Title: D9200 and mame cabinet
Post by: ntjedi on August 03, 2003, 09:08:24 pm
I am thinking of breaking down and getting the D9200.  I just wanted to verify and make sure that this will be the solve all to my isses.  I have a slikstik controller, ArcadeVGA and J-Pac running in a cabinet.  I want to be able to run all the games in the correct resolutions.  Right now what I have running is an old SEGA 25" and I cannot get it to sync to certain resolutions.  

What is everyones opinion on the D9200?

I love playing with what I have now I usually just end up tweaking the vhold but I want to get it to be a stable system so someone can play if I am not around.

Well you'll be hard pressed to find someone who is running a D9200 say he hates it :).

Just read through the posts in this forum for the last few months- there's been a ton of questions lately about how the D9200 works with this or that...general consensus is that it's great - but nothing is perfect.  You'll always find something is a compromise.  I've yet to have any serious problems with it.  It's easy to setup and get going, looks great, but YMMV.

Aw crap.  I just measured my box and I can only fix a 25" monitor in it.   Oh well I guess I will just have to tinker with the one I have.

I thought that might be a problem, but didn't want to sound negative  :P  That sucks.  You know the d9200 is not actually 27" wide, right?  Check out the stats at the site (wellsgardner.com) and who knows you may get lucky...

The 9200 is something like 24" wide and my cabinet is only 23"!

heh sounds like a you have a little challenge in front of you ;)

Good luck, I'd just build a new one if you really want a d9200 ( as opposed to chopping the top off your classic sega...)
