Reaperman Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) It's ALIVE! After an amateur flyback swap, the old Hantarex monitor chassis lives! I honestly gave it about 30% odds when I flipped it on... I'm still working on tuning the RGB gains/cutoffs for maximum performance, but it's already looking better than before here's a peek: (embiggen) (embiggen) I can't do a pic of straight on, because my living room is still in (this) configuration. Anyway while it was out, I found out more about my cab. I'd always assumed it was ROMSTAR-built, since I got it from San Diego (near ROMSTAR), and many examples of this cabinet design are of ROMSTAR distributed games, but that's not the whole truth. It was actually made by East Coast Design, out of NJ, and is a UV-25 SN: 10579, assembled in 1989. I picked it up during my time stationed at Pt. Mugu (a Naval air station just west of Malibu). During the lengthy drive back home with it, in a borrowed liftgate truck, I was stuck in traffic next to a yellow Lamborghini, but I'm pretty sure my truck was getting at least as many eyeballs. Anyway, probably mostly for my future reference, here's my serial plate, and an East Coast Designs sales brochure, featuring (of course) a ROMSTAR game: (embiggen) (embiggen) (embiggen) Edited January 22, 2023 by Reaperman 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds great Slidell. I'm always impressed on your works and how you share it in the community for all to enjoy. One of these days we need to see you develop a Neo-Geo title with @ColecoGamer. Maybe other AtariAge members would like to participate as well. Could be a great possibility for all to work together and might attract @Albert to publish it and sell the game on the AtariAge shop.

Because I didn't think it'd actually work, I didn't document any of the process. 🤣 Besides, there are actually good youtube videos on the subject, done by people who know what they are doing--mine would just some guy flailing at it accompanied by 'yakety sax.' (assuming that's what I'd replace the cursing with) That reminds me I still have to tell Pa about the successful surgery. Back before I was born, he was a TV repairman, so he was pretty interested in me doing this. He said I'd get it just fine, but I didn't fully believe him. The board could use a re-cap too--some adjustment pots are all the way at their ends, but doing that all at once would have been asking for trouble, and it looks better than most arcade monitors, so I'll defer that maintenance for another decade. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Charlie Cat Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Hi guys, Back with Mike from Retro Gamer Boy. Here we see him playing Metal Slug on the Sega Genesis/ Mega Drive.. Enjoy, From the description, "The Neo geo was the gold standard when it came to arcade ports. And the Sega Genesis and Mega Drive were fortunate to get some amazing ports from the Neo Geo. Games Like Samurai Showdown, Art of Fighting, and Fatal Fury were stunning on Sega’s 16-bit console. One game that did not make it over to the console was Metal Slug, that is until now. In this week's show, we are going to be looking at the latest demo of Metal Slug running on your favourite 16-bit console." Download the Meta Slug demo here👉 https://masteries.itch.io/metal-slug-...

+Charlie Cat Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 Hi guys, Here's the latest news from our AtariAge pal Michael @Steril707 on the latest regarding Hyperblaster. So awesome to read this for sure. Please mention if you like to receive an AES or MVS version to be placed on the list folks. Inviyya https://www.facebook.com/Inviyya After my adventures in Atari XL/XE coding, I am full on working on Hyperblaster again. I will concentrate on finishing the Neo Geo version now, that I have a system/framework in place that will work for both the Amiga and the NG. After that it will be easier for me to port all the assets and level designs over to the Amiga than the other way around (trying to keep both versions at parity at all times just slows things down incredibly, I learned). That said, I am making really good progress at the moment, so hopefully we will see a release this year. Current state is I have a working title screen, the first level is almost finished and can be played through (though with a few glitches yet), Game Over and Level transitions are working as well. Still some game loop related stuff to do, but most of that is quite manageable or even around from the first game anyway and just needs to be included. Well, and then the rest of the levels have to be pixeled and enemies created. Plus music and more sound effects. That's the most fun part and I am looking forward to that.. ; ) So, that's the current state of my new game in the new year. As always, thanks for anybody following, liking and giving support to me. (PS: would anybody be interested in a list where you can state your interest for the Neo Geo carts versions? ) Anthony... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Charlie Cat Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) Hi Guys, More from our friend Michael @Steril707. Please contact him on Facebook or PM him on AtariAge regarding your interest on pre-ordering Hyperblaster on either the AES/MVS or both. The list will be expected to grow as the day progresses. ALERT!! Please note that this currently is an interest list as Michael will explain more from his Facebook posting below regarding a physical release at this time. A link to his FB page will be shared. Inviyya 53m · https://www.facebook.com/Inviyya Interest list so far: AES: Mishen Sam Harjit Singh Sandhu Michael Thomas Charlie Cat Amobile Cédric Battistuta Djé Vylak Somchay Rémy Nguyen Martin Haslinger Rico Stofls Chris McVey Fabian Rosenthal Shane Haines 鄒永煒 Wilson Li Bren McGuire Arnaud Tamarais MVS: Jimmy Itier Seb Wibaut Gareth Powell Francesco Ghidini Andy Johnson Thomas Foltin : please tell me what format you are interested in.. (note: this is only an interest list. You are not obliged to buy anything, nor am I obliged to sell anything mostly since I still don't have an idea about how, if and when production will happen, etc. I will count in you guys as dibs though when things happen, as a thank you for the positive vibes and early support here note2: Will be 20 entries for both versions) Anthony..

awbacon Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 whats your take on modern Neo Geo games @Charlie Cat 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlidellMan Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 XenoCrisis' pixel work was done by Henk Nieborg, a man who worked on Adventures of Flink and Adventures of Lomax in Lemmingland. By the way, @awbacon the Tremors worms are called Graboids. If I ever decide to make new games for the Neo Geo, here are my rules: -Game must have no bugs, glitches, or crashing. Who do you think I am, Running With Scissors? -No fighting games. Unless it has something unique in terms of gameplay, there's no valid reason. -No feature creep, but the game must take advantage of all four buttons. (Not counting start or select.) -Core gameplay must be fun from beginning to end. -No collectors' editions, and the game must be available in both physical and digital. -Game must run on the MVS, AES, and CD without any problems. -It also must take advantage of the system's strengths, including the FM and PSG chips. -Customizable button setup is also necessary considering the button layouts of both the arcade stick and NGCD controller. -The Program and Character ROM boards must not damage the cartridge slots. @Steril707 Excellent work on your horizontal shmup, and will the Amiga version work on NTSC systems? If you need any more music, I can also compose some tracks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
