Left, right and center speakers goes below the bezel and the VMU cover gets replaced by black speaker grid. This is one of the mock-ups we’re working on at the moment.īase color of the cab is going to be gun metal gray, the bezel will be modified to fit a 27″ wide screen LED monitor and get covered with a carbon fiber vinyl (looks awesome and will be much easier to apply than an A-grade paint job). Stompp and I have been throwing ideas back and forth for a long time. Luckily Johan, who sold me the cab, also had a surround and moshpit over at AO had a spare bucket lying around – et voilà – meet the Net City HD – the WIP version 😉 Since my donor cabinet used to be a Wild Riders I had to find both a control panel surround and bucket. With the legs in place it was time to get a glimpse of the future. Then mount the legs and mark up the holes for the three remaining bolts. Easiest way to get the holes correct was to start with the holes for the two bolts on the base. So the first step in order to get a feeling for the profile of the finished cabinet was to cut the legs down. Our plan is to make a sit-down cabinet, much like the New Net City. Notice I had to cut away the bezel entirely on the sides – maximized monitor area 😀 There’s gonna be a lot of sawing in both the bezel and the front cover! In the pictures below you can see the bare panel and how it fits behind the front cover. As you can see from the picture above the monitor will fill up the space entirely. In the end we let go of the fast format switching and decided on a Philips 273E3LHSB.

The big issue of course was how to know what the panels looked like on the inside without taking them apart? Luckily an acquaintance works for a company repairing monitors and he was able to help us in our search.

Fast switching between 16:9 and 4:3 screen formats.

Centered VESA mount directly on the panel (since the case has to go).

Case (frame) had to be possible to remove.

Apart from the usual criteria when selecting a monitor low input lag and response time, we also had the following: In the Naomi/New Net City we can squeeze in a 27″ wide screen monitor (which is much easier to come by) and it’s also more upright and since viewing angles are an issue with LCD/LED monitors this is preferred. It could only house a 26″ monitor and the tilt of the screen was too large for providing a decent viewing angle. This proved to have more than one drawback. In my previous attempt on an HD cabinet I was planning on using an Atomiswave SD cabinet.

The protection was way too weak and with Arcana Heart 3 being cracked within days after initial release Examu decided to retire the ex-BOARD and move future releases to Taito’s Type X2 and NESiCAxLive platform. This would sadly become the downfall of the ex-BOARD. The ex-BOARD relied on copy protection built into the motherboard (as opposed to Type X2’s dongles). The Type X2, released the year before) on the other hand already had better specs than the ex-BOARD. On certain points it was more well designed fanless (quiet), no PSU (quiet), cartridges (instead of hard drives and USB dongles), a well thought through case (easy to work with). The system had many similarities with Taito’s Type X2 system. The rise and fallĮxamu pushed the ex-BOARD as their own proprietary arcade platform under the slogan “For the future of arcade games.”. Only four games were ever released for the ex-BOARD:Ī fifth title was planned but never saw the daylight: Monster Ancient Cline. The Examu ex-BOARD was released in 2008 and as Taito’s Type X2 it was based on Windows XP Embedded.
