Arcade Hardware Talk: Namco 246, Sega Naomi, Sega Triforce,Sega Chihiro, Sega Lindbergh

[@AlexKidd]

The moral of the arcade game buying story. Good luck getting any of this to actually work

[@edstar83]

emulation.

[@vh-ali_n-teen]

Yeah lol. Indeed

[@navysailor1980]

A lot of amazing equipment you have for playing arcade games. Many memories made with friends spent playing in the arcades back in the 90's. With all the equipment you have you can re-live those memories, lucky you!! Great video by the way, very informative. With all due respect, and you keep up with well with all your stuff, but if it were me my mind would be fucked trying to keep up with it all.

[@voltz15]

I still think it's crazy how many of the games were ported and on systems that more or less matched in terms of performance.

[@Shamakitoh809]

A Very underrated video here, nice info, these systems are even more precious now, thanks for sharing.

[@murrij]

Digging these older videos Luke. I just picked a Naomi 1 (just the white box and a tennis cartridge plugged into the top). No cables or anything. Your videos are helping me figure out what I have. :-)

[@MetatroN197924]

I was never believe that i will found a video that speak about the golder age of arcade hardware of 90s.Great finding kudos to you dude for the subject you choose.

[@darkinertia2]

a 30 min video of luke talking about arcade hardware?! how the hell did i miss this!

[@robross6462]

Just picked up a Naomi and this video was extremely helpful! Thank you

[@BrooksterMax]

Great video, really enjoyed all of it and you need strong muscles to lift some if that gear. Apparently you can play some of the Chihiro stuff on a 128mb xbox debug kit like Virtua Cop 3. I have a debug kit so will look into that but nothing beats the original hardware like yours.

[@COBOL]

Very informative video, Luke! Arcade boards are really a jungle! Sega has released last year the Ringedge 2 hardware. I think is another "PC board" like the first one but I can't find many information on internet and I've never seen it in work in arcades...

[@NathanIGreene]

Super informative. Great overview of a lot of hardware.

[@BNGamesYT]

Hey Luke, im trying to get a slave Initial D cab working, do you happen to know where I can find a replacement for master Isolation Transformer? It looks like my cab is missing that and the AC plate, but I might have found one. I posted some vids of my channel on what im dealing with. Thanks dude!

[@cessnaace]

I think the Naomi 2 game that you were trying to think of is "Club Kart," released in 2001. A Naomi arcade game that I'd love for you to cover is Sega's "Airline Pilots" released in 1999. I'm interested because I've played it in a local Dave & Busters numerous times. It uses three monitors though, so I don't know if you have the room to do a setup for it. STAY AWESOME! :)

[@1randombunch]

nice vid ! slight correction though. A NetDimm is not used for streaming emulators, it's for loading game data via the network instead of using a GD-ROM, cartridge, or flash drive.

[@jason29821]

The Sega built arcade hardware is very nice I found it funny you showed the Wangan Midnight for the Chihiro I just had to order more save cards for 2 of them. Naomi and Naomi 2 had some of my favorites though like Crazy Taxi and Marvel vs Capcom 2. The Lindbergh was a awesome like Initial D stage 4 limited and the one I always wanted to see House of the Dead 4 special. We never got those cool Lindbergh attractions.

[@Kevin2me]

Nice Video Luke, all your videos are fab. Naomis are great I just bought a 3rd one this week :) Confidental Mission Gun Cab, 1 for Xbox360\Virtua Teniis and 3rd one running NetDimm. Must try get a Capcom I/O so can get some jamma on them.

[@COBOL]

PS2 was released before the System 246 that's is a derivative hardware made by Namco to optimize costs. So the Memory Card Holder on the PS2 DVD case is "only" a very clever design idea to carry the memory card along the games. For example to transport your GT4 garage to your friend's house... :)

[@GamerX84]

hey Luke you ever look into getting any Sega model 2 games? The top earning arcade game of all time was on that platform, I'd be surprised if you don't have at least one game on that platform. The game I'm referring to of course is Daytona USA. That one is a true gem for arcade collectors for sure! Nice vid, please do more of these if you have other systems!

[@minuteworld7027]

hey man, your video made me wanna save up for my own boards in the future. I have a few quick questions though: 1. can the newer boards save your progress in games? 2. where can you buy the games and accessories for the board? (I know ebay but I wanna know if there's a dedicated website for selling these things) 3. the newest sega board (sega nu) just came out like a year ago. how long would you wager till these things go on sell and are available to the public?

