/vr/ - Retro Games

I've owned one for about a year now. About 9/10 games I've thrown at it work well as they should. No FMV skipping or audio issues. The only games that didn't work for me were Chrono Cross and a couple of libcrypt games but I think there is a workaround to getting them working. Part of me thinks that all the negativity surrounding this thing stems from the insecurity of its detractors. Yes, we know that you can break out a solding iron and install a 8 wire modchip like that's anything other than babbies first modding job. You don't need to remind us on how capable you are.

>DURRRR WHY YOU GOTTA INSTALL THE SWITCHBOARD JUST PUT IN A MODCHIP AND BURN CDR'S
The switch board has the same amount of wires as the modchip. It's really not hard to install all. All the documentation is there. If you actually knew what you were talking about you'd realise that the switchboard has to be installed for a good reason. Sick of people bashing on this product and spreading lies.
TL;DR: Compatibility is fine and it's the switchboard is the same effort to install a modchip anyway.

I have a four slot MVS board that's sitting in a closet because it has corroded traces

>didn't sell it with any games
>get it home and find a fatal fury catridge in it
The guy asked me if I was gonna gut it and turn it into a mame machine, I said I didn't know what that was and he proceeded to bitch about people who do that and how they are committing a sin
