Well Folks Here they are!, I finnaly decided to sell them off to whoever offers... Im not too sure on price, but only know it cost me just about 100$ dollars to get these things Suicide free alone (total 3 together)... and purchased off ebay for 90$ or more 2yrs ago...
(NEW) NOTE: Both of these come with their own A-Boards so you dont have to worry about bending the pins when replacing them with others.... ^.<
OFFER: Please dont hate me if i refuse your offer... I went through alot of trouble to get these boards into the shape they are in... >.<
HISTORY:I bought them 2yrs ago off ebay (old Account) ... I searched online and met a Dear Freind now RAZOOLA... Raz gave me an offer to Make the boards in/phoenix img. and reprogram the EEPROMs, I accepted and removed each one on my own and Sent them to him in Europe... when finished he sent them back... the process for all 3 of my CPS2 games together totalled to about 3-4 months...Got them Back installed, Cut batterys from all 3 sets and whoo lah!!!!
PHOENIX ED's!
REASON: as most of you know I am looking into getting a SuperPuzzle Fighter II TURBO and a Alien Vs Predator B-Board... well I found a guy who is willing to part with one for 150$ including shipping non-suicide... and I am disapointed to miss out on the 100$ one.. but oh well heres my offer...
MORE INFORMATION: Just to remind you I want to part with this for as much as i can.... Some of you know im only 16 and you have no idea how long/ or much time It took to acuire these and their manuals.... etc.... ALSO A freind of mine has the marquees for both these games and more!... hence why i am collecting marquees... Sorry but I couldnt get them yet...
If you have any questions or to Request a Picture please Feel Free to at anytime!...
Also the manual's for Xmen Vs Street Fighter(have), and Marvel Vs Streetfighter (if i can find it)
Otra ^.<
Even more Extended Information (NEW) The Phoenix logo that apears at the start of each game startup is not just for looks, in fact these sets of rewritten roms also include Region Change! JukeBox, and more! and can be accessed by holding test and start at the begining of startup... ^.<
-
I forgot to add!!! if you have a Super Puzzle Fighter II TURBO Board, I will Automaticly trade you anyone of these as if they were just another regular CPS2 game... ^.<
-
Any offers? ;D
-
This A and B boards?
-
This A and B boards?
What is an a and b board? I have a jamma cabinet. If I buy this can I plug in and go or is this just a piece of the puzzle?
-
CPS2 games came in two pieces. The A board was the base motherboard. With it you could play any of the CPs2 boards. The B board was the actual game board. Hence the price varies greatly on whether its both boards or just the B boards.
-
yes, This is for both A and B boards and for Jamma, they support 3 buttons per player and you can get an extra Button Harness for the other three if they need it... you can play any CPS2 games on these boards as well...
these games do need button harness which i do not have an extra of atm...
___A/B board Guide___
A=Mother board (Device that plays the games) (Common*)
B=Is a Seperate Motherboard (that is the game) (Uncommon*/Rare*)

Well Otraotaku ive expressed interest in the XMEN VS SF B Board before, I was wanting to trade you for my Street Fighter Alpha B board and cash but I never heard from you.
Im still willing to do that, you interested? Ive got the Large Uncut Marquee for it to.
Im really needing this for my Capcom Project man, please consider it.
-
well, i dont really have any use for a Street Fighter Alpha board... >.< that would just put me back further than planned... and I already have atleast 2 offers on that particular board too... whichboard is interested and so is Russ347... and then you... but nothing to get me jumping yet... no specificaly set cash offers as of yet either...
but if that board was a... lets say Alien Vs Predator or Super Puzzle Fighter II, I would be more interested in your offer... ^.^
as of now i only need cash to get what im looking for...
(as far as i know of, no one has it on these Forums because ive been advertizing my need for one for quite some time)
these boards are probaly the most expensive things sitting in my room, other than my computer + Bed... ^.<

