Nintendo "Red Tent" NOS *UPDFATE* JAMMAFIED

[level42]

You're most welcome Erik to have a go at it, when you play it you'll even like it more. I also didn't thought I would like it this much. .....

Hahaha, Hasan my friend, it sounds as if you've got the virus!  

Resistance is futile. We will assimilate you !

Damn, i wanted that Tent

Did he said when the other tent would come up for sale?

And oh yes it is such a beauty 

Within a couple of weeks, so keep an eye out, I won't be snatching it so it's all yours

Finally got the time to perfectionize it and make a JAMMA adapter without any sacrifice. So got the pinout of the tent and made a nice adapter that plugs in the stock connectors and leads to JAMMA to have some VS fun on this fantastic machine. There are some problems with it that needed to be overcome, one is that the colors for the Nintendo hardware are inverted and I had to find out how to invert it back for normal JAMMA play. Fortunately it was only a switch on the motherboard that does the trick. Easily turned back when you want to play the original hardware  The funny thing is that it's nowhere to be found on the web, you just need to check and find out for yourself. The next thing is that you need to customize your fingerboards with a dremel, did a quick job and wasn't all too clean, but hey I was in a rush and it works a charm, so no fuss. The other thing is that you have four control panels and you need to figure out which one you need to wire from JAMMA to VS. to make player 1 sit on one side and player two on the other side, but both in front of the monitor instead of the controls on the right side. Sounds difficult, but with some trial and error you get the job done hehe.. Anyway here is the result and I must say that I'm very happy with it and I'm very eager to play all sort of nice classics against or with 2 players in the future  8-)
Btw if anybody has some nice tips for 2 player games that can be played with 2 buttons against or together, please let me know and I'll start hunting

Very nice job Hasan, I like the way you handled this without changing anything on the original hardware/wiring.

Thnx Erik, yeah definitely didn't want fiddle with the cab, if this was not possible I simply would have just left it original, which is already awesome. This is just a wonderful bonus

wait... you got 4 player sunset riders going like that??? cool.

how about ninja turtles or simpsons??

[gyruss]

Very cool! I would also play Turtles and Simpsons and maybe some Double Dragon. I'm a bit jealous, the state of your cabinet is amazing!

Well Vib, technically it is possible, but haven't connected it to play 4 players yet. I don't think Sunset Riders supports 4 player btw. The boards that support 4 player should be easily connected, but like I said haven't wired for that yet, but will hunt down a simpsons or turtles to try that out

Thnx, I'm also really happy with it, just is a different experience when your cab is this clean, you know what I mean
