Naomi Projects - Update : PCB Holder
Gatsu:
oh I hate you so hard. ;)
those are just damn sexy...and look like they dont take up as much room as other candys....might have to get one of those instead of a egret or astro. though it does look easy enough to build. hmmmmmm 8)
Franco B:
Cheers guys :)
I am soooo happy with them. This is actually the first time I have had ANY kind of setup in about four years. I haven't even had a mame setup in that time, I think the last time I had an install was about .103
I'm really looking forward to playing some propper games again and hopefully join in on the high score competitions you guys have. I'll lose miserably but it will be fun trying :)
Oh, I forgot to mention, I think I may get a multi-sync chassis for one of the tubes for some 15khz goodness.
King Nerd, I would love a Vewlix too. There were a couple for sale at the time when I was sorting these out but I was stretching myself as it was, let alone something four times the price :)
Gatsu buddy, there pretty mutch the same width as the Egret 2 and Astra City (infact the Naomi's look to be 10mm wider according to hard candy)
They do come apart very easily and can be compacted for transport. The lad who I bought the 2nd one of has transported one in his VW Golf before.
Malenko:
$?
I broke my piggy bank getting a Namco Cyberlead for $550USD (with Naomi MOBO)

Congrats on the cabs Franco... haha, and you said I was extravagant with my cabinets! ;)
V nice set up! Mame-ing one of these is extremely easy - I kept all the original wiring/mobo in mine as I love playing the originals (a bit of Virtua Tennis and Striker ;D) but as it's 31khz natively, you can just swap the VGA lead over when you want to play a bit of MAME/Naomi - so I quite often do! You just need a JVS-Pac - about £40 shipped from a nice chap in Norway and they work superbly!
I've managed to buggar my Naomi up somehow... nothing a bit of research (and probably cost :-[) won't sort out but it's frustrating as I'm not willing to play it until I fix it...
I'm sure you're going to have a lot of fun with these! ;D