[@oneleaftree86]

Hey luke, did you know you can modify a Dreamcast Keyboard and connect it to the pins on the side of the Naomi Motherboard? There are pinouts floating around on the web. ; )

[@DaveDoc1984]

Cool thanks man, Ive got a kick ass FFB Wheel. Ive got a Porsche 911 Turbo S Wheel for my PC which is awesome. Trouble is I wouldnt know where to start with the System 246 Emulation for Ridge Racer V.

[@ChainerKusunagi]

Awesome vid. Very informative. I've got a buddy looking into the Naomi hardware. I'll definitely show him this vid.

[@loubilly]

Excellent video.Great to learn so much about different arcade systems. It was really interesting to learn about the universal security chip for NAOMI 2 hardware.Is there anywhere you can recommend going for more information on this. Also, in your experience, what is the performance difference between NAOMI 2 and Dreamcast.Is there any noticeable differences between the arcade versions you play and the later dreamcast ports.I am interested in the games and setup as I am really into the dreamcast

[@SirFragalot]

Thanks for the video. I never knew Sega was still making new Arcade hardware. Very interesting.

[@michaelkaminski84]

Thanks for making this Luke, nice to see all that hardware in one place.

[@flightofapaullo72]

I have a Soul Calibur II and everything seems to power up, but I have no picture and no sound. Thanks in advance for any info. Really like your videos and information you always provide!

[@SirMadmanX]

Isn't the Taito X hardware just an embedded windows PC? Kinda like what the Dreamcast was. Anyway nice video and nice collection of more modern arcade hardware.

[@merkreflektion]

Very cool video! How much did it cost / how easy was it to find these boards in Japan?

[@HoZyVN]

This video is perfect timing. As I think I want to purchase my first arcade board/harness etc.

[@darktetsuya]

wow so chihiro was based on the XBOX? dang too bad there weren't more sega home ports (though they did get HotD 3 as I recall) Wangan Midnight would've been cool, wished that one had gotten a home port too! Great video though very informative... I'd heard of most of these but never actually seen them in the flesh!

[@robikaey167]

luke,i will say much much thanks for make this great video. that kind of videos from you are the best. very very cool stuff man. i realy enjoy that...

[@speedysandisk78]

Great video Luke, awesome systems. Is there any chance we'll see some Sega model 2/3 hardware in the future? I'm a big Daytona USA fan but the systems have a LOT of variations and the hardware seems to be very finicky/fragile.

[@neoknux009]

my 30 minutes WELL SPENT! Thx luke! man id love to get into these arcade systems... :/ used to work at an arcade. But its just so damn expensive. its hard for me the justify

[@The_Laser_Channel]

Luke, the Kart game you are thinking of is called "Club Kart"...there are three versions of it

[@greengiant0]

Man looking at all this stuff i never knew existed is great. Only a pc game player all this time. Last time i bought a console was n64 lol. Love watching your video keep up the good work

[@sykoskid]

Hi luke im a big fan of your reviews and updates Ive had neo geo arcades with single slots, but lately been into rom simulation through the rom collector , frontend through hyperspin , I have a 4g harddrive running over 7, 000 mame arcade roms as well playstation1, 2, saturn, dreamcast, nes, snes, coleco, c64, n64, 3d0, sega, 32, cd,model2, 3, not much left to do now, I have been fasinated with sega and my next pc console will be yellow sega lindbergh, just wondering will their be a video on what is needed and what color plays what, and best place to buy , accessories needed to get running.Brian. U.S.looking forward your next review.Thanks.

[@TortureBot]

Nice video with a lot of info on the different arcade hardware. Great job as always Luke. Some of those setups are space hogs aren't they?

[@Progearspec]

I would think that would be a nightmare to keep a track of it all.Beside making sure,not to knock any component loose from the pcb.

[@jason29821]

Sadly I don't know anyone with Lindbergh hardware or software laying around. Who knows maybe one will turn up somewhere. I think they are still to "new" yet to really be popping up as I think there was a game in '09 or '10 released for it.

[@Progearspec]

That's allot of arcade hardware you got there luke,i wonder how you keep track of it all.

[@DaveDoc1984]

Even though im not a big fan of emulation in honesty I am very interested in playing the Arcade Versions of Tekken 4 and Ridge Racer V being a big Ridge Racer fan. Ill have to look into Emulation as My PC is a High End machine so should cope with the System 246 Emulation (should it be possible). Not ideal but I havent got the cash nor the space at the moment to pick up the required Kit :( shame really. Awesome Video as ever Luke :)

[@pastperfectretro]

Nice tutorial vid... that Naomi2 kit is huge.

