skilled in setting up android boxes from scratch. Using, side loading, general navigating is fine, but I'm not advanced user and really don't care to be which probably is sad.

 

Experimenting with that inane retroarch I've had nothing but headaches trying to get anything Neo Geo MVS related to load let alone be SEEN by the menu. The word is that the idiots are using the crude MAME build that nitpicks specific versions of each game dump despite having valid sets in my possession so it won't work. Call me lazy or stubborn but I don't want to download some 25GB~ MAME rom set to pick up like 200MB if that of Neo Geo roms as that's unacceptable. I could easily toss anything else non-arcade based at it fine with retropie and it would be of no concern, but I'd want Neo-Geo to work if I didn't feel like firing up my machine so it's a bit infuriating.

I followed him on Instagram and saw an unfortunate post saying he isn't making any money off of the adapters so he won't be making them anymore after the Phase adapter I mentioned. I hope I can get one and I hope he can get the recognition he deserves. Such a great asset to the arcade community it would be sad to see him stop making things.

Oh wow. I didn't know that Red.

 

I hope he continues to do so. You're right, he offer so much to the community that it would be tragic if he stop. :(

Thanks for the best wishes Ant appreciate it, been a good day all-round.

Also have you seen this problem before? I really need help so would appreciate any direction you can suggest.

 

Im having a problem with the sound on my HomeCartSystem.

Now this issues happens with what ever cart I use, including the NeoSD.

Its a loud distorted screech the music and the sound effects play underneath and some games are affected more than others.

Metal Slug it hardly happens but SvC gets it quiet bad, LastBlade 1 and 2 have it really bad!

Now Ive tried expensive professional circuit board alcohol cleaner on the carts and the cart connectors on the console.

And it will do it on the NeoSD which is a 'brand new' cart.

Im just hoping someone knows what it is and can help?

 

I Hope the clips will show in this post as Ive been trying for over an hour now so fingers crossed you'll all be able to see them OK.

Hopefully somebody in the UK can help me.

Of corse I'll pay for labour and time.

 

Clip one

 

Clip two

 

Clip three

 

So Ive said it a million times but somebody pleas help! Has anyone seen this problem before? And In the clips sorry about my voice (paralysed vocal cords), PLEASE HELP!

You're welcome MJ. Hope you enjoyed your day.

 

In regards to your question, It could possibly be your cartridge slot pins that might me damage. or not connecting correctly When I use to play my AES games. it made that terrible sound as well. Either that or a bad trace somewhere.
