    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    Set your expectations. This monitor pretty much sucks in all aspects besides it's physical dimensions. Its best application is for 4:3 racing games. Even then, if you LOVE a particular game, fix the CRT instead. I operate an arcade and I've replaced my racing game CRTs with these. I keep those...

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    Just because they don't work for your weird edge case doesn't mean they're trash.

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    The updated board for the old ones still hasn't shipped. Paid shipping for it a month ago.

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    That's interesting but $600 is rough when most of us are putting them into location games we don't really care about.

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    Emailed Unico for the pcb upgrade when they said we could (August 1). Took them over a month to respond to it. 2 weeks later, board has still not shipped. The sad cruel irony that Unico is such an absolute joke of a "company" with the only 26" 4:3 LCD on the market.

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    I would hope they update the product on their website with "UPDATED MODEL" or something, but maybe that's giving them too much credit.

    My experience with the Unico Phoenix 26" LCD monitor

    [Unico on left] After a ton of fiddling with settings on the Unico, GBS 8200, and the Triforce CRT settings, I got the image to look acceptable. Would I use it for raster-based 15k games? No. I fundamentally don't like the look of LCDs, especially budget TFT displays like this Unico. The pixel...

    New Ice Cold Beer coming 2022

    MSRP still $5k as previously stated?

    Contra high score save kit?

    Came here in search of high score save kit :) No. It's a mathematical certainty that starting from the beginning gives you the best score, provided you last long enough. But let's say you did start near the end and that part of the game gives more points. You'll still want to start as early as...

    Anyone see a SFII with a second monitor?

    Yeah. Old folks seem to forget that human beings were continually being born after them. Every new fighting game made arcades super hot. SFII, MK, Tekken. Yes, people played and loved these games.

    Nintendo PlayChoice. Why?

    lol @ the tags. KLOV never disappoints. Well, thanks for the $1900 investment I guess! Off to buy some more spawns of Satan NES cartridges for my worthless, niche NES!

    Nintendo PlayChoice. Why?

    Not at all. I like many VS games -- VS Balloon Fight 2-player is incredible when played on a Red Tent; very innovative split-screen for its time. But NES adds another mode to it. Same with Wrecking Crew -- 2-player is better on Red Tent, but NES adds deeper puzzle gameplay. Same for Excitebike...

    Nintendo PlayChoice. Why?

    Pretty sure most if not all black box NES games were VS games first. A tell-tale sign of this is NES SMB where obstacles are missing but the blocks for them are still there, like the fire rods in the castles -- they just deleted stuff to make the game easier. But don't get me wrong, often the...

    Nintendo PlayChoice. Why?

    VS games are (sometimes very) different from their NES ports, so those aren't relevant to this topic.

    Nintendo PlayChoice. Why?

    First of all this is genuine curiosity and don't mean to be offensive in any way. I repeat, this is not sarcasm or edge lord. Why do you desire PlayChoice when you can sit on a comfy sofa with your RGB modded NES? Even go so far as to install NES controllers on your cabinet or adapters to play...

    What the Hell Happen Klover's

    I got into the hobby 5 years ago and even in that short time span, I've seen the market dry up significantly. As with anything that was once plentiful and becomes scarce, rabidity follows. But I still ain't paying $850 for Wrestlefest.

    What the Hell Happen Klover's

    Not what I've been seeing on Craigslist, eBay, and yes, KLOV the past year or two. The shit sits unsold for months if not years because sellers refuse to lower prices to what people are willing to pay.

    Operation Wolf - very difficult?

    Dumb comment, but yes, that's what I'm trying to determine. I'm awesome at most light gun games (I could beat Time Crisis 2 on 1 credit BITD), but I'm not at this one, and I'm not sure what I can do better. Some video games are just very difficult.

    Operation Wolf - very difficult?

    Does anyone agree? Stage 1 is easy, but I can beat Stage 2 once in a blue moon. And it seems random, not like I "did really well that time". I've tried these dips for Easy but it didn't seem to make a difference. Is there something to the gameplay I'm missing? Game Difficulty *Normal...