[@RoZioNoiR]

Couldn't you just run cables from the keyboard to the filterboard? they should require any extras right?

[@MrTechnoSqueek]

I saw Sega Naomi and Arcade in the title. Thats all I need to know this is going to be an awesome video lol

[@ajps12]

great vid man.. I was wondering if you could do a review on the Naomi I see that you don't play to many sports games but I would love to see World series Baseball 2k1 on it PLEEEEASE..THANKS!!

[@DarthNinjaCode]

Thanks Luke for this video. That naomi 2 looks super complicated to work, but I want one to play the azumanga daioh game. :) Again great video and nice collection.

[@cliffbeauchamp]

i have that same set up ! can you tell me more on how to stream the emulators to play on it ? i cant find any info on it !

[@NightPonyGaming]

Do all Naomi games require a disc like that? I found a board I never thought i'd ever seen but never even heard of a disc for it and thats a bit scary since the board I grabbed is one of only two ive seen and the only one that was for sale.

[@debaryhanini4322]

can you please make a video on how to connect multiple namco 246 or 256 for multiplayer like the gundam games????

[@raylyd]

Hi mate to fix that tri force board you would need a reball on the gpu. i have not yet worked on a arcade board but i hope to one day. I was thinking of buying a faulty our run cab from Barry island i know the fault is green no color i was thinking of asking to buy it from them. man you must be well stocked with all that stuff everywhere i am the same here. but without no arcade stuff would be cool .

[@anthonyvazquez4158]

Can you make a video of the 4 switches on the namco 246/256

[@yandman26]

Luke did you ever come across or do you own a capcom cps changer console ?

[@laviniaisassi7934]

Just got a ridge racer v 2player cab for $60 lol thanks for all info..... Also I want make this cab a emulated cab that can play nes-mame , to run all games driver cab with force feed back if game has option. Please let me know where to start, a website or anything to guide me in right direction. Thank you

[@SikSlayer]

Very informative episode. I like your intro, but you don't add it very often....... You should, it looks great, nice beat.

[@RUTGERMORTENSEN]

just wondering could you not rewire an old dreamcast keyboard to run on the naomi?

[@user-9sidfgsxgj]

Very informative video for me, loved every second of it!

[@Briskel2]

Did you make those shelves your self?

[@ScottsGameAsylum]

i was thinking about buying arcade hardware... but i think ill stick to the neo geo lol great vid as always luke!

[@tearsfort]

Great vid Luke! Thanks for the information.

[@loubilly]

thanks for your detailed response

[@anatariperson406]

Just under curiosity, but is there a way to trick a triforce or chihiro type 1 to netboot a type 3 game? Just wondering.

[@x1ic1x]

Awesome stuff Luke never seen or heard of some of these consoles.

[@amplibax8]

Awesome video. Very helpful.

[@tubularLeah]

[@CDScythe]

[@VirtualArcades]

It would be great to see a video on how to attach a gun to a Sega Naomi system.

[@mediacoregroupph]

[@Heysahs007]

[@KimSamaVideos]

[@adariepennant3389]

[@SmoothEmJay]

You sir, are awesome.

[@vampifrog]

love the naomi

[@catherinetheresa9586]

Can you emulate nAMCO 246, Sega Chihiro or Sega Lindbergh in any way on a pc?

[@crimson-foxtwitch2581]

Catherine Theresa no.

[@KevinArcade]

Not my kind of video but liked it anyway to show my support.

[@RonnieCoffman]

Great collection:s you own :)

[@speedysandisk78]

+1 for you good sir.

[@NightPonyGaming]

Great video!

[@sakuragi6802]

That's Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@muabalmomani8130]

Hello I do not speak English Use Google to translate There is a problem in the game Rambo .lindberg I need help (When you run the game written forms showing chapter1 DONT the game) Thank you

[@TommyMacsWorkshop]

Luke! please make more videos on nitro RC cars!

[@xbmc767]

Interesting how 246 games look like standard PS2 games; even the chip is very similar to a normal memory card. I wonder if some game hunter ever stumbled on some 246 games in the wild in a generic PS2 case... Also it’s cool how the Naomi 1 & Triforce look like the console systems that they are based on. The most uninteresting system was the Sega Lindbergh; even the name sounds boring. The system had no style or personality in its design; not to say the 246 would win any beauty contest either.

[@reapermecca5018]

Wait but for the. Naomi. U would not. Need a capcom idlo to play capcom games

[@supergoose.]

I wonder why your videos always load so slow. It hardly loads even in 360p mode. Something must be wrong with the servers.

[@chrishimself84]

Hey it's Luke w00t w00t! :D
