/vr/ - Retro Games

It used to be a lame fishing game

sf4 isnt retro, take it to /v/

>>619841
my mistake
its a mame cabinet
it plays much more than SF4 and most of the games meet the rules

>>619829
reel cool

also, this machine is from 1998

it took forever to clean this thing
>>619850
he hur her hurp

>>619864

Looks tasty.

PS I am kinda jelly of your arcade

If you are getting the rolls royce of candy cabinets for mame shit, you are subhuman scum.

There is a special place on hell for your kind and the BYOAC retards that defecate on dedicated wodies

>>619881
yeah, uh i took a bass FISHING game and turned it into a great mame cabinet
cry me a fucking river
candy cabs are not dedicated games being ruined
and if you want the bass fishing stuff its all right here

>>619901
get it right, you ruined SEGA bass fishing. dreamcast-era sega arcade games are all fantastic, and you ruined one for shitty emulation

RIP fishing I will never forget you

Show us a pic of it playing Fire Shark.

I want to see it.

>>619915
yeah... that game is horrible and you can play it on a dreamcast anyways
also, i ruined nothing
no wires have been cut
everything can be swapped back in minutes
i plan on grabbin a jamma kit for it as well
tri-sync monitor means i can play alot on it

>Doing that to SEGA machines
It's like... you aren't even human.

>>619901

I don't give a fuck about sega ass fishing, putting mame in candy cabinet is what should be punished by the law.

I bet you doesn't even used a jamma harness,used the vga port of the chasis for connecting a disgusting pc and even have console games in your disgusting frontend. enjoy your unaccurate sync rates and scaling, faggot.

You are basically wasting one of the best cabs out there.

Meanwhile I will keep playing the real deal

Protip: those 2 cutes are not my only cabs and they are still on resto.

>>620000
....no one even wants to play the machine as a fishing game, if you really want to play a sega fishing game, go for it

>>620017
>being an elitist
>over video games

Thats kind of sad. I feel sorry for you

>>620017
wow, i feel bad for you

I loved SEGA Bass Fishing.

Pls restore it back.

Then kill yourself.

>being mad that some guy gutted a shitty game no one plays today
>responding to that anger with elitism
/vr/ you crack me up.

>>620068
Me too.

Super Big!

>>620059
>>620065

>samefaging
>using the best arcade monitor ever made for mame

Yeah, tell me about sadness.

Props for that afterburner and initial-D, those are rad. If you are really into at least do it the rigth way and in a woddy next time.

>>620108
>samefag the shit out of this thread
>try to call someone else a a samefag

>>620108
He's already said he's going to get a jamma kit for it, so clearly he shows interest in your cause.

Still waiting on Fire Shark.

>>620171

Do you even know what we are talking about?

>>620173

Yeah, at least he is trying. But mame cabs in general touch my nerves, the horrors I seen man....

>>620221
Just stopping by this thread to ask, what's so bad about MAME cabs?

>>620221
Could be worse, I eagerly sat down in a smoothie bar at a cocktail cab to find it was some "iCade" shit. I sunk in a credit to play 1943 and everything about it was just plain bad. The sound was shit (the iconic plane engine noise being reduced to the horrible white noise scream), the screen looked shit, the stick was utterly terrible and didn't even return to the centre, just tripe.

>>620250

at best: inaccurate sync and scaling rates,lag , rampart pirating and consoles in an arcade cab(most of this shit doesn't hurt anybody).

at worst: http://www.wickedretarded.com/~crapmame/

Now imagine that in an dedicated machine or candy cabinet.... And its more common than you think....

>>620250
Not elitist enough

yeah please look at my arcade
i have 4 active mame cabinets
2 are in generic dynamos
1 is a generic sega blast city (herp derp we all love fishing now)
and one is a 37" mounted in a keyboard mania cabinet that i got EMPTY for $10
I am also working on a gun game cabinet that will run a 27" VGA monitor
cry me a river

Mad jelly.

I want to try and trade my New Astro City for a Blast City at some point.

Check out Arcade Otaku if you're not already on there

>>620704

If you have 4 mame cabinets already ,why one more?

most of us seeks cabs for displaying games and not changing them every time we want to play but with the absurd quantity that a mame pc can hold and the practicity of changing a game with just 1 button this problem became meaningless.

I really don't get your point dude, unless you are operating this doesn't have sense at all.

Also most of gun games are 3d hardware based and the emulation of those suck dick. I tested zn1 emulators and compared to the real hardware and the results where lackluster, same with model 2, model 3 and naomi.

Why all the effort of making them for shitty results?do having ton of games that rarely you play satisfies you?

