It is and we could roll right in on a "handtruck" not sure if that is the right translation.

Yeah its a big dummy, but it puts a big stupid smile on my face, when I trip over it in the living room Cheesy

I bought my first arcade, its a generic cabinet.

Have a Pandoras Box 4 in it + a Street Fighter 2 PBC, when I hook that up it boots but the runs vertical over the screen, but thinking it may be the PB4 Jamma Connector, but unsure.

Also I have to check the harness, the PB4 P2 joystick will not move down.

Anyways I am happy with my first one, but I found out there really isnt room for it in a small apartment Tongue and pricey compared to US prices, 500 bucks.... but now its mine Smiley

Okay got it powered.

It's a ND-3000 board, if any got some info on it, I be happy if you share.

The Front end is a picture of the game and ROMs are stored in zips on the board.

1944 looked laggy with the shadows, Ghost and Ghouls looked okay speed wise.

I need to find a decent Composit to VGA converter now.

Just to be clear, we have not yet had time to power to one of these bad boys, so to that end, there is still some unanswered questions.

we are wiring a edge connector no soldering planed (dunno if it will be needed to get a stable endproduct). So it should be fairly easy to rig it to another board, if we label it well too.

I am not getting the part with the serial (English is a second language).
Do the ROMs contain a serial that needs to match with the board?

Will take the PSU into consideration.

Thanks for your input.

Hi Lesoleil,

The board has onboard 2GB with the roms, no SDcards seems to be sold with these, so tough luck I guess.
Could you help out a newbie here, what is the significance on the serial match? on the roms on board or is it the SD and board ?

The VGA is dead, not connected to anything, the reseller says the producer had planed to make an addon for that, but never got it done.

Got the Connector layout for it, no video in the Jamma port on it.

A working Jamma CAB here is around 600$+, a decent one 900+, have yet to get lucky and find something nice not costing more then I have on the budget for it, so for this we are building our own, with the Wee-cade as a template.

Back to the board
So I have composite out, need to find a composite to vga converter that will not break my wallet Smiley

We have a few 19" 4:3 PC monitors for the project.

Thinking about getting my hands on a few AT PSU, but open to suggestions what to get, must assume I need to power a converter aswell, trying to keep it light as well, but its our first build and we are not expecting the next revolution in cabinet building Smiley , just hoping for a decent result and some hours spend gaming Cheesy

Got them for a round 50$ I know they need a VGA Converter, but do know know what they needed to be converted from Smiley

If you guys have anything to add it would be cool.

Also got a bucket load of buttons and 4 joysticks.

Hi guys,

Short intro, I am in the "mid" 30's and its about time I have an arcade of some sort. I played the crap out of them as a kid as most of you did I guess.
I work as an IT consultant and been work with IT forever from Amstrads and ZX81 (Lamda) and so on.
 
My favourites includes Wonderboy in monsterland, Bubble Bobble, Gauntlet, WWF (the 4 player thing) and a pacman.

Watched some of john videos and been very jealous Smiley

But even a cheap worn down case seems to cost around 500$+ Tongue

A short intro Smiley

Best Regards
UW
