Japanese Arcade / Home Office / Mini Game Center for Retro Gaming and Driving Games! Ultimate Setup

It's been a few years since I've done an update on my Vewlix or New Net City- so here it is! This is my home office Game Center- a miniature Candy Cab paradise. From light guns to driving sims, I've tried to keep my setups as flexible as possible!

    Is there a specific guide you followed to setup Launch Box / Retroarch on your NNC? A lot of the guides seem to be more focused on Groovy MAME and running at 15khz as opposed to 31khz.

    I subscribed because of your NNC LG Dualup swap, but it's cool to see that you actually found a new CRT monitor for it! Have you only found a donor tube, or a complete monitor? Also, the Blast looks really nice and the Trinitron as well! It's amazing what good quality a consumer TV can bring to the table, it does not look out of place at all in the line up!

    The Blast City actually came with the Toshiba- but I had to recap it. At that point the Kortek that had been in the NNC had been through its second full pro repair, so I put that in the Blast- the main issue was swapping the tubes on their frames. The frame for each machine was specific, and neither of the frames fit the chassis the individual tubes came with. It was a mess in my office for like days.

    Do the brook boards convert everything in one or would I need to buy a different board for each device I’m converting- pc, ps5, Switch so on ?

  • @dorfus

    @dorfus

    3 ай бұрын

    The brook boards connect to anything with usb, and convert inputs for it. Some consoles like PS5 are a little tricky- you will need a higher end Brook board if you want to play ps5 specific software. I’ve also found the ps5 specific software to be picky about usb cable quality, and the number of cables chained together. The Switch does require you to hold down a button at the time the system is powered up or comes out of sleep. For everything else, it’s fairly automatic.

  • @dorfus

    And to just go a step further- Brook makes a lot of adapters that go from say a Dreamcast or Neo geo to usb. Those then connect to the boards as shown.

    @dorfus I just ordered a blast city and I my plan is to run it in tate mode to play vertical shooters. I would love to pick your brain on how you are doing this on your new net city? It looks like you are running a pc with big box. Is this true? If so, how did you configure it. More or less.

  • @dorfus

    @dorfus

    2 ай бұрын

    Yes! That’s exactly what I did. Your ease of doing this will really depend on the type of monitor you get though- my Blast city has a tri-sync, so it can run a 480p signal from the pc easily. The Net City only came with tri syncs. If you have a monitor that can do only 15k, it’s a lot tougher to get a PC hooked up.

I'm not super happy about how the geometry looks at 15k though, way too much distortion on the sides. Definitely made for 31k content.
