Can you take a SNK Neo Print Machine and use it to play MVS carts?
No, they use different hardware.
Many years ago upon picking up an NEO GEO MVS arcade machine up in NY from an operator..On the way out he had several machines in his yard(with snow on them) ..
These machines were sadly fixable but not worth it to the operator.
I could not take any of the machines,I didn’t have the room but the operator said I could gut them of anything and take it free.
So I tore apart the Tekken 2 and...The NEO PRINT machine was complete less the monitor..I gutted it and I mean gutted it.(a lot of stuff in that machine)
.I found that the board is a Standard STV board but is not set to play standard STV games set up in the NEO PRINT machine..The board I belive had soft dip settings that needs to be changed to use it.
I actually kept that board as my own STV board that I used to put in one of my (jamma) MVS machines... and sold my more used STV board ..
The NEO PRINT machine had some print carts in it that I later sold ..I still have the GLASS NEO PRINT marquee and I think the Control panel..
