This is starting to sound quite interesting. What's the estimated price per unit? |

Sorry for the delay in replying, I've been busy building 20 Arcade machines for a client :) I've been doing a little more digging into the OS side of things, looks like its not quite Linux - its booting off of MiniOS -> app From my notes - OS seems to be MINIOS RAM - k4s561632d-tl75 = 16M X 8BITS x 2 banks (128m ram?) ROM - H27UBG8T2ATR = 4G Nand Flash (MLC) Seems like the software currently on there is a bastardized version of FBANext. Screen output is via SDL I've tested this with some FBANext specific roms that aren't CPC1 or NEOGEO, and they work, so that seems to be a good guess :) I've also found an X-Scale (MIPS) version of FBANext which compiles. Next up, I'm going to dump the current firmware, and then try flash my own. Pricing will be reasonable, but will need to charge for all the work I'm doing on top of the board price. The boards are really really really stable though - I've been running them solid for a while now (eg weeks on at a time in my own machines), and no issues with crashing. The audio output could probably do with a heatsink on there, but other than that, its ok. Will update my website with another post soon. I've been doing quite a bit today on the software side. Pricing will probably be in the $100-150 range |

Will this be completely JAMMA compatible (no external dedicated PSU)? 3. Can the gamelist be edited somehow, preferably by drag and drop in Windows onto memory card or will it be a fixed one? 4. If 6 button Fighting games are included, will this have a kick harness or non-standard JAMMA with buttons 5-6 on the JAMMA edge connector? 5. Are games known to be "problematic" running perfectly on this, (CPS2 shmups like Progear) 6. Will the menu support a vertical as well as horizontal menu? Thanks! :cheers: |
