You know, I thought I wouldn't, but I really like World Heroes on the MVS. I really do.

Congrats, be careful though cause collecting arcade cabs can become quite addictive.

There should be dip switches on the board and one should control whether its on freeplay or not. There is a picture of what they look like here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DIP_switch

Each boards switches are different, so if you don't have the manuel you'll have to find a copy of one online. I'm sure someone here could help with more Neo Geo specific questions, http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/index.php

hey dude great find, hoping to pick mine up tomorrow! I am a neo-geo.com member , beware that some of the guys are kinda rude, and I MEAN RUDE to noob questions without using the search option first for the answer your loooking for. But it is a great place for info, my user name on there is stevan5150.

The 100 in 1 carts are not exactly 100 "true" "original" neo geo games, some are "hacks" of other games, I think i remember hearing that only like 50 or 70 are true neo geo games. There is a great topic on neo-geo.com about it.

Love the tri-speaker setup. Do you have a stereo single slot? Gotta redo that CP, though.

Thanks Kingdomheights. I'll check it out. What system are you getting? It is a single slot with 3 speakers. All speakers work. I'm painting the speaker gaurds red right now. And we're repainting the side red and getting new decals and we just bought a new fluorescent light for the marque. Gonna make it look tip top.

Thanks the King. We found that switch. It's now on FREE PLAY!

Awesome. Let me know what ones you sell. I'm looking at a driving game now. Dirt Dash. It's pretty cheap and I can go pick it up. It's true it is addicting. But I only have room for 2 and a sit down driving game would be awesome!
