I always found the Mega Play and Mega Tech systems incredibly interesting because of how the Mega Drive was initially heavily marketed as "bringing the arcade to your home" and now they were bringing the home console games to the arcade, great to see one in beautiful nick.
Quality work by the entire team. Special mention to Holly for resurrecting the monitors.
Congratulations to the entire team on this genuinely EPIC restoration. A tribute to you all.
Amen
Not many people will notice the new kick plate and rubber but I bet a lot more would notice the scuffed and tired ones. Nice job all!
Well said.
Unfortunately, that's how it usually goes.
You should get a copy of the restoration on a memory stick, along with stills of the process, get the team together to sign a photo, and fix it in the back of the machine for future generations to see.
I love that idea thank you
flash memory has a pretty limited data retention, especially when never getting powered on to let it error correct flipped bits. Unlike other forms of storing data like burned rom chips or fram. It can get enough bits flipped to not read in a matter of ten years.
Optical media is the best for longevity if it's a high quality sandwiched design (foil layer encapsulated by the plastic).
VHS would probably be most helpful for anyone trying to restore this thing a second time. ;)
@@RMCRetro I vote for DVD-ROM
They still use VHS in mass storage
If I ever get to visit you and the cave, the first thing I'm going to say is "oooo! What a lovely bit of black rubber there!"
In 1000 years when historians are trying to pinpoint exactly when peak RUclips was, I think this video could be a contender
When the world gets me down it's nice to think of people like Neil and his team following their passions and spreading happiness.
Fantastic work. I'm from Montreal, except for a layover at Heathrow, I've never been to the UK. I've caught myself looking at where is Stroud on Google Maps. I might have to try to sell this trip to my wife, tell her about the beautiful castles and manors.😆
Stroud's a lovely place to visit, it's got plenty to offer
Amazing ...really liked the system and how it was handled...congratulations !
Having done a bit of arcade restoration myself I can genuinely say that this is a superb job. Congratulations and well done to everyone involved. Fabulous!
Thank you that's really kind
This is a great preservation video! You really care about these classic arcades and computers and it makes me happy :)
Many thanks for the detail you and your friends/team puts into these videos, especially for us here in the states. Wish I could visit the cave, but these are the next best thing.
I cannot believe it looks so beautiful.. really excellent job on everyone involved in this project.
Absolutely stunning, great job guys!
Beautiful! And highly rewarding to follow you on this journey.
Amazing job by everyone, and what a legend Holly is!
It takes a special type of woman to be so happy in what can be, all too often, a man's world. She's got some balls that one.
Absolutely fantastic. Your combined skills are brilliant. Love your videos...
fantastic work team, love the finished cabinet. You can tell how much passion for everything you do at the cave.
Well done all involved! Such attention to detail is very pleasing to me. Excellent job! It looks amazing guys.
Great Work Team. Thanks for the video Neil! Really love the channel, so happy I found you! :)
Wonderful job and attention for details, great team work. 🎉🎉🎉
Looks really REALLY good! Superb restoration.
Fantastic restoration job on this system! Amazing! Keep it up!❤
Amazing work by everyone involved!
Excellent work. Always a joy to see old tech brought back to life.
Beautiful work team! amazing job
This has been a great video series, I've really enjoyed seeing all of the skills and hard work that have gone into the restoration.
Fantastic restoration, great teamwork!
Excellent technical depth in here!
Amazing work everyone! It looks fantastic!
You all did a wonderful job ! Nice group effort! Another piece of history saved 😊
That cabinet looks immaculate. Great job!
i have loved watching this rebuild! ty for all the hard work! it shows and its amazing! 🙌🏻👏🏻
That looks magnificent, congrats!!
If i ever make holiday in england, i think my first visit would be your site. Nice video!
Excellent work! Well done to everyone involved!
What an incredible achievement! Considering where it came from, this is truly amazing. Well done team!
Great work from all the team. Cheers.
Great video again :)
Thanks for taking the time to make it and share the adventure
Absolutely a thing of beauty! Well done!!
Neil, please use a respirator mask next time you cut MDF! The dust is pretty toxic.
Thank you! I absolutely will
great restoration! loved watching the progress!
Great work, the whole team has done a marvellous job on restoration, long may it be enjoyed.
Everyone's done a great job at getting this cab look immaculate, especially considering how it originally looked. I'm particularly impressed at how Holly repaired that driver board for the CRT in last episode. Repairing those traces and she made it look perfect. Small thing I know, but I'm easily pleased.
