Vewlix Diamond Orange with Taito Type X3 TTX3
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Here is the overview of my Vewlix Diamond Orange arcade machine that is sporting a Taito Type X3 system inside. This video was recorded way back before Long Island Retro so some minor things have changed such as the Artax Multi which is now v4.1, but overall it should give you a good feel as to what the machine is like. Feel free to drop comments and questions below.

When I was in High School, I always wanted to outfit a Vewlix with a Neo Geo Motherboard...
Being a 15Khz guy myself, I can certainly say that a Vewlix with this custom software is certainly a thing to envy. Very nice setup and great games.
Yeah, I never really thought much of "modern" gaming but there are some really great options available to play here. PC based hardware makes this pretty easy and unlocks a lot of options.
Ok your setup convinced me, I'm now looking getting this.
Nice to see you back, alive and kicking. Would love a Vewlix, great video as always.
Still here, it’s just been harder with schedule and the baby.
Nice! I used to own a Chewlix years ago which worked and felt great. Put a 360 in it. They're really easy to throw different boards, PCs and/or consoles inside.
If you're hard pressed for space. I'd recommend looking for "Mega Bezel Hyperspace Madness shaders" for Retroarch for a pretty decent CRT-esque experience on a flat panel.
Nice. A lot of people call the Orange Diamond Vewlix the SFV cab but it was actually released years before SFV type arcade ever came out in Japan. The control panel you have is the original and stock panel for the orange diamond. Also SFV type arcade was released on TTX4 and does NOT use fast io, it uses a newer IO called USB IO.
Looks pristine!…Very nice pickup; I haven’t paid much attention to the styling of modern cabs when I’ve seen them in the wild but it’s a very slick unit and I kind of want one myself now lol!
Ps - impressed that you’re still even able to churn out YT content with the little’un on the scene 👍🏼🙂
That power strip is pretty dope, never even knew something like that existed
The best game on the Taito Type X2, X3, X4 systems by far is The King Of Fighters XIII Climax. Probably the best fighting game of all time.
I bought a Vewlix L AMI from Hadouken Arcade last month and I'm currently planning/gaining funds for all the stuff I want to do with it. First time working on an arcade machine, but I have a buddy from work that's going to help me with it. Great video!
Congrats on the purchase! Hope all goes well for you. I'm sure youll pick up a lot of info working on it. That's sometimes half the fun.
I played on a Viewlix styled cabinet for the first time recently, and they are really comfy to play on. Your Type X3's a beaut'!
nice to see this added to your collection, never played those games but they look great n fun
Great tips and info , thanks, I feel that baby tiredness, will be looking into the Taito X3. Liking the unscripted videos , sending good vibes
Glad you like it man, thanks for the feedback!
Nice pick up. I loved the Type X3 hardware.
It’s my first dabble into PC based hardware. It was fun seeing where “modern” arcade gaming has landed and learning about the swapping of parts and what not.
@@ScarletSprites take your time with it and you will have a blast.
lovely looking thing, probably my favourite 'modern' cab
Beauty in the basic, but they get the job done too.
Like u Joe, I like the late 80's,90's arcade games .Have an Astro,Blast,Ecellenna and a Noami ,but I had the itch to play more modern arcade game like SF4 ect. And picked up a Namco Noir 12 months ago... Absolutely love it ...1080p Looks fantastic 👌... only thing, I had to strip it down into pieces to get it up stairs thou..... What a mission😏
Your collection of cabs is ridiculous! Sheesh. Congrats.
Nice pickup and video, great cab. I remember playing on these at a game centre in Osaka a few years back. Always fancied to get one as they are quite a bit smaller due to not having a crt. Still yet to get a cab but I’d love at least one sit down in the future.
man, don't feel bad for getting a modern lcd arcade. it's just the evolution of the arcade. it's not like you tore out a crt and board to replace it with modern hardware. you have so many original cabs that are just awesome. one hd modern setup is cool and we all have our dirty little secrets hahaha
I own an L and Diamond Blue.
They are really good cabs, I love my noirs more for HD cabs, but these really are compact and well made cabinets.
Great video btw. I may want 1 more, but can’t decide between the D orange, D black or the FC….. 😅
Dude I dig your channel so much. Hope to have a home arcade some day.
Dude that looks fantastic and love how the newer games look on a wide screen LCD.
There is a really cool moment of recognizing that this is where SNK has landed. One last Samurai Shodown (maybe?).
