Sega-Naomi

Hi everybody!

I've had a Naomi mobo with MvC2 for about 6 months, but just bought an Alien Front twin sit-down setup (got it for $425!!!) from a local arcade/lazertag/paintball establishment.



Now that I have 3 Naomi mobos, I am looking at getting a GD-Rom setup for it.



My question is: what are the components I need to run a GD-Rom from my Naomi mobo?

I have a Guilty Gear disc and security chip which I'm dying to play on one of my cabs....



Anyway, if you want to check out my cabs, see here:

Super Cool



Is you alien front based on NAOMI?



Cart or GD if So?

Yeah, there's a Naomi setup under each seat. Cartridge based, and sweet lord you should see the size of 'em. Literally like TWO MvC2's or CvS:Millenium FIght carts stacked on top of each other.



Check this thread over at Neo-Geo.com for pics and the story if you care about that sort of thing...

You got a very unique pickup on the Alien Front.



Not too many been seen on this forum.



Nice to see what one actually looks like.



BTW, The Alien Front Cart is the same size as the MVC2 cart



The reason they alien front cart looks alot bigger is that there is a NAOMI link board sitting between the cart and the motherboard. This is for linking the two naomi motherboards together (one in each cabinet) for linked game play



Great score :smt023





And welcome to the forum :smt006

Good score on Alien Front, that game is rare!!

Thanks guys.

Yeah strangely enough, I had JUST sold my Daytona USA twin cab for $525, so just happened to have the space and the cash when this came up.

And believe it or not, I only bought it for the 2 crisp 27" monitors, and 2 NAOMI mobos. Personally I thought it was worth it for just those components, but then I got it home and actually played it... Now I don't plan on disassembling it for parts.

Great game, just wish there was like an expansion pack for levels or something. There are only 3, and it only takes like 20 minutes til you're starting over again.

It's a wash, NAOMI cabs cost 3 times as much here :smt010

Hey to be fair they usually go for a little more here, too. I knew it needed work, didn't feel like doing it myself, and was tired of playing it (honestly, NOT playing it).

I'm guessing you are talking about the original Daytona. I still play my Daytona USA 2 Power Edition all of the time. Probably one of the best drivers ever. IMHO.



I also use the same cab to play these in order of preference
