Supergun MAK Strike - stripped version.

Find here the new version of the Supergun MAK Strike stripped.

Features
  • Improved usability : All the user interfaces are now reachable from the side of the PCB.
  • Improved SCART support is now designed. It switches automatically to RGB and AV mode.
  • Stereo Audio and Mono audio, select between Stereo or Mono with a switch.
  • Audio SCART Sound interface
  • Audio Attentuation Circuit : Since nearly all of the arcade PCBs or Neogeo MVS system deliver pre-amped sound signals one has to tale care not to harm their TV equipment. Most user try not to turn their sound volume to max hoping that their home entertainment equipment will not damaged. We`ve now foreseen an Audio Attentuation Circuit in this supergun that protect connected media gear.
  • Standard MOLEX PC Power Supply Unit plug.
  • On and off switch
  • On and off switch status will be indicated by a power LED.
  • NEOGEO compatible controller ports.
  • Test and Service Tactile Press Button.
  • RGB 3 channel potentiometer with one axle : The colors can be adjusted by using RGB 3 channel potentiometer with one axle. This 3 channel potentiometer can be controlled by one axle. Mostly all know supergun uses three different potentiometer. Thus makes it difficult to achieve a clear white level on the screen. By using only one axle for all colors at same time this clear white level is no issue anymore.
  • Extended 6 Button Jamma Pinout: The new ArcadeForge Supergun MAK comes with extended 6 Button Jamma Pinout.

Key Strike is coming to town....

Hey,

 the new keyboard encoder Key Strike in slim design for Arcade Bartop and other units is coming.



It`s fully  Arduino compliant device and can be used for your Arduino scetches as well. Primary advantage is the screw terminals instead of the headers. We`ve foreseen the Arduino status led.

Then it`s a fully programmable Keyboard Encoder with

- Supports 15 inputs
- Standard default MAME Button Layout.
- Most common USB B Type connector 
- Programmable keyboard layouts. Custom Keyboard Layouts will be stored and available after reset. (will be released later)
- HID Keyboard
- Screw Terminals for all signals
- 5V and two GND screw terminals
- ISP header
- 4 Screw holes for mounting the PCB
- Arduino compliant
- hardware based USB framework
- Slim Design

The 2 Player version will come in short time.

ArccadeForge Bartop : The back side



Find here the ArcadeForge Bartop assembly of a 19-in-1 PCB with a normal Arcade PSU. Current wiring is Jamma.

Last picture shows the back of the bartop. It has lots of cutouts plus a very simple to remove back panel with keys.

ArcadeForge Bartop : Monitor Mount, CPO, Jamma Wiring and run with 19-in-1 PCB

Hey,

during the easter days I was mounting the LCD 17inch in the bartop. Second I populated the CPO, made the Jamma Wiring and put it a 19-in-1 Arcade PCB.

 



Test run of the hardware: Arcade PSU, 19-in-1 Arcade PCB, SLG3000

The monitor mount will be glued together.

I`ve made some drawing to improve later on the CNC plan.


Ok, this bars will not fit. :)

Ready mounted 17 inch lcd


Okay, Jamma Wiring / Harness ready with the multigame PCB. For better picture quality I`ve put in a Scanline Generator SLG3000

Roadtrip Daytona Part 1 : Warehouse Inspection

Hey, last sunday I was on roadtrip with Olli aka cebulba to a arcade warehouse (raid).  Was great, we started quite early and dropped my OW to Jörg aka PRC to gain some space in my gameroom.I took a pic from his Thunder something sitdown.

First we fetched a pole position near the Ijsselmeer, then we headed to the warehouse. Just enjoy the pic. We travelled with a van and a horse trailer. But we run out of space, so we started a second trip.

In the first trip we got a Pole Position sitdown, a racing seat and dedicated Rally-X cabaret.