I have been frost HING st the mouth for this vewlix video and you delivered! The cab looks great and excellent condition it looks awesome 🤩 I find myself always going back to play street fighter 4 over street fighter 5it hits harder for me
The Vewlix cabinets are definitely the best looking modern cabs, I have a couple of Sega lindberghs for my JVS games which look a bit too much like johnny number 5 but I am still fond of them 🤣, Since they come with JVS IO I use that with the TTX3 and it works fine for me, so many amazing fighters on that multi, and I also do enjoy playing a bit of Wangan midnight or Initial D using a xbox controller ! it feels a bit weird at first but its still a bit of fun !
I like the Sega cabs in general. You’ll never get me to say a bad word about them.
I need to find a cheap wheel for some of these games though too!
I've never seen an orange Vewlix before, not sure these are even on the Arcade Otaku wiki, looks super nice though. I'd love to get one of these to run modern arcade games and consoles, and get the added benefit of not having to worry about expensive/unobtainable parts failures, CRT based machines I'm looking at you...
I never seen this before. It looks good
Congrats man!
Beautiful cab, that thing is MINT!
Yeah, far better condition than I expected it to be in that's for sure. The other candy cabs were pretty filthy and needed a lot more cleaning when I got them.
Looks like a lovely setup, I want one!
Congrats for buying this ! Amazing video as always , Joe ✌🏻👏🏻
Thanks man, good to hear from you! Hope all is going well.
Awesome pickup 👍👍
Thanks man, it’s certainly the last of the machines for 2022 that is for damn certain.
Hi I have the same setup and bought the monitor bracket and pre ordered the new LG 32GS95UE-B
Great video
Oh that does it!!! I'm coming over to Scarlet's place to play all these awesome units you have in you pad bro. Everything looks so cool. I'll bring over a matching "His and Her Garfield Coffee Mug set" to show appreciation for what you do do for the community. 8^)
Anthony...
Really sweet setup!
Thanks man!
Nice video love vewlix content! Subbed!
As always man, great video 👍🏼
That thing looks pretty minty man, the graphics look great
Great new cabinet, and I love the WIFI power splitter... I could do with one of those!
Really comes in handy!
i have a sega lindbergh in pretty nice condition if your interested and close to maryland/pennsylvania. also have a few other arcade related things laying about naomi system, some fighting game pcs etc.
Thanks man. I’ve dialed it back a bit since there are so many projects to work on but appreciate you reaching out.
The pumpkin orange looks really good.
Yeah, I've always been a sucker for orange.
Been waiting for this video!
Thanks man, it’s been on the shelf a while.
@@ScarletSprites no rush at all man… I know the struggle all to well.
Well damn 🔥
Well shit dude. This might be the reason to pull the trigger on a viewlix for myself. I knew there were multi game options, but that looks slick as hell
It's pretty sweet. Its really not a lot different than a PC and PC gaming with arcade titles, but its the form factor that really brings it all home. I really like Virtua Fighter 5 eSports. Pretty much anything on Tecknoparrot you can get running.
Yeah how big can you make the teknoparrot file? I know there's a pretty big list of games that emulator can run.
I'm surprised that the Vewlix control panel is only for 1 player. It's so wide. In the other countries that could easily be wide enough for 2 players.
Same as other candies really where they vary from 1L to 2L. Depends on what the purpose of the cabinet was or if it were linked to another machine. I could get a 2P panel but realistically it wouldn’t see that much use.
I wish I had some arcade cabinets in my apartment, but I don't have any room.
I lived in a one bedroom for years. I get it man.
Awesome cab brother. I’ll get there soon!!!
It's a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the trip each day.
Vewlix ! Dang i want one of these so freaking bad. came across a chewlix once, but I'd rather have the real thing. gret vid !
Thanks man! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a Chewlix in person but I’ve heard that some of them are pretty decent.
Have this exact set up, but with custom two-player panel. Can play versus on most games. Definitely should go LED strip behind marquee. Looks awesome!
Pretty sure I peeped a noctua in there 😉 Great looking cab!
Yeah I swapped the fans out on the TTX3. They were loud and dirty. Ended up stripping the entire case and washing it with Dawn. It smells much less than it did.
I change my mind on these cabs over and over…
I think once 32 inch OLED’s are a thing, I might get involved.
Maybe…
I just don’t know, Joe!!!
I have CRT cabs for CRT era stuff, and I have a big comfy chair and a really nice customised stick I can play the larger format more modern games on.
… but then I love a cab and the subjective experience of sitting down at one is awesome to me… and these things look beautiful.
