Thanks for the video! I have had mine for a year or so and haven't played on it that much because there were some irritating episode with the stick and the buttons are weird. I think I will upgrade it using your tutorial and try to give it new life!
Just want to thank you for the wire cables and where it suppose to be like! I did this mod for the sanwa joysticks, for the buttons I made the hole 30mm and put in some seimitsu like the japanese neogeo candy cabs and covered the extra holes with lorenzo black plugs. Really happy with the result and feeling :)
Great video! Love my MVSX. Swapping the sticks and buttons was one of the first things I did. Makes a huge difference and takes the cab to the next level. There wasn't a lot of documentation for the process, so very cool for you to put this together for the community
Thanks very much for this video! It totally saved me. One of the original joysticks broke, and I had no idea what to do. Without your video, I would have been left with a dead unit. Thanks to your help, I've successfully replaced both joysticks! I'm even confident enough to replace the buttons and recently ordered them!
Very informative. I love my MVSX, but the joystick has been acting a little finicky every once in a while, (I'm still using the stock joystick from when the cab first released). Might be time to swap it out! Thanks for the video!
I swapped out all the buttons on mine and replaced them with Suzo Happ competition buttons. I used encoder boards wires to plug them in. Very easy. I bought the Sanwa JLF sticks that you can solder so I didn’t need to have all that unnecessary work that you made for yourself by using the 5 wire Sanwa sticks. I used the original wires.
Planning up upgrade my mvsx too. The stick is OK (perhaps a bit too loose for me) but I don't like the buttons. This video will make the process far easier. Thanks man 👍
Great video, thanks for explaining everything so clearly and all the camera angles. This is on my list to do, I also want to modify by connecting a raspberry pi but haven't seen any videos explaining in detail.
I learned to just pull the button wires, one of two things happen: 1. The glue gives, done. 2. The plastic socket comes off entirely. This is fine because you can now easily remove the glue and just slide the plastic socket back on its two board pins. There's no way to break it.
Hello, and thank you very much the video, I wanted to know please the size for the Zero Delay USB Encoder Jumper 12 inch or 18 inch ? Thank you very much
Lol what? Check your home Man! I didn’t hear anything in the video. UPDATE!: that’s one of my dogs. You can hear him walking across the room after the sound
@@neocvera lol aaah got it! btw thx for the video, I have some sanwa clones lying around and just upgraded the buttons on my mvsx, I'll try building the cable to use them!
There’s definitely room for a larger screen (up to 19”) but some work would need to be done. Im sure ps5 would be possible as long as you find a compatible usb control board. I have another set of videos where I make modifications that may fit into that.

Upgraded my buttons this morning. Your video gave me enough confidence to do it. The suzo happ buttons are really nice upgrade.
That’s awesome! I’m glad the video helped man! Enjoy your arcade!

Thanks for all the explanations and details on issues and how you resolved. Probably will save me a lot of heartache when I get the chance to do mine.
Thanks! It’s great knowing there’s still some use out there for these videos!

That really makes me happy man! This makes it worth doing! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment about your experience!

Great video. Incredibly detailed and highly informative. Better than other vids I've seen for this stuff.
Thanks, just wanted to share my experience. Appreciate it.
I just followed this and swapped out everything on mine tonight, but I kept the red balltops. Feels so much better. Thanks for the video!
Awesome!

@@neocvera defo. I love this mvsx unit now it’s been modded. It’s brilliant. HyloX and capcom installed. It’s great.
Thank you so much. I've been waiting for this tuto for a year. I have the same joystick. Let's go.
Did this day 1, had the buttons and sticks just waiting for my delivery. Same with the upcoming Ki cabinet all parts are here waiting ☺️
Planning up upgrade my mvsx too. The stick is OK (perhaps a bit too loose for me) but I don't like the buttons. This video will make the process far easier. Thanks man 👍
I completed this whole setup and this video was super helpful thanks for posted this!
Hey that’s what it’s all about! Awesome!
Thanks man! This really help me upgrading my MVXS too!
Awesome!
So what sticks, buttons, gate style was used on an original samurai shodown machine, I am trying to recreate the one i played on as a kid
Great video, thanks for explaining everything so clearly and all the camera angles. This is on my list to do, I also want to modify by connecting a raspberry pi but haven't seen any videos explaining in detail.
Nice, I'm considering going all in on this mod as well. Same buttons, sticks, plus adding more weight to the cabinet stand, HyloX USB mod.
The usb mod doesn't work on the second generation console.
@george._sir._gemini.175 are you sure? I hadn’t heard that at all.
Hello. Thanks for the video, it will help alot. Just one question, it is possible to get the joystick cables separatly ? Thanks ;)
Yeah you just need to know what joystick you have and I’m sure the cables are available for it.
@@neocvera Found them where you bought the Jumper Wires for buttons. Thanks a lot again for this cool video and your help. The MVSX is a blast !

