Neo-Geo 4-Slotter
Malenko:
I dont have a reader, but I might have a memory card
FrizzleFried:
It appears I am in need of both as the reader I had on the line... well... it didn't happen.
FrizzleFried:
Whelp,
I picked up a memory card reader PCB and card... I also reproed (ie I mean MASSIVE...
Here is how she looks at present time. I am just about done with her. I'd love to find a new marquee plexi (mine has a crack) and I could surely stand to replace the CPO...but only if I can source a nice NOS plexi one... but that's about it.
Spyridon:
I have no familiarity with Neo Geo's so excuse the basic questions.
I'm assuming the card reader is strictly for saving high scores? Does it also do a save game so you can continue at another time, or even on another machine?
Once a game was selected, did the original marquee switch to light up just the game being played or did all four stay lit? (I would think all four would stay)

It actually does NOT save high scores... it saves game position so you can come back and start on level 2... 3... 4... etc.
Originally the machines had EL sheets behind each mini marquee. Only the game that was being played would light up. They were pretty unreliable and burned up pretty quick...and they're expensive to replace so many people removed them and stuck a florescent behind... that is how my cab is setup.