I really can’t settle on an opinion.
Would be great to see a follow up, once you’ve had it for six months. Long term opinions. Does it actually get used as much as you’d thought etc?
Nice vid as ever, dude.
Yeah, I was pretty much where you are. I just really liked the idea of getting "new" SNK games on modern arcade hardware. Everything else is a huge bonus, including VF5.
Sweet purchase bro!
Thanks man!
@@ScarletSprites Would be great for fighters & horizontal shmups etc.
What impressed me most was it’s near immaculate condition though!
If you only have one “modern” cab in your arcade, then this is a great one to have!
Keep making great content!
Maybe it's time to re-organize your videos by Playlist? I wanted to watch some specific videos you made but noticed you didn't make a Playlist for them.
I don't understand what use these LCD monitor based cabinets may have for home use, I can see these having a purpose while on location inside an arcade center eating quarters from customers, but for personal use these things are no different than any TFT screen paired with any good USB arcade stick, IMO arcade is RGB CRT + jamma boards.
You’re right, it’s garbage and it’s going back! I honestly kind of felt like you did for a long time. In some ways the same argument could be made for CRT based cabs as well; just get a Supergun. For me I think there is just a mood or charm to actual cabs, not to mention that it’s the progression of a hobby and this is it’s current state. I enjoyed learning about the TTX3, Fast I/O and a more simplified hardware setup. From a strictly logical standpoint you might be correct, but it’s the intangibles that make it great.
There's something to be said about playing modern games on a sturdy solid piece made specifically to sit down and play on. You could use fight sticks nothing wrong with that but being able to sit down and experience a game on a purpose built cabinet is different experience all together.
Being LCD and widescreen means alot of flexibility with modern hardware or PC or consoles. Game remasters, and special ports of classic games too. I found it enjoyable to think about what newer games may translate to an arcade cabinet that otherwise wouldn't be on one as well.
Can get big gauge extension Cable
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Does anyone know where the bios that allows any video card to be used? The only link I could find has a dead google drive link. 😢
I know how ya feel joe! HAHA Great video, love the unscripted format. That vewlix looks awesome. Is it emulation then since it's on a PC or were these games developed on that PC to run native? Those are modern Arcade games so I'm absolutely clueless on those. Just curious. The cab looks awesome, I would love one of those in the house. Very cool looking. Hope you get all the sleep ya need and all the projects you want to get done. Don't worry about being tired, you get used to it after a year or so!
Yeah, most of the modern games were designed to run on PC based hardware so its almost irrelevant what PC theyre running on. Variations of PC based hardware are, for the most part, variances in GPU and processors. There are of course some I/O changes as well but they all mostly work interchangeably. There are some titles included on the multi that I hid that are actually being emulated (Konami, Midway, and some other games).
I was able to add a new rom! !
I was able to add mame and naomi's software.
Great video im building my own out of wood tell me is the monitor at a angle or is it straight up i cant tell cause of the shape of the frame thanx
It leans back slightly, maybe 80 or 85 degrees.
Hey Joe, Great video! Currently contemplating a Viewlix purchase and was curious why you chose the Type x3 vs 4. My understanding is the upcoming SF6 Arcade release will be using x4’s USB I/O and if getting an x3 will cause a problem or it’s just a matter of a future multi image update. Thanks!
I bought the X3 (and the Vewlix) before SF6 was even a consideration. That said, the multi image I wanted to use was built for the X3 and it does have the fast I/O. I can’t recall what I showed in the video but I was able to upgrade both the processor and graphics card on the X3 as well. In short, at the time it was the unit that was best supported by the community.
Got it, thanks Joe
Gotta pick up a second for Vs play when Neo gets older!
Oh god. That might seal his fate on whether he can go to college or not.
I have one Chinese, put a PC and have steam and arcade emus.
Nice set up Joe, I'm an old school crt SF2 player and have 16 candy cabs, I'm also diving into a Viewlix from Game Saru in December. Would you be able to Clone a Hard Drive for me if I sent it to you? I'm not tech savvy and would really like that Artax front end. All I'm really after is SFIV, SFV, Sam Sho, Tekken 7 & Possibly VF5/6
Any direction or links on how exactly you put new GPU/CPU in the Type X? Yes I am a PC guy, I’d be fine with following any instructions if you could link me to a reliable source. I have the X4, and 3, but looking to put a GTX 1070 as well as 4th Gen i7 Inside my unit.
Warm Regards.
