    I wired up the jumpers to the d-pad on my keyring. Hold a direction when you boot, and it works great. I wonder if you could do this for units with more than 4 ROMs by incorporating the action buttons too...

      Very smart idea to use the dpad that's already present on the device. Great work!

    After seeing this video it got me thinking about making a shelf diorama of an 80s arcade. Would you have any interest on showing how to usb power and rewire to have demo screen on rotate (possibly a hack to have a timer trigger a button?) Not all that familiar with this stuff but I cannot seem to locate the info needed.

      I'm not sure I'll have the time soon, but it's a neat idea. Which brand of toy were you considering for the shelf?

    So the My Arcade game you show with the two buttons included is actually a Bubble Bobble. Since Bubble Bobble is not among the 6 games chooseable for the Pac-Man unit, I suppose it belongs to a different set of games included in those units. Could you find out which games are in that set? It looks like the My Arcade unit uses NES games which of course have been around for a long time, while the Tiny Arcade units have their own, less capable hardware with newly programmed ports, which you can tell by the fact that the games have a lower resolution and framerate (does that hardware support sprites at all?) and don't look that arcade-accurate generally.

      I have not tried, but others have found jumper pads on some of the boards that appear to have similar functions. forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=153405.0

      There is a little more information on my blog page for this project. It's not step-by-step but there is an image of the buttons and how they were wired in. Hope this helps. gsnook.wordpress.com/2018/12/31/modding-the-my-arcade-dreamgear-6-pac-man-into-a-6-in-1-game-player/

      I've had that happen, too. There's an example over on my blog. gsnook.wordpress.com/2018/12/31/modding-the-my-arcade-dreamgear-6-pac-man-into-a-6-in-1-game-player/
      Sometimes you can trace back from the pad and expose another area to solder to.

    My Myarcade Pac-Man machine suddenly started showing just a white screen today- I got it this Christmas, play it every day with no problems, and I didn’t drop it or expose it to water or anything unusual. The sounds for the game begin if you press start, but still just a white screen. The power adapter also works on my Myarcade Street Fighter game- that machine has worked fine for two years. Any ideas? I filled out a form at their customer site- no answer yet. I’m upset 😢.

    • @mightystudiosvids
      @mightystudiosvids  Рік тому

      Sorry, no. I've never seen that symptom. If you have power & sound it might just be a bad screen or screen-connection, I suppose.
