I've been meaning to ask on the Neo-Geo forums but I'll ask here first if anyones got some input.

My MVS cab is a 2 slot cabinet, that has a 4 slot board in it. Its obviously been replaced by the previous owner, and he got it from a place in vancouver (pacific vend stickers plastered everywhere).

Now this thing has some wonky as fuck behaviors.

Previous owner says the contacts were dirty. Its displaying I guess shifted...

Came across a rather niffy CIC mod for the NES that involves soldering 2 wires to the board.

If anyone wants any information on this, I'd be happy to help.

Could a faulty limit switch on a Sega CD(2) lead to damaged gears and the sled attempting to go further away from the center than it should, or could damaged gears be mimicking a faulty limit switch?

Bought an "as is" Model 2 and I'm trying to get it up and running correctly.
Reads discs, but seems to take a bit long to load at times (I have no "properly working" point of reference so I can't really say on that one) and tracking for audio at times.
These are often times accompanied with grinding noises coming from the sled; The reason I'm not sure it's a limit switch issue is because one of the gears is a bit chewed up and that the grinding noise happens both when the assembly is near the center(what a limit switch problem would cause) as well as it pushing all the way out to the very edge.

If it is a limit switch issue (and as such need new gears or something along those lines) would someone be able to point me in the direction of decent instructions on how to go about either repairing said switch/bringing it back into proper alignment, or if it would be possible to replace the switch?

I have some video of the drive in action, but I still need to cut out the useless junk and/or possibly retake it as it the focus is debatable at times.

TFTD could look spectacular with a modern game engine.

It's hard, very, very hard. Why? The devs were responding to feedback from UFO Defense players who complained that the game was too easy because it had the difficulty bug that nobody knew about. Certain additions to TFTD such as melee weapons were due to player suggestions as well. "Some of the aliens have melee attacks, so the player should also be able to use them."

UFO Defense never gets that hard even on Superhuman and it's almost a breeze once you know what everything does and when it does it. Knowing TFTD intimately will just help you survive...

Valiant
or
Valiant Vaccinated + Trailblazer?

>>2858198

Vaccinated can be run with any gameplay mod, not just Trailblazer.
Valiant by itself is still the truest experience, though.

Atari 2600 for arcades 'sit down for 5 mins and play a game' although I played HERO on the 2600 for almost 8 hours the first time I played it

Snes for jrpgs, arcade ports, and a few weird shmups but also megaman X, PILOTWINGS and more.

Snes is more expensive than the Atari overall, upto you is the depth of what you'd like to play, I own both.

They're protagonists so they had to look different.

Looks like a tactical uniform, really. The extra padding in the elbows, and the vest pouches somewhat support that. If memory serves, most of the officers you encounter in the games I have played were just in their dress blues.

Better graphics, resolution and soundtrack, it's based on the megadrive version so if you played the snes you'll find the level design a bit weird.
The only way to run this thing on a modern os is to install windows 3.1 on dosbox and mount it to cd-rom drive, pretty annoying.

Other than graphics it's identical to the megadrive port. Also, play on hard mode.

>>2866102
i have it on windows vista 32-bit

>Why can't other N64 bros admit it?

I don't think anybody on /vr/ is contesting that the N64 had a smaller library. That's beside the point, though. People enjoy the platform for the quality of games available for it. I've also felt it worthwhile to invest in a WonderSwan Color, even though it has comparatively much fewer games than the GBA. There's no other way for me to play the Makai Toushi SaGa remake. Plus I did think the WSC remakes of FF1 and 2 were much more solid than their GBA counterparts.

Anyway,...

Arguing that a library is inferior is a completely pointless exercise. If my favorite games of all time were Super Mario 64 and OoT, then the N64's library would be superior to the PS's.

PS1 had a bigger and better library but it's hard not to admit that the N64 had a disproportionately large number of influential games.

Why not?

The soul in the Deku Mask is from Deku Butler's son. Damn feels....

>>2865834
because muh feels

Don't read guides, don't listen to people. The game isn't the hardest, so you can forge your own way through it pretty comfortably.

There's a ton of random shit that can happen though (and stuff that you won't see coming and can't exactly prepare for), so multiple runs are definitely better.

Seek out the side quests

What the fuck am I reading? Do you even know what Mary Sue means?

Meant to quote OP, im still laughing though holy shit.

>>2863970
Dunno about essential, but there were a couple of games like Mother 3 and Seiken Densetsu 3, or maybe Terranigma? Haven't really kept track of what's gotten rereleases on actual official platforms.

>>2863970
Just look on RHDN for fully completed translations that appeal to you.

>>2864129
I have been ones I got so far were

Romancing Saga - SO HAPPY ITS DONE
Romancing Saga 3 - Has some glitches but I loved it before
Gunmans Proof - Tried it out before but want to actually beat it
Live a Live - Same as above
Dragon Ball Z Super Saiya Densetsu - Want to try out the new translations instead of the crap I played back in the day

Sonic

>>2859192
Thanks

My favorite NES game is probably Monster Party out of sheer absurdity. If including Famicom stuff tho then my favorite is Gimmick, which is definitely the better game.

released too late

Who said this game flopped badly?

Don´t get me wrong, those games are great too

No I don't read your eviews
