Neo Geo MVS extra buttons.

(1/3) > >>

Vandammes:
I have searched the internet and this forum and have not found my answer.

I have recently bought a Neo Geo MVS 4 slot (Euro specs. still original with manual) it was build by rit legno by order of Neo Geo.

Is it possible to add 2 extra buttons to this machine so you have 6 buttons in total?

I have some custom cartridges with capcom fighting games who utilize 6 buttons.

Thanks for the replys


BobA:
Sure, just add them in line with the bottom button.  The addition of 2 buttons will be a little off of the standard 6 button layout biut if you space them them like the buttons above it will look like they were originaly there.

Vandammes:
Hey bob,

Where do I connect the 5th and 6th button?
Because a neo geo mvs doesnt have any knowledge of 2 extra buttons because there fighting games are only made for 4 buttons.
But now I have neo geo mvs cartridges with capcom games?
So again is it possible to add 2 extra buttons? Remember this is not a MAME cabinet.

Thanks

Is there any documentation for those custom carts ? That would be where the answer is to be found, unless somebody here has one of those same carts.

I'm curious about this.  Is there some sort of kick harness addition that would be used in line with those custom carts?  Does it use some method of "button combinations" to create a virtual 5th and 6th button? It may even be possible it just ignores two buttons altogether. 

I tried a quick and dirty Google search but came up with nothing.  Hopefully someone else has more info.
