Title: Looking for some Neo Geo MVS stuff
Post by: nintendodork on December 07, 2009, 04:53:39 pm
PM me for the details, but I'm in need of someone who can design from scratch or heavily modify an arcade stick (swap buttons, new face design, etc.) for a Neo Geo controller.  When I get a consolized MVS, I would like to have an AES controller that resembles the controls on a real MVS cabinet.  Pretty much exactly like this:

You'll have better luck asking at Shoruyken.com but it won't be cheap...

That's what I was going to suggest, but it'll be $200+ easy

Really? :o  My plan B was to buy one like it off eBay for $114.  I wanted to see if I could get it cheaper. :P

Can't you just use an AES stick?

I can.  That's actually what I meant if no one understood that.  I mean that I want someone to modify a regular AES stick that I own or that someone else would have that they'd be willing to give up for it.  If all else fails, I'm sure I can find a place that makes high-quality decals or something for the face, and have someone local change the buttons.

Maybe you should try massystems. I have a snes stick by them that is pretty solid. I purchased it at a local store years ago though, not through their website. Here is a link:

Thanks for the link, Turbo D.  I'm also looking for a place to buy MVS cartridge shells.  I know they come in several different colors, and I'm sure there's a place somewhere that has a bunch of empty ones for sale (like RetroZone with their colorful NES cartridge shells).  Thanks in advance.

Edit* Actually, have you contacted that website at all Turbo D?  Instead of getting a consolized MVS, I can just get their MAS SuperNOVA SuperGun for a little over $100 cheaper, and it comes with two controllers, which can be exactly what I'm looking for!  If they're still active, then there's no doubt about what I'm going to get.  However, if for whatever reason they are defunct, there are plenty of other places to buy a SuperGun.  These look like they're built nicely, and it'd be so awesome to have one.
