Love that you have a retro stockpile joystick. His stuff is great.

[@blackvulcan3]

Cool I have the unibios 4.0 already, hope he gets some VMC versions back soon.

[@horus1981]

Love your content as always! Always fun to watch

[@bluefat8096]

I didn't t know that the NeoBiosMasta 2020 is solder free. This is a good video and I like it very much.

[@TheGameBeaters]

Oh yeah! Think I saw you talking about this on the tweets. Looks very interesting.

[@J.Crooner]

👍😎👌Nice video. Wanted to know does this new upgrade have cheats for the game Gunlord and would this chipset also work with the AES console too?

[@knoxximus]

Where can I get a joystick like that tho? 👀

[@ozzie.l.6035]

That is really awesome!! 👍

[@ConsoleCombat]

Is there an update on where to get this? The website doesn’t seem to work anymore

[@CrAzY-tt7dw]

Just checking why you did not have to solder anything to the NeoBioMasta, I am seeing a lot of people having to solder pins 10 and 12 to get this to work, are you finding you don’t need this step if you fully remove your old bios ? Thanks and keep up the good work :)

[@Madlittlepixel]

with the new version, either remove bios or disable it by lifting the pins listed, no need to solder, thats for the older version.

[@OGHUGO]

Man, i wanted to grab one but thought it was fine if I waited since I don't even have a consolized MVS yet.. but I will have to keep an eye on this.. Thanks man.

[@Madlittlepixel]

He should be listing them again very soon~

[@MrSolidtiger]

Is there one for CD and CDZ? This is probably the best mod ever for any console. Way tooooo easy!!

[@DarkusObscurius]

Great review.

[@chrisw8069]

Thanks for this. Any suggestions for replacing the save battery so we can save our high scores and bios settings?

[@Madlittlepixel]

There are kits out there to install a Cr2032, you have to disable the recharging circuit prior to using. There is also a rechargeable batter you can wire up that seems fairly simple that ive seen people use, I will be trying it out at a later date. The rechargeable battery is here: ebay.to/3bXFL0w The kits I havent seen sold anywhere except dissasembled with OG NeoBiosMasta clones on ebay. Ive heard the 2032's wind up dying very quickly for a lot of people, so I havent attempted it though I have a kit. Ill explore more in another video once I test these options out.

[@chrisw8069]

@@Madlittlepixel Thanks. I'm really enjoying this thanks to you. Hopefully, can get the save issue addressed and then it really will be the ultimate neo geo. Also have the Neo sd MVS on the way. I'm all in.

[@chrisw8069]

@@Madlittlepixel I got this all installed thanks to this video. Any progress on a potential battery replacement?

[@scottythompson940]

Cool video tech talk

[@apr2499]

This may sound like a crazy question, but how to I turn off PickNMix? I really want to get back to the 161-in-1 menu.

[@Madlittlepixel]

Power cycle the system without holding any buttons. I'm not sure if you are saying it's just stuck that way but I've not had that happen before

[@ClbnaVGM]

Is there a way to buy the jamma connector of the C box only ?

[@apr2499]

Any chance you have an extra NeoBiosMasta 2020 for sale in your store? I really screwed up when removing the bios in my Cbox MVS and ripped out many of the pads including CE and OE. I’ve got the older NeoBiosMasta that requires the CE and OE soldering.

[@Madlittlepixel]

Ah man that sucks. I actually sold the last one i had that i wasnt using in a bundle with a MVS board. Those traces definitely can be weak and easy to pull up, which I did on a unit as well and went with the 2020 biosmasta... Hopefully he gets more up soon as they do come in handy. Wish i had another, id definitely sell it to you for what I paid.

[@apr2499]

@@Madlittlepixel The NeoBiosMasta 2020’s just came back in stock (without Unibios 4.0), so I ordered one! Thanks for thinking of me though!

[@PersianImm0rtal]

This BIOS looks so cool, but I am terrified that I will break my CBOX if i try to upgrade lol

[@CC-fp4op]

What screen are you using there

[@thetigerman]

How does the version 2 cart hold up. I have version 1, if 2 has better improvements I will buy it.

[@Madlittlepixel]

The one I have I couldnt even say 100% is a version 2. It has characteristics of a v2 but the board is totally different. The one I have I never seen documented, so maybe its a v2 revision or a v3 I dunno. But it has performed very well for me.

[@fkat1666]

I thought the bios was updated on the CBOX

[@Madlittlepixel]

Have to check the seller to make sure it has unibios 4.0 before buying one, but a lot of them were shipped with an earlier free unibios version.

[@ZZKJ396]

Nicely done, not too interested in the Nintendo scene but these obscure retro systems are much dearer to my heart. Glad I hung back a little on unsubbing, great vid!

[@DeepGreenOsaka]

This is very tempting. Did you order the Cbox and 161-in-1 cart set? Or did you order them separately? I'm still on the fence about this seeing as the MVSX is coming out soon. Seems like they'll be around the same price if you get all the add-ons for the Cbox (controller(s), convertors/cables, NeoBiosMasta 2020). The main difference now is that you can play every Neo Geo game with Unibios on the Cbox while currently only 50 on the MVSX (which isn't even out yet).

[@Madlittlepixel]

Emulation versus original hardware... Just whatever your preference is. I dont know the quality behind the MVSX, but yeah price point will be close between the two. I bought the cbox with the 161 in 1 bundle. In reality minus the controller the cbox 161 in 1 and The NeoBiosMasta with unibios 4.0 I spent less than $400 including shipping costs. Controllers you can use USB or SNK on this machine... So could not have to spend anything or could build a controller or mod one... Tons of possibilities.

[@DeepGreenOsaka]

@@Madlittlepixel One of the main reasons I'm considering this option is because the MVSX doesn't ship to Japan, which I find odd and annoying. I can get this cdbox pretty easily as aliexpress ships to Japan. Another advantage of getting this is I could buy MVS carts of games that I really enjoy playing. I can get SNK controllers pretty easily as there are a bunch of used video game shops near where I live, which is nice. But I do love that controller that you have, though it is pricey. Anyway, lots to consider and as you said, tons of possibilities.

[@ronm6585]

Thanks.

[@the_konami_kid]

Dude that controller is dope!! Where did you get it???

[@Madlittlepixel]

The controller was more expensive than the Cbox LOL! Its from Retro Stockpile, currently sold out but he told me he was possibly making more at the end of this month, here is the listing ebay.to/3bVumOQ

[@vajpero]

@@Madlittlepixel I have one too and I love it. He's very friendly and helped me reduce the import tax via the value on the package.

[@KidApoc]

Ah,that’s where they sell em now. They used to sell em on Etsy.

[@vajpero]

@@KidApoc you can contact him directly too :)

[@KidApoc]

@@vajpero ah nice,thanks for the tip!

[@miamiheat33162]

👍👍

[@Richbroth]

Hell ye

[@WoollyMittens]

"Solder free"... just rip this entire chip off the board. Righty then.

[@Madlittlepixel]

What does using clippers to snip metal legs have to do with soldering? And also the previous version no matter what you did with the original bios chip you had to solder 2 wires from the NeoBiosMasta to the board... this one you solder nothing. This is very simple compared to the older ways of installing a unibios into an MVS1C. So yep righty then 😜
