My first Naomi Universal Cabinet

Dear all,

I recently bought a Naomi Universal Cabinet with the Virtua Tennis 2 Cart on it. I payed EUR 325 (or USD 440) for the Cabinet ink. the game. What do you think, was that a fair price? The Cabinet is quiet dirty so I wanted to clean it up. Do you know what's the best way to clean the Cabinet?

Many thanks for your help.

Regards

Milenko

I'd say VT2 cart is about 200? on its own

Really??? 200 EUR?? Incredible. Thanks for that information that makes me kinda happy!

I thought Virtua Tennis 2 wouldn't be so expansive since I saw some prices for VIrtua Tennis 1 at ebay and there the price was aproximate 50-70 EUR.

How much would the marvel vs capcom 2 cart cost?

more or less same stuff, 200?

But careful some toasted roms are floating on ebay etc. Better buy from a known seller here.

There's no real 'special' method for cleaning a cab. All you need is a vacuum, some clean rags, cleaning alcohol for anything like glass or clear plastic and an appropriate cleaner for any grease or gunk that may be present.

Thanks for your hints.

I tried to clean some Burning holes with a lacquer remover (the ones which girls use for their nails). now ther surface is a little bit rough, and not so shiny anymore. Can I apply some lacquer on the surface?

Is there a way to get the burning holes away?

You see I'm really a noob...

Another question. what about the resolution. Can I change the resolution of the display by myself, or does the system do it automatically? Is Virtua Tennis 2 displayed in High resolution?

I'm sorry for my questions. I really have no Idea, but I'm so happy that I own a NAomi now :smt005

Since you have a Naomi Universal, it should already be in hi-res mode (640x480). To confirm this, check that all 4 Naomi DIP switches are off. Remember to switch these while the power is off or you will not see any changes.

Congrats on owning a Naomi cab, these are one of the best cabinets out there.

Your cabinet should be fitted with a Sanwa 31ES 31K monitor, but they can be converted to 15/25/31K autoswitching monitors by replacing the chassis.

I do have Marvel Vs Capcom 2 carts at the shed, also have a complete Naomi mobo with MVC2 fully unlocked (all chars).

I also sell many parts/spares for Naomi cabs.