Hello, and thank you very much the video, I wanted to know please the size for the Zero Delay USB Encoder Jumper 12 inch or 18 inch ? Thank you very much
I’m pretty sure the description links to the 17” - check out my description.
@@neocvera thank you very much for your answer but I was asking you the size you took for the zero delay usb encoder jumper Thank you
They don’t need to be long, I got the 12” 12pk
Thank your for video. Could you please post a link to where you got the double 4 wave 3 cable?
It actually comes with the stick - link is in the description
Was there a lot of clearance for the HAPP buttons? Would the short stem HAPP be better maybe?
Yeah no issues with space for buttons.
@@neocvera Thanks for letting me know. One more question, did you need the 18 inch wires or were the 12 inch wires long enough for all connections?
@@Aaron-vr7dv yeah 12” is plenty
@@neocvera thank you so much, this video helped me feel a lot more prepared for this
@@Aaron-vr7dv awesome man! Enjoy the project!
My original MVSX buttons are screwed on so tight, impossible to unscrew without damaging them.
Any hints?
Mine didn’t come with the screw type but they sell “arcade button nut wrench”. Do a search on that - should help you out and they’re pretty cheap.
I got the IL PSL buttons, supposedly they originally made the happ buttons? I got the same setup and going to mod mine
Nice! Good luck!
Yes, the iL PSL buttons are the original Happ buttons
Thanks for the detailed video!!!
Thanks for checking it out!
Do you need to replace the harness for the buttons??can’t you use the same ones?
You could, it was just easier to start fresh also not worrying about messing up a wire was important to me.
@@neocvera oh ok thanks I’m looking to do this on mine
Super simple man! Enjoy it!
what was that sound at 11:05, scared the hell out of me lmao, thought there was someone in my room
Lol what? Check your home
Man! I didn’t hear anything in the video.
UPDATE!: that’s one of my dogs. You can hear him walking across the room after the sound
@@neocvera lol aaah got it! btw thx for the video, I have some sanwa clones lying around and just upgraded the buttons on my mvsx, I'll try building the cable to use them!
that transparent neogeo sticker om de control panel :D where did you get that?
Good eye! They come with the NEOGEO mini.
What are the correct location for the wires for player two joystick?
Will seimitsu buttons fit the controller board?
Thanks
I don’t see why not.
Can u put bigger better monitor also I wann hook up my ps5 on it is it possible
There’s definitely room for a larger screen (up to 19”) but some work would need to be done. Im sure ps5 would be possible as long as you find a compatible usb control board. I have another set of videos where I make modifications that may fit into that.
@@neocvera ok thanks will look
Can you make a audio upgrade vid.
If I ever get around to doing one - I’ll be sure to document the experience!
@@neocvera awesome 👍
@@neocvera Also would love to see an audio upgrade video!
where is the video of replacing the control panel with the correct 4 button joystick and raising the panel so your hand dont get smashed in the sides
Sounds like a nice project for you! Please make a video!
@@neocvera i sold mine the same day i got it, after hours tired of my hand getting smashed i boxed it up & ebayed it
Lol so why are you looking for the video?
@@neocvera i seen a video where a new version is coming out and if the problems are fixed i would get another
A new version would be cool!
Does anyone on here have an AES or MVS too? Is the game play the same?
Oh it’s most definitely not 100% the same since it is emulation after all. There’s a great video by RetroRGB where he compares and he was impressed.
