Shipping wasnt that expensive,and I buy games in batch runs,to keep shipping cost down.This has saved me alot.Game Theory is a wonderful seller,with low shipping cost and great prices on ebay.he has NEVER let me down ever.Same goes for the West Exit.Hit Japan is also pretty good on the NeoGeo stuff.I actually held a wonderful NeoGeo Aes auction about a year ago,with a system,2 sticks,phantom-1 converter,and 19 games for over 800 bucks.I put maybe 500 into it all.Pure profit.The Massystem supergun,the one I had,and a few others I have messed with,were top notch.The only grip I had with mine was the cheap 4 dollar Radio shack speaker in it,which I switched out,and the jamma harness not giving enough slack,it was wiretied down with too short a length to let me place a arcade pcb on it.I fixed this easy,just undid the wire ties and put new ones in after I pulled out the desired length I needed.After telling this to friends,about the harness thing,when they ordered from him they requested it to have better length and he did this for them with no problems.The guy at Massystem would also do custom adapters for Strata and Midway stuff,and old game slike Robocop and the such for cheap next to nothing kinda prices.My only gripe about the Great Western Trade supergun is the fact that it wasnt large enough to place a pcb on it,however it did have all the needed video outs,and great joysticks.This is the same way I feel about yours.They look compact,which is wonderful and looks really cool,but unhelpful when you have large pcbs,espically ones with no plastic feet,like system 16 pcbs,with the system 16 adapter jamma harness added to convert things,it becomes a mess.that and with touchy boards like Strata game pcbs,they are finicky as is,you should'nt dare place them on a floor of any type if you can help it.Basically what I mean is looking cool doesnt always mean your getting the job done.This and I couldnt tell if you offered it,but it looked like you just support a 4 button setup,and offer SNK joysticks.Price wise,the Massystem setup is the best bang for your buck in my opinion.The supergun looks great,has a great finish,is large enough to hold a pcb on its top,has full 6 button support,includes 2 nice heavy duty 6 button arcade sticks,all had for about 300 bucks,and if I remember the shipping was like maybe 30-40 for me.The guy used to do MVS to AES cart converts also.He did a quality job.I also remember him as being one of the first to offer S-video for Neo AES decks,and Tg-16 region mods,back in the 90ies,before everyone else joined the bandwagon.Sorry you took offense to me giving you a complement,but this is a forum,where we get to express our opinions,ideas,give complements,advise,and what not,and if that upsets you dont read any post I do,youll live much happier.Im a very critical,judging,and praising person all at the same time.I will tell you up front what I like and dont like at the same time,and as I told you what I thought,which was that I felt your models looked great,with "very close quality" to Massystems and GWT,this means I thought yours looked great over all"what other superguns can I compare them to?",and I had even emailed you to see if you would do a custom order sometime,build a custom one,for a friend and me,the email came from colleendragonfly@hotmail.com.I cant judge yours any further quality wise because I dont own one,I can only look at the pics of these little boxes you have with a switch and pretty led lite and go "wow,he got it all to fit in there so nicely".I also asked in a email if you sold the cd-drives you striped out of Duos,and other hardware,and if you still had Art of Fighting for sale on Arcade Cd.I never got any responses,so owell.My money goes to other people who wanted it more I suppose"this is how I looked at it/felt about it at least".
As for this,I will also say,and I know Ill get flack for it here.I dont hero worship anyone.I know you have impressed a few on here,with custom ordered Duos,and I know that because of this they will think anything you do is wonderful,thrilling,and great and if you hooked up a cooling fan to a dead rosebush and asked a few bucks for it they would probably think that was wonderful too.They will compliment you to no end,no matter what,wether you do a average job,or perfection on something.at least I offered you a honest opinion with some real first hand experience on the other products.I guess people on here and at a certain other place have made your ego swell too much.Ill be sure not to give you any compliments on your projects anymore,or constructive comparisons for that matter,as I dont like to hurt anyones feelings.