I forgot to mention, I was banned from the forums for quite some time due to a friend who decided to post stupid things under my name at my votech... >.<
So im just now getting back from that... >.<
-
I thought they were just the "B" boards so if Russ is interested then consider me out. The "A" boards are going to put them out of my range, plus the fact that they are "immortal" puts another $40 each on the pricetag. I have other financial obligations at the moment. I'll keep an eye on them though in case you can't move them for a while. :angel:
-
okay then, ill keep that in mind... ^.<
-
im gonna resort to ebay soon i guess... the way this is picking up...
Ill give you guys another week or weekend .... If a few more interested people post ill keep it on the boards...
Ive seen 3 normal B-boards go of on ebay for 250$-300$ on one auction and maybe i could consider trying my luck...
If anyone else is still interested I will also be getting the large as well as the Small mylar/Marquee for Xmen Vs Street Fighter soon (hopefully), so you could have your pick... ^.<

In recent events, (trying to figure out the worth of these boards) a XmVsSf Suicide Free board went off on ebay for 161 US, or you could say 87 GBP, with 17GBP shipping, totalling about 191.00 US and 97 GBP, well the buyer was from UK so he got lucky on shipping...
(B-Board Only)
seeing how these boards are usualy seen on ebay in groups of 10 or in a maximum of 6 days time.
a Suicide free board is real a gem to be found on ebay...
errr... forgot link... lol

Ok.. color me noobie, but wtf does Suicide Free mean.. :-\

Ok.. color me noobie, but wtf does Suicide Free mean.. :-\
The batteries on a lot of boards would go bad/leak/break, thus killing the board in most instances. Suicide free boards take the battery out so that's not a problem anymore (or can you replace the battery as well??)
Either way though, it's to make sure your board doesn't just go belly up one day.

More Info:
well, the truth is if you keep using the board as soon as the battery dies your board will Die as well... thus why it is named suicide... (for those who dont know) This process is the only known one to keep thhe boards alive forever (besides the hassle of replacing the battery every 2-5 years and worrying about it dying)
So When your battery dies, so does your board... >.<
Capcom did this intentionally to keep the numbers low and have theeir games die out in a few years, soon every CPS2 game as we know without the propper modifications will be a thing of the past... or a great looking door stop, which ever... ^.<

Any tips so i can keep my boards alive. CPS2 Xmen vs SF, CPS2 DD

Replace the batteries in them now (requires minor soldering skills), and just keep track to replace them again in 3 years (up to 5 years if you use the full size AA lithum version). I just scored some of these batteries with axial leads at a local electronics store. I'm safe for long while.
Its not worth getting your board modded with the new eeproms unless they have already died. Otherwise you risk even more with your boards getting lost/damaged in the mail (plus the amount of time it takes to have it done).
-
Sounds like from what you said about the eproms a dead board can be brought back to live?
Ill have to take a look inside these B's and see what im dealing with here, thanks for the info.

Then again dave, CPS2 games have more than one way to become dead or defective other than the battery,(some beyound repair) and it is reasuring to know that nothing can happen to harm it circuitry, (lets hope not physically, lol)
but even if you forget in a year or your time is running low... it dies... and razoola isnt offering his services no longer... youll be thankful that you have no worries... ^.<
-
I forgot to mention, That keeping these boards in storage and not at full/part time use can also shorten battery life by generous amount,
that is the main purpose, and why the boards have a battery, so that the battery keeps them alive when not powered on... (or in storage)
that is why its given a lesser range, especially with games Well over the 90's period... which also explains why some of the earlier CPS2 and later CPS1 games are harder to find working.
-
okay, weekend is over and i have decided to list these on ebay, May 19-20th, if no one else is interested...
-

I know this may not be a suicide free board but its Funny!!!...
this guy on ebay claims that the list price for a X-Men Vs Street Figther is
-
He probably lost the security torx screws that held it together. Shipping seems a little padded to me, especially since you can't pick it up. I guess the important thing is that it works... oh wait, he doesn't say that it does. :-\

I think orange county games is actually reputable, but you gotta love the tape.
