In for servicing is a Neo Geo 6 Slot MVS board. The audio used to fade out shortly after power on but a full capacitor replacement sorted that out. I swapped the old clock battery for a rechargeable coin cell too. These boards are large and in charge! 😎
I'm getting back to arcade board repairs. Latest is an Irem M92 with bent pins on the GA22 chip. It took 20 minutes under the microscope with sewing needles and desoldering braid to straighten the legs. Resoldered legs to pads, confirmed connections, and the board works perfectly
Playing Batsugun tonight. #shmup
Now that the Irem M92 #arcade Multi is complete and starting to ship, I’m selling off several of my spare M92 game boards that I used in testing. Each one gets a fresh capacitor replacement and jumpers installed where the Multi requires different settings for future-proofing. 😎
@_ShootTheCore published a quick writeup on his repair of a faulty clock crystal on a bootleg Cave DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou board.
I’m back at the workbench today updating a CPS3 security cartridge with the Darksoft UltraBIOS and programming a set of CPS3 UltraSIMMs. I’m not much of a fighting game guy but the art and presentation on these games is gorgeous. #arcade
Just in time for Christmas, @_ShootTheCore published a writeup on repairing faulty art assets on a Cave CV1000 Muchi Muchi Pork #arcade board. Happy Holidays!
It’s a good day to dump a Cave CV1000 #arcade board. Major kudos to Buffi for his research and scripts that make this possible.
❤️😍
Today’s project was tackling rust on my Ninja Baseball Bat Man #arcade board. The GND traces already had a rough appearance-perhaps someone worked on them before-and didn’t cover the exposed copper after? I used clear conformal coating so that any rust recurrence will be obvious.
