I have alwaysss wanted a capcom big blue, with Marvel vs Capcom 2. Well I got a big blue and someone decided they didnt like the blue and painted it to match the control panel. and the paint was horrible, like a latex so it was thick and bubbly and runny. What a moron, whoever did this. I HATE YOU.

Citristrip I LOVE YOU. Took a little while, control panel box will be painted black, also joysticks, microswitches, T molding is on the way! and. So if MVC2!!! Cant wait till shes done!.

Heres how I got it:

literally so happy I got the blue back, I was real sad it was painted over. The person even painted the t molding and half the coin door. no taping what so ever.. morons
 
I have that generic CPO on my JAMMA cab. Never seen it on another machine.
 
t molding came in, repainted control panel box, got my new joys and buttons. naomi set up on the way, waiting for monitor chassis repair. Need to buy a marquee this weekend as well. should be together hopefully soon!

I need to glue the t molding to the control panel box, its so loose.
 
Thanks to GuidoTorpedo This nice package came: naomi motherboard, mvc2, capcom i/o, wiring, and manuals!

*pic is horrible because I now realize it was on macro LOL

I now just need a marquee.. and move decals..
 
yeah im gonna redo the control panel soon, and I also finally found a marquee!!

I just got engaged saturday so I gotta slow down on the spending LOL
 
Congrats! So which are you more excited about? :p The game is coming along nicely. What does it take to convert that existing game to Naomi?

The engagement obviously haha ;)

All I had to do was take out the cps set up and slap in the naomi set up lol. The wiring and kick harness was all the same (jamma/cps2 kick) I just had to redo the wiring in the control panel, it was REALLY sloppy.. wires taped together, wires soldered, wires hanging.. I was surprised it worked in the first place.

So all thats left for me is:

Marquee *just paid for today!
New plexi for marquee since someone painted those black strips and its scratched pretty bad
New Plexi for monitor, it has glass now but its heavy and not perfect
New CP overlay capcom diamond plate
New microswitches.. I accidently bought 20gram switches, and they feel horrible, theres no spring to them at all so its like mashing a button without a switch..
*and for someone to either sell or print me a copy of the move decals
