    There were a few threads on it a good while back and the general consensus was that it was crap and not worth the money.

    Have a look at this before you spend your hard earned:

    Don't do it!!
    Use you're noggin!
    Buy an MVS motherboard, a Supergun and a cart or two.
    It'll cost a little bit more to start with but you'll be infinitely happier, I promise!
    Also, you could get a 88 in 1 cart for the MVS with mostly everything you could want on it.
    No crappy emulation needed!

    Thank God I didn't buy it..

    I have tons of junk in it's own special junk room. Not neccesarily expensive or overpriced, but mostly all in their original boxes or sitting beside.... :o
    I don't think that room can handle any more cr@p..

    It shouldn't be too hard, they're out there.
    Folk here put them up from time to time on the Marketplace.
    Pick up a Supergun and the other components in the mean time,
    The Supergun model and control options, some use Neo Geo Controllers, some use a Megadrive pad, some let you wire a controller of your own design.
    ATX power supply
    Pick up a MVS multi cart to start out, or your favourite Neogeo game cart, MVS again.
    It's really well worth it, and if you pick up a cheap cab in the future, like the one Mitch had up, you can easily transfer the MVS board into it and sell off the Supergun and PSU.

    Cheers cider.I built a mame cab a few years ago but was never happy with emulation.I just built a custom high end pc and still not happy with emulation on that running a 290x and i7 4770k.I sold my aes a few year ago to a guy on here and regretted it since..Iv my eyes peeled for an mv1b but I'll take any good board I can source tbh.I would love an original mvs cab and have been looking but god hard to source.Import looks the only option and I can imagine shipping rates won't be to wallet friendly.I plan on building a shed soon in the rear garden and put a cab in there out of the wife's field of view.For now I'm happy to go supergun route.

    I'm not the expert but it's probably up to you.
    However the arcade psu has adjustable voltages which might be handy with arcade boards sensitive to such things.
