Sh*t. I'm going to build a supergun, aren't I?

[bartre]

alright, PSU problem solved, got it tested and working great.
fixed up a couple other things, and i'm just about ready to go!

as for a case, i was probably going to use this, as i can't find too much that would work, it seems:
http://www.polycase.com/wa-35

one other question though; I have seen several superguns wrap the external portion of the harness with mesh wire sleeving and taping it off with some heat shrink.
what size sleeving/heat shrink should I use if i want to do the same, and what should i use as a grommet for the hole in the case i'll have to cut?

[majors]

Dunno the size, but a PC mod store should have the cable sleeving and shrink. For the grommet bushing, I'd just steal one from another PSU.

so, a semi related question here -
i'm also going to consolize a neo geo mobo when this is done.
i'm seeing them listed on YJA as low as 1,500 yen for a MV-1FZ.
would it be worth it to import one off there (in a box of other stuff, of course) versus buying one off ebay?

[majors]

You can prolly track one down on the forums if you not in a hurry. I know I'm on the watch for a 1 or 2 slot for Blue. You thinking $30-40 range? Are you dead set on the smaller 1FZ model? I have one currently, but I'm not hard set on it if I find a MV-1, I'd swap and sell it.

[bartre]

honestly, not really dead set, but it seems like a good one to me.
basically, the only one i don't want to use is a MV-1, just too damned big.

awesome, eventually i will build a supergun....backlog project

Thats going to be my next project just need the cash

[bartre]

so, supergun is done!

a vid from a couple days ago, i've done some touching up since then and all is well!

question is, what should my next PCB be?

[Mishran]

You got turtles... Lucky bastard.

Not easy to find for a decent price. Good choice and a hardy congrats on the supergun!

Congrats man,though i would have used a 6 button genesis controller instead.I all ways found the 6 button more comfortable then the 3.As for arcade pcb suggestion if i had a supergun it be these.

Aliens
Alien vs Predator
Battle Circuit
Willow
Sunset Riders

oh, and for the final touches:






all in all:
happ PSU
jrok 4 video encoder
2 controller ports
RGB, Component, S-video, Composite video out
attenuated audio
external connector for kick harness (IE SF, MK, etc.)
test/service switches

[xelement5x]

Wow, looks very nice!

[roflmao]

Agreed.  I want one now.

[bartre]

okay, so a slight problem here.
supergun's all done and no issues with that.
but i bought a few neo geo controllers to use with it, and i can't get any of the neo cd pad type controllers to work.
i've also got 2 of the neo geo bean type sticks, and they work great, so i know it's not the pinout that's wrong.
any ideas what i should be doing?

[Duo_R]

It's your DB15 connectors they aren't deep enough for the Neo CD controllers to fully reach the pins. Mod your Neo CD controller ports with standard DB15s