>>621202
Maybe he has twist controllers on one or who knows? Maybe one is a it down cab with a steering wheel.

In my opinion, there's nothing automatically wrong with mame cabinets as long as they don't get fucked with too much.

Candy cabs are pretty generic to start with anyway. As long as he's putting out 15KHz RGB and using arcade controls and accurate sound through the cabinet's amps it's fine.

Nigger better damn well be able to Naomi though, since he pulled one out.

Speaking of which, OP, can I have your Naomi?

nice conversion OP

>>619849
I am trying to get a MAME emulator to work on my PSP so I can play SFIII3. No luck so far.
But nice stuff man, I used to live down the street from this arcade that was near my high school and they had like a billion of what you've got. A more realistic number would be about 7 or 8. All kindsa weeaboo fighting games and plenty of SF to go around. I wish they would put in metal slug 3 god damn it ;_;

>>619901
Give me that fucking IDv3 you ass.

>>621464
Candy Cabs in Japan now have MakVision flatscreen monitors in them, they're terrible. Emulation would be better.

What kind of MONITOR. If people are pissing and moaning about your "emulation" not being good enough for a cab, shut them down and tell us about your triple mode JAMMA RGB true resolution and frequency every pixel in its place no lag skills.

>>619901
So do you run an arcade or are you a collector?

>>620298
Since only computer hardware from the 80's is capable of exporting the right signal to modern cathode ray tubes? So every candy cab with a real arcade game in it is fake too.

>>621771
>only computer hardware from the 80's is capable of exporting the right signal to modern cathode ray tubes
False.

I don't know why anyone would complain about ruining a Sega Bass Fishing cab.
If anything, they're ruined Blast City cabs.
You should see the brackets Sega put on these things. Very shoddy looking.
Not to mention that wooden pedestal added.
The worst thing though, is that this game doesn't have any screen burn protection. The insert coin message never flickers and never changes position.


Besides, who the hell wants a dedicated Bass Fishing cab?
It's not like Sega made a deluxe cabinet or anything...

>>621879
The people complaining are just neckbeards like http://www.candycab.com who buy old arcades out of games just for the hardware, then refurb it and sell it themselves as MAME cabinets. They're just mad that a private hobbyist took one out of the hands of the capitalist neckbeards.

>>621973

Dude, know about you are talking about?

No one who knows his shit in this hobby would buy a candy refurbished as mame machine unless it was for a restoration project.

>>621973


Dude, do you know about you are talking about?

The shit in that side are Ok-babys, clone candies.

Everyone avoids that korean turd like the plague.

No one who knows his shit in this hobby would buy a candy refurbished as mame machine unless it was for a restoration project.

>>620108
>>620017
it's pretty much THE cabinet recomended for mame around here, I hope that rustles your jimmies so hard that you get a heart attack

>>622203

I assume that is for the tri-sync chasis, but that is like giving 87 gas to a ferrari.I am quite surprised of the stupidity of the place you live ,as for low res you got better options performance and price wise.

But I know people who will be very very rustled, please reference that shit so I can get some laughs.

>>622236
>But I know people who will be very very rustled
well go and hang out with them and stop posting your elitist bullshit here

>>622236
by around here I mean on this board by the why

>>622259

Have any thread on the archive?

Thats fucked up, as soon I am getting some free time I am making some infograft on how to convert a arcade machine to mame without messing with the internals. Also how to pick an arcade machine that fills your necessities.

Recommending a blast city for first cab and for a mame machine is wasting money and potential.

Hey dude. I like your arcade. How's the CRX coming?

Why are they called candy cabinets anyway?

>>622285
because they were often in japanese candy stores

>>622275
oh... you were just upset about that particular model? I thought you were upset about people using candy cabs as mame consoles at all

>>622302

I am not fond of mame in any cabinet, but mame in a blast is almost heresy As I am a candy cab/arcade collector/restorator/preserver, hell I even helped to upload shit on mame so games will not be lost. .

But alas, most of people do that when they buy arcade machines and if they are going to do it ,I will try to help them not to fuck their machines more than they already do.

>>619857
So... What kind of harness are you using for kicks into usb and what kind of video card are you using to sync low frequency?

>>620000
That's what I've been TRYING to tell you!

So I come back to this thread and find people are genuinely upset with using a candy cab for MAME? What the fuck am I even reading here? An excellent cabinet with an excellent monitor is bad for MAME? Is this bizarro /vr/ or are you just stupid?

Is using MAME for arcade hardware different than using MAME on PC?

>>623590
Only barely. You'd want some hardware like ArcadeVGA and some adapters, but other than that, there's no real difference.

