I was contacted recently about the PAL found on a Willow B board. I did not have this but it was in MAME.
I converted it back to JED for the guy and he tested it so I have added it to the list.

Thanks to Silvio for testing

The people that brought us the CPS3 super BIOS/SH2 mod are currently working on converting Atomiswave games to run on a NAOMI.
This morning I thought id give the Demolishfist game a try and netbooted it up.

Ive never played this game before and probably never would have if not for this work and I am very impressed.
I got to level 2 and couldn’t see anything wrong with gameplay or graphics. There may be some issues but I lack any knowledge on the game so I really don’t know.

I’m looking forward to seeing more of this project and hopefully Hokuto No Ken will be soon. It was the only reason I bought an Atomiswave (sadly needed to be sold on) and really miss the game.

A little while back muddymusic lent me his PCE-JAMMA unit to look at.
The whole saga can be found here.

There is pretty much no documentation available out there for this unit but my friend Tormod seems to have quite a bit. Here is a scan of the manual he has for it

After tracing the hardware out and various trials and a fair amount of input from the arcade community we came up with this:

Its not a bad system really and it works well for what it is

New NAC control panel

Since Ive recently decided to spruce up my NAC a bit I thought it was time to get hold of a new control panel for it.
I ordered this one from Akihabarashop.jp
Ive got to say the communications from this place are nil but the item landed after about 3 weeks so I guess I cant complain too much as it is brand new.
