The Official Cool PCB You Just Got Thread!

[opt2not]

first progear, and now these?!

god dammit, stop making me jealous

Just working my way down the list! But I think I'm pretty much done with buying any new boards now. I started this 2 years ago, and I believe I got all the games I want now, except for a perhaps few cheaper classics that I would like to own, down the line.
But hopefully this'll be the last time I post in this thread!

well congratulations, I'm sure it has been one hell of a journey!

Nice! How much did you get that Super Turbo for? Been wanting to get one myself at some point.

I got these in a trade, but we priced ST at $200.

Hi could you tell me if your Salamander 2 PCB JAMMA has the same defect on the mask rom 15H/S AAA0 BAD ?
A lot of Salamander 2 have same defect and work fine.
Why there is that defect ?
How to repair it ?

My board has the same error.

There was a thread on Arcadeotaku about this sometime back. I think everyone reported their boards having the same error.

[AKRATEN]

I got FixEight in the mail this week.

[professor ganson]

Just about to get:

Strikers 1999

Really looking forward to giving this game another chance.

[Matskat]

It took me a few years to get this one. It's also one of the most important titles from my childhood, so I'm really happy I finally got it

This is bad fucking ass.

I'm jealous. Bad. As. Fuck.

I could put my hands on a new sealed copy of the Saturn version called "Layer Section" definitely not as sexy as the board, but better than nothing.
By the way, I've been told the Saturn version (when played in tate mode) is a perfect port, somebody can confirm ?

Well, no port is perfect, but some are extremely close. While the gameplay and graphics are nearly perfect, the extends are not set at the arcade default (not sure on specifics). I also don't know how the sound and music compares.

Thanks for your reply

[system11]

Yes it's complete and mint. What an amazing game!

[rancor]

SSSOOOOOOOOOOO Jealous!!!!!!

As chempop said, the extend rate is locked at a different setting than the arcade... and since the arcade game's rank is affected by lives in stock that's probably different too. Randorama's ST claims the difficulty is lower by default in the Saturn port - bumped up one notch it feels about right. The SS port does play a fine game of Rayforce in its own right, though; all mechanics feel dead-on and the graphics are crisp. Like Darius Gaiden it's not technically "arcade perfect" but still more than worth having.

Besides the interlacing, Taito Memories II Joukan (PS2)'s emulation of Rayforce is probably the most accurate way to play the arcade game on a console. Has TATE (rotates in both directions), configurable buttons + game settings and controls perfectly.

Price paid

2000 euros. Not cheap, but worth every euro to me - it's like a supercharged version of my favourite Cave game.

[Casey120]

Very, very nice , even with a JapJac finger

[moh]

wow...thats a pricey one

congratulations nonetheless.

[drunkninja24]

MY BODY IS READY

[emphatic]

MY BODY IS READY

Congrats on the best shmup in existence.

[AKRATEN]

^ I totally agree

[moh]

HOT DAMN, SHIT JUST GOT REAL.

AIN'T NO PARTY LIKE A KETSUI PARTY!

[drunkninja24]

I concur as well. I've had the 360 version since it came out, and it's definitely been my all-time favorite shmup, if not favorite game ever since. Still pushing myself to getting the loop, but I'll get it, and I'll do it on the actual board now

[system11]

Nemesis - yay

[CIT]

First a box full of watches, the Mushi Campaign, then this. Did you win the lottery or something?

Or are you the only guy on this board who actually has a job?

[system11]

I'm on-call 2 weeks in 4, we get paid extra for it

[system11]

Received a boxfull today - two sold as working and 6 unknown/faulty ones.

Slapfight - working
Cabal - working
Altered Beast - sold as broken, they'd tested it on a JAMMA rig, it works fine
Shao-Lin's Road - sold as unknown, already repaired it.
Skykid - sold as unknown, already repaired it.
Legendary Wings - sold as unknown, totally dead.
Jackal - sold as unknown, garbage on boot.
Soul Edge - sold as faulty, unfixable. Not even great for parts, just an amp and a few RAM.

Epic win already having 3/6 dead ones running.

Also a couple more a few days ago:

Ghosts n Goblins - working
Section Z - tile issues, will repair this one.

[RGC]

Ghosts n Goblins

Was this the non jamma ebay one with the very nice BIN price, about 2 days ago? If so, you beat me to it by about 5 mins.

[Artemio]

Fire Shark =) US version, I thought I'd never get this game.. but it showed up in a local auction just a few days ago.

[moh]

Legendary Wings! YEAH!
