Bit-district is considering selling combo sound/volume pots PCB’s for Midway T & U-Unit “daughter boards”. Many Midway games (Mortal Kombat, MK2, NBA Jam, etc) require 3 separate PCBs (and ribbon cables between them) that often get lost or damaged. In short, they’re a mess and most are sold for parts. BD plans to design a […]
M.U.G.E.N. for Sega Genesis & Mega Drive is aiming to be a 60FPS homebrew game engine to create new fighters with. A very exciting project that’s taken shape quickly. http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?31948-M-U-G-E-N-for-SEGA-Megadrive

The CPS2 conversion could be burned to EEPROMs and installed on a real […]
Owners of jailbroken PS Vitas can use a registry setting to switch from Limited Range RGB (16-235) to Full Range RGB (0-255), by simply changing CONFIG/DISPLAY/color_space_mode and CONFIG/DISPLAY/rgb_range_mode from 0 to 1, using the RegistryEditor app by some1psv. Both OLED/Fat and LCD/Slim models benefit from the change and it’s unclear exactly why Sony opted […]
Modology posted a very nice Home Arcade System “HAS” Supergun setup guide for people who’ve never used a Supergun before. A lot of people have the misconception that the power supply connection is difficult, but as you can see at 01:53, it’s very simple and only takes a minute. Consolize your arcade PCBs and start […]

I posted a write-up about making 3-4 Player Supergun harnesses for Konami arcade game PCBs like TMNT, X-Men, Sunset Riders, etc. I also show how to make stereo audio leads for them. However, if you own a Home Arcade Systems “HAS” Supergun, you can simply add-on the 3-4 player adapter board and a Konami harness. […]

I’m such a huge fan of his restores that I dedicated a root folder to them in the Mega EverDrive Lists. He’s currently hard at work on a huge Street Fighter remaster.
