I'm in the market for a jtag'd xbox360. I just need the system itself. No cables, HDD, controllers. Let me know if you can hook me up with one. I'm not going to spend $250 though. If you have one for a reasonable price I will take it off your hands ASAP.
-
Maybe contact SNAAAAAAAKE
-
he did contact me but I dont have one lol..
I will check out random mom n pop store around here to see if anyone still has any old xboxes(preferably sealed)
-
Thanks Snaake. I always thought that there was no way to mod a 360 to play imports. Now that i know you can do that AND install MAME, I can't stop thinking about the possibilities. Expecially since I'm working on my JAMMA/360 cab right now.
And btw, a sealed one would be nice, but I would end up decasing it anyway for the cab. But I'll take whatever I can get.
-
MAME is awful on the 360, its a very early port with a poor front end and very limited compatibility, I don't think it has even been updated
Final Burn on the other hand is excellent, under current development, great front end, excellent game selection and very fast too

newest finalburn for xbox360 is AMAZING. only reason why I even considered jtagging my console and learning how all this works. runs like all games(if not all??) 100% 60fps.
-
what is final burn? I know I could google it but maybe you could just give a quick run down.
All I care about for this setup is to play vertical shmups (I can switch the monitor, but it's a pain in the ass, so I plan on leaving it Tated 90% of the time). CAVE, Psykio, Gemini Wings etc...
-
Final Burn plays Capcom games I think

Plays all of those!
Its a massive project with hundreds (thousands if you include the console games) of games
-
So it's just another arcade emulator (plus consoles)? like there are multiple emulators for NES, SNES etc...
-
FB Alpha (formerly Final Burn Alpha), based on the original Final Burn source code, is a multi-arcade emulator. These are the currently emulated systems:
- Capcom CPS-1
- Capcom CPS-2
- Capcom CPS-3
- Cave
- Neo Geo
- Sega System 16 (and similar), System 18, X-Board, Y-Board
- Toaplan
- Taito
- Psikyo 68EC020 based hardware
- misc stuff the authors like
Final Burn Alpha 360 is a native port on the Xbox 360 Platform.

Sounds AWESOME! now I gotta get me a console. aggghhh. I'm too obsessive about this stupid cab. I'm all worried that I won't be able to find one since they have to be relatively old and not have been updated... Time to wait...
-
Its a pretty amazing system, especially when you consider the recent cave ports like
DoDonPachi Dai Ou Jou Black Label
Ketsui - Kizuna Jigoku Tachi
Espgaluda II
Mushihime-sama Futari
DeathSmiles
DeathSmiles II
AFAIK most of those are exclusive to the 360
If you want a console for Shmups, the 360 is the best choice.
Jtag'd all controllable from a pad/stick no disc swapping to worry about, its pretty awesome!
-
You have good taste sir, the Cave ports kick some serious ass :)
I paid a pretty price for my JTAG but its so worth it.
-
Yeah I KNOW! I WILL get one. It's just a matter of not wanting to pay out my a** for it. especially with all the other money I've been spending on toys....
I already have Mushi Futari (burned) and Deathsmiles (US special edition). I may import ESP Galuda II ( I downloaded it but it won't play on my modded xbox... It's supposed to work with a boot disc, but I couldn't get it to work...)
I wish CAVE weren't such ---daisies--- and would stop region locking their games (luckily Mushi and ESP Galuda are region free, although not released in US. Somehow DS actually got a US release...). It really pisses me off. I love this company's games, but it seems like they go out of their way to keep ppl outside of Japan from playing them.
-
Buy the PCBs then. You can play them in any country you like ;)
-
I can easily get you a brand new falcon jtag for like 250 though. basically it was played like 5-6 times for testing purpose(one of my own..I have 2 lol). this is the one I have inside my vewlix cabinet. in elite black case and benq drive(not like you'd be using the drive much anyway) and HDMI.
and when I say new I mean it. I broke the seal myself.
-
PM sir :cheers:
-
thanks Snaake. I need to think about that for a day or two. $250 is more than I was hoping to spend. Is that how much you would normally charge? or is it because it's brand new? I don't need any cables/controllers too (I may have already said this. I don't remember).
-
normally its less but this is brand new and my own. its very hard to find new jtagged systems.
IF I were to let it go.
-
If anyone here is still looking for a Jtag-able (NOt already jtag-ed), I just fixed an old Xenon console that is exploitable. It has dash 7371 but was manufactured in 2005 so the CB should not be patched.
PM if interested!
-
Another good reason to get a Jtag, coming next month ;)
Don Don Don!

thanks to anyone who was offering a system, but SNAAKE is taking care of me on this one.
@jimmy2x2x
I know, I am so happy that I'm going to get to play this game, and all the other CAVE releases!
