Can you at least afford to put the dollar sign in the correct place?

And this, retarded underage posting was revived.

Replace DH with Ristar then probably.

>>4072426
Ristar has that garbage music stage, though.

It ain't easy being green.

>>4071080
>>4069347
What map is this?

>>4070592
cabinets themselves are dead simple.
the whole point of a JAMMA connector is that a line (like coin, or test, etc) is grounded to "activate".

Same for buttons and directions on the joystick.

Almost everything not video or audio related will have 2 wires connected to it
the data wire (P1 button 1, Test, coin 1, etc)
and a ground wire. A properly wired cab will use a single ground loop that daisy-chains all the ground points together into the power supply's ground terminal.

As far as repairing PCBs, electrical theory and some youtube videos on electrical engineering, soldering, how to use a multimeter, logic probe, oscilloscope, etc will teach you a lot.

>>4070592
Coin slots like in your pic are almost entirely mechanical, not electronic. Tear a broken one apart. There's a little balance that makes sure it doesn't weigh to much or too little and then possibly a magnet that makes sure its not ferrous. As far as the pcbs go learn to read electronics schematics like with a 100-in-1 electronics projects kit. Then you can step up to considering the discrete logic at work.

I bought an arcade machine more than a decade ago with zero experience. It showed up broken, so I was forced to teach myself how to get it back in working order. Today I fix machines for a living.

No matter how old or new, arcades are essentially oversized computers: there's a power source, something that runs the game, input (buttons/joystick), and output (image/lights/sound). A basic fundamental understanding of circuitry can get you 80-90% of the way there.

I look at arcades as giant Lego or Erector sets, just be sure you ask why it's called a "flyback" before you touch it.

ljn defender was never right

Yes it was.

I don't remember this part of Punch-Out, what's this guy's gimmick?

The one that's the shortest and doesn't waste too much of your time

Be warned OP; this board as a regular poster or two that loathe Treasure with all their might and will flock to say how they think Treasure is overrated.
Anyway, what was their first game, Gunstar heroes, right? One of my favorites on Mega.
Sin and Punishment might be my fav by them.

Favorite game is Guardian Heroes.

Anyway, what this guy >>4070406 said, the only threads that are guaranteed to have as much butthurt/autism as Treasure threads are the Castlevania threads and the NESfag-monopolized Survival Horror threads.

>>4070223
Hope at some point to go for Tactics Ogre.
Should I go for snes or psp port?

>>4070235
The SNES version is fucking brutal, and you can feel how dated it is. However, I would consider the PSP version to be too easy, but very enjoyable nonetheless. I found the added ability system to be underdeveloped and disappointing, but the game is still good.

It's almost as good as FFTactics. If the ability system was more competent, then the PSP remake would be a clear winner in my eyes. The game is also a fan of "this new class is just like this old class you've been using, but better in every way".

>>4070242
>The SNES version is fucking brutal, and you can feel how dated it is
Games don't age reeeeee

nah you're fine. Just decide before you go in whether you prefer the snes or gba music

VC version is the Woolsey translation. I personally am fine with that and indeed find it to be the more approachable translation, but weeb purists REEEE hard over it.

>>4069732
SNES version = original version so I'd prefer that by default

>>4069734
As long as the translation properly captures the intended mood of the dialogue I'l be happy with it

>>4069237
Two games I never see recommended that I've been enjoying are Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue and Time Force. Developed by Natsume, both games have tons of polish, from graphics and music to gamjeplay. Each game has multiple objectives in each stage along with multiple endings. Even without the license, both are great action platformers. I wish I gave both a chance as a kid.

>>4069237
For The Frog the Bell Tolls: Requires an English translation patch to play. This was a predecessor to Link's Awakening, they used the same engine. A very charming adventure game with a silly sense of humor. I really like it.

Trip World: A platformer by Sunsoft. The graphics look great for gameboy, often called "gimmick on gameboy". I wouldn't say it is as good as gimmick but it's still a good game.

Legend of the River King: Simple jrpg with a fishing theme, just a cute game in general.

Try Bonk's Adventure and Bonk's Revenge. Not sure why all the info on these games says they're ports when they're basically new games.

sure you just cant customize your characters. The editor is also a pain.

fighter maker 2 on ps2 is slightly better.

Honestly, you probably won't even play the new scenario, because you'll be burned out of FM by then. The game isn't that long, but it burns people out pretty quickly. So I say, go with whichever one you want. I'd rather be able to skip battles - although you can speed them up in the SNES emulator, so that's a moot point.

About the translation, yeah, some aspects were removed, mainly Royd's suicidal tendencies, but there's still some of it left (when you fight the old man in the Arena, for example).

Anyway, the hardest part are the first 6 or 7 stages, specially the first fight against that squad which I forgot the name. Missiles are cheap as hell, but fuck it. Rain missiles on everyone.

is fm3 worth it?

>>4066054
it is

Just the right amount of strange - to have some moments that make you go "wtf", but not so much that you could call It surreal.
