Multi-vector Blue Elf PCB?

Postby jasonec » Sun Sep 14, 2014 8:52 pm

I've seen pics of this online and a couple of posts on other forums suggest it exists, but I can't find any place selling them online.

Apparently, it's Blue Elf hardware, but loaded with the vector games:
Multi Vector Game List
1 Asteroids
2 Asteroids Deluxe
3 Battlezone
4 Black Widow
5 Eliminator
6 Gravitar
7 Lunar Lander
8 Major Havoc
9 Quantum
10 Red Baron
11 Rip Off
12 Space Dual
13 Space Fury
14 Star Hawk
15 Star Trek
16 Star Wars
17 Tac/Scan
18 Tempest
19 Tempest Tubes
20 The Empire Strikes Back
21 War of the Worlds

If anyone has a link to a place that sells them, or has one themselves for sale, let me know!

That board looks awesome. Does it work on a regular monitor?

Agreed! That looks friggin' awesome!
The second screen capture on the site that shows the menu looks like it's on a raster monitor but would like to know if it's vector or raster.

Thx! Does anyone have any experience with one of these boards?
I'm assuming from the hardware and JAMMA connection that it's basically raster CGA/VGA output....

I tried it out in a cabinet with a lcd monitor and the quality was good. I only had a joystick and a few buttons to try it out. It worked fine but they say it's best to use a trackball or spinner for most of the games. It was for one of too many projects I had on the go. If it doesn't sell I'll make a mini multi-vector out of it someday.

I know this thread is a couple of years old, I found this site by accident the other day and they are selling a multivector board. Looks interesting for those of us who are challenged for space in the gameroom and want to play a few of these titles.

Just curious if you ever pursued this.
