I'm new to this hobby. I have no idea what that means. :oops:
That means the first and huger board at the bottom (mother board, called A-board), with a Jamma connector, is a newer revision coming with Street Fighter II and later CPS-1 games. The Xtal (crystal) is 12 MHz instead of 10 MHz.

Thank you!

Anyone have opinions on the nature of this CPS1.5 Punisher game? It came without the plastic case for one thing.

legit , has original mask roms etc i have seen different rom arrangement but presume that may be region specific , there is nothing definitive out there on it but quiet a few cps1.5 boards no longer or don't have a case for whatever reason.

A good reason to peel a CPSQ game out would be the casing fan getting faulty and being unable to source a replacement. If that board was meant to run naked from factory, the C board would have black insulation foam glued to it and the battery, to prevent an accidental short and deletion of encryption data. The board likely was stripped down by one of it's previous owners.

Also thanks. Now I know what the foam is and why it's missing from desuicided boards.

New to this hobby and I love the learning.

It is, or bits of it are. Suicide has been removed and/or it's been re-regioned. I think it's had corrosion issues affecting a row of sockets, so someone has removed the sockets and soldered the ROMs in directly but the legs are still a bit scabby.

It'd have to be -very- cheap, does it actually work?

I think it was being sold as working. Yeah.

What's up with this King of Dragons board? I've seen it with many less roms.

There are different versions - some do have lots of chips.

Is this guy trying to scam me? Battle Circuit only doesn't come in a USA romset right?

Also, the lack of battery means it must be Pheonixed cause I don't see an infinikey.

"The label is repo, eproms all original. Currently suicide free,But if you need it,I reinstall the battery."

Huh?

That’s a bit of an oddity :wtf: You have Mask ROMs (so it’s not a conversion). And while those ‘red number’ EPROM seals are less common…at least some of them look legit. However, EPROM seals 01, 02, 03, 04 and 07 look off – the Capcom font doesn’t match and the text looks too fat. I’d assume all of those have been reburnt and/or have repro labels.

I believe the InfiniKey installs underneath this board revision (93646B-7). However, there definitely is no (legitimate) USA region…so you wouldn’t be able to use an InfiniKey, anyway. Likewise, there is no USA Phoenix data/EPROMs.

Some people have hacked CPS2 games to regions they weren’t originally released in. So, I’m guessing this has been changed to USA using hacked decrypted ROMs? :think:

Do Limenko Power System 2 (Legend of Heroes, Dynamite Bomber, Super Bubble 2003) carts have socketed roms? And are they windowed?

And the motherboard should have a volume adjustment dial (like a gameboy's volume adjustment), not a pot way in that one needs a screwdriver to adjust, correct?

I have a feeling I was sold a converted cart and a repaired motherboard.

Also all MVS games had mask roms from the factory, right?