The processor is a drop in but for graphics cards you need to update the bios to have complete freedom. If you search for TTX3 bios on Arcade-Projects forum there is a thread for it and the bios you need.
@@ScarletSprites copy! Thank you for the response.
6 minutes in and I already want one
Haha, it’s pretty cool. The TTX3 multi will run/emulate a lot of titles and the LCD seems less intimidating to people than a CRT. If these weren’t getting so pricey they’d be the ideal cabinet.
@@ScarletSprites there are always a few of them in the arcades around town. They’re fun to play on for sure.
I would go overboard and replace the monitor with a 4k Oled :D
I think LG is coming out with a 32" OLED soon. A lot of people have said that in comment sections actually!
@@ScarletSprites As emperor Palatine would say "Do it!"
Hey I was wondering does your harness already have buttons 7 and 8 wired or would you have to add those if you switch your cp for sfv mainly.
Did you change out the fans? I read that they were loud.
I’ve been meaning to but haven’t. One of them isn’t easy to reach without taking the machine apart. They are indeed VERY loud.
@@ScarletSprites Ok noted. thanks!
You definitely won the Vewlix lottery with that one. Seems like a lot of the examples I see for sale are absolutely trashed. Mine took quite a bit of cleaning before it was presentable. How's the fan noise on the Orange? Is it anywhere near as obnoxious as it is on the F?
The fans are definitely loud. I’m considering replacing them but haven’t looked into specs yet. I may try and do that if I attempt a monitor swap.
I was thinking of putting one of my computers that have a decent video card into one of these machines. Between this and an Astro City but I since these are lighter...
Hello, what did you notice in the commands regarding the response time with these new screens, since here we are more used to analog signals with CRT screens
GndZero (Matt) is the man!
I have a Vewlix F and a Taito Type X3 with this same multi. I want to play other retro games with pc emulation. What would I need to be able to switch back and forth? A brook fighting board? Also, would I be able to connect an external drive with hyperspin on it to the TTX3 and just change the boot priority in the bios or would I need to buy a raspberry pi/a separate pc?
Good evening I would like to know how to add MAME ROM with typex3.Also, what controller do you use in Afterburner Climax?
I’ve never added any new games. From my understanding it’s not easy to do and requires a lot of setup. There is a thread on how to build a front end that auto launches on Arcade-Projects however.
For Afterburner I’ve only used an Xbox controller. I’m sure there are better options though.
Congrats for the vídeo, what monitor did you use?
It’s the stock from Taito. I may replace this winter with a 1440p LG.
@@ScarletSprites thanks for answering
what caster wheels di you use?
I’d have to check. I have a few sets in the basement from the wood cabs rolling in and these were a fit. Definitely shorter smaller wheels than what I use on the Midways.
Sweet cab. So the flash you did just put all the modern tiato x3 games on it?
Yeah, it’s a hard drive image that already had everything preinstalled.
Looks great! Did you get a single player on purpose? Or does this serve it's purpose?
I think most (maybe all?) are stock single player panels. I really wasn’t concerned about it and assumed I’d need to replace the control panel anyways. As it turned out the control panel was in great shape and my idiot friends don’t deserve to play on this thing.
Samsho is a great game but, it doesn't run as well on the switch. SNK heroines doesn't run well on the switch either. You already know. But I don't regret getting a physical copy of it for the switch
It’s the only modern system I have so it’s Switch or bust unfortunately. I’ve had to turn down some recent arcade-styled game reviews for PS5 because I don’t have one. I need to find someone local I can borrow one from once in a while. I don’t think I can justify buying one as I’d never play it outside of rare circumstances.
@@ScarletSprites There's nothing interesting for the ps5. So I don't blame you. But I can understand why you are not interested in modern gaming. Most of my money has been spent on retro games and retro HD collections for the past few years.
Can we get a video on that badass turtle aquarium?
You’re not the first person to ask that. Yertle is my boy. I’ve had him since 4th grade. The video would totally tank and get six views but it’s not out of the question. I love that guy so much.
@@ScarletSprites OK now I insist. We need this video. That’s amazing he’s that old.
Yertle the Turtle. Oh man.
You basically are a clone of me. I have kasa wifi plugs, ran 80 more amp in the panel, etc. And now you are at the vewlix stage. Do youself a favor and run the 2013 killer instinct in there.
👀👀👀
Im tall and prefer taller, it's my machines and if others thinks it's too high too bad, get your own. :)
Haha, SAME. Kids? Get a chair.
After a recent trip to an arcade, I can agree. These things ain't exactly the coziest for taller people.
