Over the years I’ve owned multiple Neo Geo Arcade Cabinets, tons of Neo Geo boards, and a drawer full of cartridges for the system.
#Metal slug 6 arcade retropie update#
I need to update everything to USB based controllers and then only a single USB cable is needed.I’m going to start this with saying that the Neo Geo is one of my favorite systems EVER. To make it removable I used a parallel port connector. So the control panel connects to the an Ipac that stays in the cabinet. I will want to update my control panel and how it connects. The only thing I would add is a trackball because I love games like Centipede and Missile Command.
It doesn't autodetect some correctly so you have to go through the trouble of manually setting video resolution. I am noticing advmame is having resolution issues for some games.

Right now I have the RPi2 hooked up to my big screen TV and using a wired Xbox controller while I try it out. Apparently those older versions have issues with CP2. It plays everything I want, except 1942: The Loop Master. Right now I am running PiPlay because it has advmame which uses a newer version of mame than mame4all. I have been playing around with the RPi2. However, with RetroPie and PiPlay I started looking at the RPi as the computer for it. I have an old mame cabinet, however, the computer in it died and I haven't done anything with it in years. If you're worried about fitting through standard doors, make the control panel removable using snap latches, If you're using a RPi for the low cost, I'd probably suggest splurging a bit more on a low-end NUC or some other low-end x86 machine it'll likely cost a bit more, but will perform much better.Įdit: Second look after coffee, extend the width of the control panel by a few inches, the player 1 joystick looks like there's not enough hand-rest for the left hand.

I think (I could be wrong here) but the 2d surface-based outputs are not really well supported, and I'm not well versed in the RPi's 3D abilities (if any, but if you're doing the compositing in software at high resolutions, you're gonna have a bad day). Even though it doesn't seem it, mame does depend on 3D acceleration. Mame was built with x86 in mind, with several x86-specific JIT and DRC cores, leading other platforms like ARM, MIPS and SPARC to use slower emulation methods, and with the RPi's slower core this can compound the problem.īesides the core, there's also graphics problems I'd worry about. If you really want to use it, it will be okay for much older games, but as you start to get into games from even the early 90s the RPi will start struggling. My big concern, though, would be the RPi being at the heart of the machine. While the skull-handles are cool and work well with the theme, have a way to swap them out they will get uncomfortable quickly during longer play sessions. So many first-time mame cabinet builders fall into the trap of "I WANT TO PLAY ALL OF THE GAMES!" and put every control mechanism under the sun on the control panel, making it an unusable, unintuitive mess. Great design and layout, I really appreciate that you kept the control panel simple. I hope to spray paint all black on the cabinet (I have had good success at making spray paint look like a powder coat in the past) and the graphics will be laid on top of that. I don't want any of my graphics to contain black. For the graphics I will have vinyls professionally made.
I don't consider myself the best designer but I have spent a lot of time on this and gotten input from many talented people. Pretty simple, just going to use Retropie. My cabinet will include a coin mech but it is actually illegal to take money on a MAME cabinet. There are a few YouTube videos that make this look rather promising but I have not tested it myself just yet.
