I've decided to consolize my MVS for fun and convenience. I was going to go with a small aluminum case but then decided, why not put it in a AES shell. I actually found one on neo-geo.com
I have not finished but have started. The hard work is done, getting the board to fit and getting the slot wide enough for the MVS cart. Fortunatelt I was able to do this to the slot without making it look homemade ect.
I thought I'd track my progress in a thread here:
OK, so I might be able to get some original AES parts, maybe not. I'm moving forward as if I can't to be sure this project gets done.
reset switch:
controller ports:
OK, restored the shell. No more scratches or scuffs ect. This came out PERFECT, was amazed at how clean it looks now. You can't even notice that I cut the cart slot. Used some bondo on the cart slot also then sanded it. This vinyl die works wonders. I used the same stuff when making my stick.
I was happy I could save some of the logos also, the other wording on the system was to scuffed up to save. the dust doors stand out for some reason in the pic but don't in person.
Getting closer and closer.... got the power switch installed and anchored. The only things I have left really are the power and AV jack on the back and that will be easy.
I'm gonna have to have the universal bios installed then I can finish up with the wiring. I have a small bit of work to finish on the controller ports but that has to wait till I'm mounting the board in. Also a small power LED. Then it's done and ready to play!!
So close.....
All I really have left is to solder on the controller ports to the board, then the power. Screw the board onto the shell and screw it all shut.
One of the screw bezels is busted but I can fix that.... it's close to being done. I wired up the AV port tonight and it works fine. It's only RGB right now but that's what I use. It's in stereo also.
OK... so all I have left is to wire the controller ports and power jack to the mobo and it's done!! I have the controller jacks wired up... I just have to attach the wires from them to the mobo.
DONE!!!! happy it's over with.
when I took these pics I hadn't put the black plastic inside the memory card holder.... it's an open slot in the pics but isn't now.
the cam's ok... it was just to dark for the setting I had it on and was to late and lazy to fuck with it.
new pics with the cart inserted....