>>623327
They're not saying the cabinet is bad for mame, they're saying mame is bad for the cabinet

>>623634
afaic ArcadeVGA puts put exclusively 15KHz signals, which is the standard for old school arcade games but a Blast City cabinet has a tri-syncing monitor in it for modern PCBs,

This is, I believe, the heart of the mame hate for this cabinet because (again afaic) mame and arcadevga are not capable of changing sync rates by game.

Plus I heard some bitching about mame's sound reproduction as well.

>>619829
>Sega Bass Fishing
>Lame
hey fuck you man! I bought one of those awesome fishing controllers with my dreamcast just to get the maximum enjoyment.

>>623327
they are having autism flare up's because they dont like someone is using a fishing game cabinet for mame and so they are having a unified autism sperg out and are trying to be a dick to OP cuz he is doing what he wants in life and they cant cuz muh autism.

just feel sorry for these people since it's obivious if they autism flare up over something like this then god knows what happens when it's actually something that matters in life

>>624684
Its still the game I play most on my dreamcast. Japanese version "Get Bass!"

>>624648
Puts out 15.7 khz for arcade, can also do 25 khz for other arcade games. Can also into normal monitor resolutions.

But I think GooeyMame or whatever it's called can do the same thing with any Radeon graphics card.

Can tri-mode monitors also display weird frequencies like 60.5 Hz? Wonder Boy be tearing up my screen.

>>622335
how about a self built cabinet?
or a mame console made out a totally unrepairable game..
you people can't be against that too... can you?
wait, of course you are because that is how your type works

>>625341
Like I already said and was flipped out at, these are the same people who clog up NES / SNES threads complaining about the triple digit price tags of awful games like Pocky & Rocky not because they want to play them, but because they didn't take enough copies off the market themselves in advance of their price increase in order to maximize their resale profits.

Same as their great proprietary feeling about arcade equipment, boards, and cabs. If someone else has used or purchased these limited-in-number items, that is one less opportunity for them to take something out of circulation THEMSELVES.

OK confirmed, ArcadeVGA doesn't output any vertical frequencies at 60.5 Hz. They're right, you can't emulate without destroying the entire experience. Enjoy your lag on the most unforgiving platformer ever.

Also, are there any electromechanical devices for automatically rotating the screen in your cabinet? How do people act like they can emulate every game flawlessly without true screen rotation?

To clarify
I have several mame machines for different purposes
vert 2 player 3 button (great for shumps and what not)
vert trigger stick trackball and spinner (this was mostly tron until i found a nice tron but we play golf and arkanoid)
37" 4 player podium
this is for party gaming simpsons/tmnt/gauntlet
and DDR (if i ever play that again lol)
the blast city is clearly for 2 player fighting/beat em ups and more

yes, i am aware emulation isn't perfect
i am also running taito type x and other such things on the machine
it displays in 640x480 VGA mode from the pc currently but i was working on a way to allow output switching
the cabinet is not hacked or chopped in any way
i can put bass fishing back in the machine without any issues
the keyboard encoder is wired to AMP connectors i purchased separately so i wouldn't have to cut wires
The gun con cabinet won't be just for mame, it will be for all shooting games, pc, nes, snes ETC
Does this cover everything?
>>621464
bass fishing isn't naomi hardware
>>625474
this is why i have 2 vert MAME machines
>>624726
i feel bad for people getting buttmad in this thread

>>625656
So every pixel is sent via subatomic particle through a vacuum where it is deposited on the screen in the exact place you want it, with no lag, using the exact video memory that would be output at the same time to the CRT yet people still insist that original hardware is always superior?

MAME sound no perfectly accurate: until it is. Were people really complaining for over a decade about non-100% accurate sound emulation in Battletoads for arcade? Does anyone care now that they dumped and supported the actual pinball machine audio chip? Or did more people complain that their Battletoads no longer worked when they upgraded.

>>625681
>>625691
do you think friends who come over to play care THAT MUCH?
seriously guys
its video games
YES original cabs are better, but i couldn't possibly fit 400 of them in my house

>>625723
>friends come over to play
>"Every arcade game ever?"
>disinterest
>"do you have Ghost Recon?"

>>625723
Just install every chip that MAME emulates with your own custom built Linux-based operating system.

>>625723

You already have like 30, maybe that's enough.

>>621708
dont use the mame emulator. Get the cps2 and neo geo emulators.

>>625723

At least mine do ,fighting games feel a lot different when emulated.

For example, type X emulation have input lag, or zn1 emulation have frame problems.

Also getting the right pcb is important, some fuck up input time or do not support multiple key pressing.

And sound emulation most of the times is shitty as fuck, try comparing emulated stereo sound from a cps3 and the pcb.

