All Naomi cabinets where sold with the VMU linking kit wiring, but they seem to be as rare as hens teeth!!

I got a set of these, I'll take a picture at some point, these are the offical wiring for the Sega VMU unit, which I have never seen for sale, ev3r!

But with the Capcom panel you can play the games with the DC pad not just access VMU options.

Haha! :smt005 I don't think he'll be letting those go. I think the only time we'll ever see it is the pic that he'll eventually post.

Nope, I'm getting ready to move, so I'll try to sort it out after that. I'll probably just bug you to sell me yours.

Then there would be a large hole in my cab rendering it useless :smt009

Damn - that pretty much says it all, you have a way with words RGP. Does anyone want a Capcom Impress panel that's pretty much useless as tits on a bull?

How Much? :smt006

It is possible to construct your own ghetto harness to use DC controllers on naomi, but it is quite useless as very few games support it. There was a diagram floating around from neo-geo2.
