Do not remove chips identified as SRAM or MCU. Video PCB Preparation Remove only the chips identified in the S2ROZ and SPRITES sections of the compatible Video PCB. Do not remove the KEYCUS protection device, SRAM, or USER2 chips. Jumper and DIP-Switch Settings The jumpers on both donor boards must be configured exactly as shown in the installation guide. Set all main-board DIP switches to OFF before the initial startup. Individual settings may be adjusted later for supported games. Ground-Plate Clearance Inspect the original main PCB for vertically mounted metal ground plates. Any plate that could contact the underside of the multigame PCB must be carefully removed or repositioned before installation. Contact between a ground plate and the multigame PCB can damage the kit. Multigame Board Installation Separate the original main PCB and Video PCB before installing the two multigame boards. Remove each multigame PCB vertically from its protective antistatic foam to avoid bending the underside pins. Carefully align every multigame-board pin with the corresponding donor PCB socket before applying pressure. Install the larger multigame PCB on the original main PCB. Install the smaller multigame PCB on the compatible Video PCB. Reassemble the System 2 board stack after both multigame PCBs are securely installed. Connect the linking cable between the two multigame PCBs. Connect the rotary-selector cable to the larger multigame PCB. Programming the Memory Modules The kit uses ten removable memory modules: seven on the main-board multigame PCB and three on the Video PCB multigame board. Each module must be programmed individually with the included adapter and a ProMan/TL86_Plus programmer. The modules use 128-Mbit, 256-Mbit, and 512-Mbit capacities. Follow the installation guide when selecting the device size in the programmer software. Some module sizes require manual configuration. Return every programmed module to its designated position and align the white orientation triangle on the module with the matching triangle on the multigame PCB. Do not interchange module positions. Selecting a Game After the donor boards, multigame PCBs, cables, and programmed memory modules are correctly installed, choose the desired configuration with the rotary selector and power on the Namco System 2 hardware. Change the rotary-selector position only while the system is powered off. Important Before Ordering Not every Namco System 2 main PCB and Video PCB combination is compatible. Compare your Video PCB with the board pictured in the installation guide. This installation requires board-stack disassembly, ROM removal, jumper configuration, memory programming, and careful multigame-board alignment. Use an experienced arcade technician when you are not comfortable performing board-level installation work. Disconnect power and discharge static before handling the original boards, multigame PCBs, or memory modules. Only use game data that you are legally entitled to possess and operate.

Darksoft Neo Geo MVS Multigame Kit Overview The Darksoft Neo Geo MVS Multigame Kit is designed for compatible original SNK Neo Geo MVS arcade hardware. The cartridge combines flash memory and DDR memory to hold up to three games at the same time, effectively giving a single-slot MVS motherboard three virtual game slots. Games are stored on a compatible microSD card and managed through the cartridge’s on-screen menu. The cartridge remembers the games assigned to Slots 1, 2, and 3 after power is removed, so your selected titles remain available the next time the MVS system starts. View/Download Neo Geo MVS Install Guide (PDF) Flat Rate U.S. Shipping: $35.99. Insurance included. Ships with Signature Required. Ship two Darksoft Multigame Kits for the same shipping price. Compatibility and Requirements Designed for compatible original SNK Neo Geo MVS arcade motherboards. Supports single-slot and multi-slot MVS configurations. This product is not the Neo Geo AES console version. Confirm that the MVS motherboard operates correctly with a standard cartridge before installing the multigame cartridge. Inspect and clean the MVS cartridge-slot contacts when necessary. Check the motherboard backup battery if game settings and high-score information are not being retained correctly. A compatible microSD card is required and is not included. Key Features Three Simultaneous Game Slots Load up to three games into Slots 1, 2, and 3. A single-slot MVS motherboard can operate with three virtual game slots through one Darksoft cartridge. Persistent Game Assignments The cartridge records which games are assigned to each slot. Those assignments remain after the system is powered off and are restored during the next startup. Original Neo Geo Game Support The cartridge supports original Neo Geo game data without requiring modifications. Some protected bootleg or modified versions may require patches or may not be supported. Game List and Thumbnail Menus Browse available titles as a text list or with thumbnail images. Games can be added to or removed from any of the three virtual slots through the on-screen menu. QuickLaunch Highlight a game and use QuickLaunch to load it into Slot 1 and start it directly. Games already assigned to Slots 2 and 3 remain unchanged. Firmware and Menu Updates Firmware and menu updates can be installed from the microSD card using the update-folder structure described in the manual. Cartridge and microSD Installation Power off the MVS motherboard before inserting or removing the cartridge. Discharge static by touching a grounded surface before handling the cartridge. Install the cartridge in the same orientation as a standard MVS cartridge, following the white orientation triangle. Prepare the microSD card with a folder named games. Place only compatible game, homebrew, or personally developed files that you are legally entitled to use inside the games folder. Insert the microSD card before powering on the system. Power off the system before inserting or removing the microSD card. Do not open or tamper with the cartridge enclosure or internal PCB. Menu and Game Selection Starting the Menu or a Loaded Game During the startup countdown, use Player 1 Start to open the menu or use the appropriate action button to start the game assigned to Slot 1, Slot 2, or Slot 3. Applying Slot Changes Adding or removing games does not update the cartridge immediately. Use the menu’s exit-and-program function to save the slot changes and write any newly selected game data. In-Game Hotkeys Hold Player 1 Start and Up for approximately three seconds to return to the cartridge menu. Hold Player 1 Start and Left or Right for approximately three seconds to move to the previous or next loaded game slot. Hotkeys can be disabled through the menu configuration when player access should be restricted. MVS Settings and High-Score Storage Game SoftDIP Settings On MVS hardware, the cartridge menu can display and adjust supported original game settings such as difficulty, number of players, demo sounds, and language after the game has been run at least once. Region and Operating Mode The system-configuration menu can select USA, Europe, or Japan region operation and can run supported titles in MVS or AES software mode. This does not convert the physical MVS cartridge into an AES-console cartridge. Backup-RAM Management Neo Geo MVS backup RAM stores settings, high scores, and related data for a limited number of games. The cartridge can back up displaced game data to the microSD card and restore it later through the menu. Cartridge Diagnostics The menu includes cartridge diagnostics and an information screen for checking the installed firmware version and the number of available games detected on the microSD card. Important Before Use Power off the MVS hardware before inserting or removing either the cartridge or the microSD card. Do not manually edit the SLOT1, SLOT2, or SLOT3 files created on the microSD card. Complete all game changes through the cartridge menu and its exit-and-program option. Use only compatible files that you are legally entitled to possess and operate. Review the complete manual before performing firmware updates or changing the microSD folder structure.