Shumps/shooters are another bitch to get right, groovy mame or shump mame does not solve all your problems.

Mame machines are only ok if you don't know any better or you are poor, witch is contradictory as arcade machines are somewhat expensive and most of the games are around a modern console game price (if you avoid ebay, of course).

>>625723

With the sheer amount of cabinets you have you can have a healty variety of pcbs for every taste.

From what experience I can tell that people are more willing to try new games if they are the only game in the cabinet, usually the attract mode does his magic.

But if you have TEH MAREOHS in they would not even try, they will change immediately.

Its funnt as hell when they play the ports of snes games when the arcade versions are available in the same machine.

>>625906
>type X emulation
lol

>>625970

Yeah, yeah . its more a hack than emulation but you get the point.
>>625656

What the hell you are doing
, keyboards are lag like a bitch.

Get some of these:

What the fuck are you smoking?
also i plan on loading a bunch of pc fighters (and buy a bunch i mean the 4 or 5 that exist)

>>626198
Face it dude, he's so much better than you. He straight up called you an ignorant, impoverished individual. He's above emulation...he writes Taito Type X emulators in his spare time but doesn't publish them.

>>626198
>dedicated MUGEN box

>>625906
Type X runs on Windows you dipshit.
The reason the Arcade rips feel like shit is because the guy who wrote the Taito X loader has on concept of how inputs work.

>>625970

Yeah, yeah . its more a hack than emulation but you get the point.

Hoarding and been jelly of a blast? You are talking shit and you don't know anything about the arcade scene. Prices tend to be fair, aside some titles and most of the SHUMPS titles of some famous studios.

There are few hoarders and those are pretty much known in the community, most of us hate them as they have inflated many titles sniping them from Japanese auction sites.

Then after they snipe you , they put it at their store at triple price, sometimes even more.

This is a serious problems as japanise stores react to this rising the prices up , which at the same time rises the prices in the auction making some titles reach absurd prices.


>>625970
>how about a self built cabinet?

If is selfbuilt ,I dont give a fuck .Its your creation , put didoes on it if it pleases you.

>a mame console made out a totally unrepairable game..

While you have the body cabinet itself in good shape is reparable as you can get parts for most of games, there are few systems that cant be repaired as the bubble system but you can get mask roms ports of most of their games.

I am specialize on candy cabinets as I don't like woodies as much, but in order to restore a machine you got look if it worth the effort.

For example, its more worthwhile restoring a pac man machine rather than a dinamo with a bootleg sf2.While one have historic and monetary value the other is common and shit and its not even dedicated.

By the way ,dynamo cabinets are good mame project boxes , those are common, spacious , not dedicated and usually cheap.

As you said some machines cant be saved but that implies that the body of the cabinet is trash(heavy water damage, etc etc), so why the effort of restoring it?

>>626276
I know that if I ever meet anyone who self-identifies as part of the "arcade scene" I will sucker punch them, wildly attack, and go for the eyes. Talk that shit to me afterward, as far as I'm concerned everyone who's part of the "arcade scene" just did.

>>626276
Definitely going to install a dildo facing upward on the seat in case any members of the Arcade Scene want to try out the cabinet.

>>626276
God please never post again.

I just heard some MAME enthusiasts were getting uppity and threatening the validity of my hobby, what's going on here?

>>626276
o_0
you really think one of the most overproduced game EVER pacmac is worth 2 shits don't you
man, you have issues

>>626276
you need help

>>626586
What happened, you looked up the price of Pac-Man?

>>626994
what $300?
ohhhh nooooesssss
(but no i typo'd quite a few things)

On my porch, I've got a Vs. Unisystem with gun that has Hogan's Alley in it right now, A SFII:The World Warrior that I might consider upgrading to a CPS2 in the future, a 3 Player The Combatribes, a NinjaWarriors with unique three-monitor cabinet that I'll never modify and a Bally Sente cabinet with Magic Sword decals, panel, and bezel but WWF Wrestlefest marquee and PCB. I'm planning to convert it to Mame although I do plan to have it dedicate boot to only 15Khz horizontal games that I own marquees for so it shouldn't seem like a Mame cabinet other than the long boot. I'm planning to keep costs rock bottom by using a PC2MAME adapter and arcadeos and yes, sometimes when no one's looking I may play some NES games on it.

I like candy cabinets and if I had an opportunity to get a nice one under $200 I might go for it but if I don't I might just build myself a Supergun out of a real junked control panel, an MK4 or MK5 and a Sony PVM or maybe even a CRT projector.

Come at me.

>>627076
Oh yeah I forgot to mention I'd like to trade The Combatribes. Anyone want to give me a candy cab or an mvs for it?
