Silly me, I forgot that Cyberpunk wasn't science fiction!

Anyway, post some cyberpunk pics that look similar in style to Helgeson's rush-job.

No can do.  You're the one who insists that it's "cyberpunk".  His MVS doesn't remind me of anything seen in Snatcher.

STFU, nothing's ever good enough for you.

She looks pretty good, but what color is the paint?  I hope that it isn't the bloody brown that it looks like on my screen.

Came out pretty nice MH, especially for quick work.  What did you use for the paint?  I found that there's really not much you can do to keep the paint from chipping around cart slots.  Priming and painting works fine, but still chips.  I've been considering powdercoating a cover like some have done, but that would take a bit of time to do nicely.

Have you tried using pre-painted coil stock?  PVDF paint should hold up nicely to just about anything you can throw at it.

Nothing looks more sad than PC power supply cords.  That's why I power my PC with pure thought energy.  Also, tr00 consoles have the wires coming from the back, not the sides.  Wires coming from the sides is just teh ghey.  And that's not cyberpunk.  If it were cyberpunk, it'd have blinking lights and holographics and shit.

Damn straight!  Duos are uber ghey - power cord and a/v cord on the same side.  Only a syphilitic hobo would want such a lame piece of hardware.... wait, I'm not a hobo.  :roll:

Is it possible to bevel out the AES cart slot some more, and then unscrew it and replace the AES cart port with an MVS?

I do know that there is a converter that will let you play the mvs carts on your aes, but they can be expensive.

And according to everyone else, they're shit. I'm talking about a literal swap of the cartridge connectors and widening the cart slot on the AES.

so the Turbo and Duo are not tr00 consoles?  [-X

I don't think it would work properly.

Why would you want AES compatibility?  MVS destroys AES in every way every single time!  It even has better graphics!

1. No, it's the same damn thing.

2. I DON'T WANT AES COMPATIBILITY! I WANT AN MVS THAT HAS AN AES CASE!!! You would lose all AES compatibility   by performing the swap anyway.

Yea,it was a fast job. I agree on the cart ports too,I have seen that peoples cart port areas over time just chip away,esp so because some carts have  a tad tighter fit,even powdercoating will chip after a bit,even if it is baked on. I used some car paint by Dupli-Color. I know the pic quality sucks ass. The color is actually velvet red,which is a tad darker then normal red,which is what I wanted. Basically I strayed off from the normal Big Red color scheme.

I opted for no audio jacks,I myself just didn't see the point,as I have no plans to sell it and I have tons of the ear phone to RCA cords and adapter sets I have made and the 2-Slot has 2 earphone outs.

Michael, you'd probably know the answer so I'll ask you: Is it possible to bevel out the AES cart slot some more, and then unscrew it and replace the AES cart port with an MVS?

I think I read KPJ does a mod like this,I am not sure. Dean would know more on that then me most likely.


That looks absolutely amateur-tastic in every way!  And by that I mean "awful".  Wires going everywhere... a case that even a first year metal shop student would be ashamed of.  Geez.  Sculpt and mold a nice plastic case, and make it look "kick ass"!  Not "like ass".
Why not sculpt and mold a nice plastic case for you AES stick,and make it look "kick ass"! Not "broke ass".

So Joe,I take it you are saying the TG-16,Nes,Genesis 3,Pc Engine,Supergrafx,ect are not tr00 consoles? I guess only Baldwins know best....

For once Joe is about right on everything but the graphics. The RGB quality can be better off a MVS btw.

NES is the only console I have where the AV port is on the side.  My TG-16 + CD has 'em on the back, though NEC is quite the confused console maker.  Genesis 3 doesn't even count as, well, anything.  Imagine a DVD player or whatnot with the AV jacks on the side.  I see this A LOT in the console mod community... there seems to be an overwhelming urge to put the jacks on the side.  My AES has an RGB bypass so it is better than the typical AES RGB.  I've never seen an MVS with a proper RGB jack, at least one that I can buy a SCART cable for.
