MVS's are region dependent and the region is controlled by the BIOS so I'd say you've got a EU mobo (Neo Bomberman's in Spanish on EU mobo's).

It's always bugged me it's in Spanish when you set the region to EUR, yet the kit's in Japanese

Also don't assume your speakers suck if the audio isn't great, the audio in Neo Bomberman sounds like it's being played through a sock

Actually, the audio from the cab is surprisingly decent. I'd rather be playing a different NG game, but at least I've got the Euro board. I've done a bit of sleuthing, and there isn't a huge amount of info on the MV-1FS board that I appear to have. Is it simply a 1F in a different (larger) package? If it's Euro I'm not interested in replacing the BIOS, so soldering isn't a problem. But it's got stereo output as standard, I think, which is very nice. Anyone have any more info about this board?

Now to find a nice Metal Slug 3 and relive 1999 all over again.

Ah, think I answered my own question with a bit more time on the ArcadeOtaku wiki. The manual for the F board shows my exact board. So no matter what Legend HK trading company calls it, I obviously have an F board.
