Title: Neo Geo MVS: Multicart vs MAME
Post by: keilmillerjr on June 25, 2015, 10:36:17 am
I picked up a new geo mvs-2-25 last weekend. Purchased a 161-in-1 multicart. It works flawlessly. However, the interface sucks and there is a crap load of hacks. But it works. Easily. Flawlessly.

Mame I can make an attractmode theme and have it user friendly. However, there are more costs associated with it and its not as easy to set up. No coin LEDs either.

What's your thoughts on original hardware vs mame for the neo geo?

See how much you're still playing it in a month, and go from there.  :cheers:

Actually the outputs are hooked up for the coin leds in mame... write yourself some scripts, hook the leds up to a usb device and you are good to go.

The more I think about it, unless that multi-cart is missing something you really want to play, I'd leave it as it.  :cheers:

That is what I will likely do. There is a bunch of cool things I can tinker with as is, and selling my mame items will help fund it.