Great restoration, guys! So much fun to see this cab come back to its former glory!
Great set of 4 vids Neil. Enjoyed everyone and the results are stunning. Look forward to popping down and trying it out in person
Well done to everyone that put the hard work in
This was a great series to follow, keep up the great work!
What a great restoration, glad to see it working again.
Thank you so much for giving this arcade a second life!
You’re welcome and thank you for taking the time to watch
It looks fantastic. Very impressive.
Great teamwork! You're champions of conservation.
Outstanding. Well done everyone.
A beautiful restoration. Well done to all!
A great restoration. You clearly enjoy the process and it was great to watch
Amazing job! That machine is awesome
Congrats to your and your team on a fantastic restoration, Neil! Another Mega-Tech lives on!
To a Mega Drive kid like myself growing up, owning one of these (or one of the rare Mega Drive PC', either one) would have been like the holy grail to me in the 90's!
Fantastic restoration. Also great to be amongst the first to try it. If anyone is on the fence about visiting the cave. I'd highly recommend it. We all had a fantastic day.
What an incredible effort by the whole team, with incredible results!
Finally got around to watching this! Excellent stuff. Looking forward to visiting the cave again so I can have a go!
Fantastic video! thanks for that!
Amazing work has been done. :)
Loved to play on this arcade cab back in the day at my swimming baths, you have done a super amazing job on this, looks fresh from the factory 👍👍
Great Restoration, enjoyed all the episodes.
Beautiful work.
You guys really brought this back from the dead, nicely done.
Fantastic restoration!
incredible work!
This was a really fun project to follow, I hope to see more content like this! :)
The lack of *Genuine Sanwa Arcade Parts* disturbs me greatly
Amazing work!
well done to everyone involved in the restoration, this was a great watch.
Beautifully done. Truly something to be proud of.
Congratulations to the entire team
An absolutely amazing refurbishment of a piece of history maybe a lot of people didn't even knew existed before seeing your videos (One of them people being me!). Well done to all involved.
I think Holly might actually be magical judging by that work
I followed this, and I am truly stunned and proud of ALL of you. This is a wonderful addition to the museum.
Now, to my other point. You guys need a museum cat. Imagine a cat walking across your Gauntlet cabinet. 🐈
Thanks! My old cat Gizmo did come the to museum a couple of times, sadly no longer with us. Maybe one day we’ll get another!
Awwww! Little Gizmo must have been a sweetheart. Well, you can come take my Puddin, he's a pain in the as, I'Im fed up with him 😂@@RMCRetro
Great restoration, amazing!
Looks amazing
@9:30 congrats on not also cutting a cave table in half making doors, I would've totally done that
Great series and an excellent restoration - thanks.
Looks amazing and well done to the team! I remember playing on one of these back in the day, along with the Nintendo variant.
Great job all!! The vinyl looked great in person, shame it came away at the edges.
So much love fot this system, great work!
I think anyone who comes out should make a point to comment on the kickplate and rubber lol. Those vents are great for sure. A nice job all around.
That vinyl application really brought back some memories for me. I'd love for you to hunt down and do a restoration of a Sega Traveller. It's in no way a good game but I promise you will have never played a game quite like it.
Wonderful work everyone! I wish I could visit The Cave and have some time playing it and the other games that are available!
This has been a fantastic journey to follow. I want to visit you just to try it out!
Fantastic work. Would love to jump over the pond and pay a visit.
Could watch these trash to treasures all day..looking forward to the next project, mega tech looks great.
Great work! 👍
Cool! Ultimate Restoration!
Truly a well love machine now, great work everyone!
Great restoration, beau projet! Merci
I absolutely love this restoration series :) couldn’t wait for final reveal.
Take a bow, all of you. What a fantastic restoration by all the team, some serious skills on show 👍. Amazing to see what happens when everyone pulls together 👍👍👍.
Such a fantastic restoration and a great series of videos. I agree with keeping some of the patina, its like the Japanese style Wabi-sabi, perfect in its imperfection. The whole team provided great work on this one.
what a sight to behold... one of the most goreous cabinettes i,ve seen... looks so cool with those dual screens
Amazing result
what a lovely restoration! I like Holly's isolation transformer/power limiter. I call mine "the Bang Preventer" :)
Aka the cockblocker 9001.
