Quoted from yzfguy:

It's no fear. It has to be, because I have 425 bucks in PayPal waiting to click.

Fingers crossed...

Quoted from volkdrive:

Still hoping for Dirty Harry.
Sparky is Clark Griswolds pet name from his wife in Vacation series and car chase in Dirty Harry involves Chevys? Chevy Chase? There's a huge reach for you!

For the win...

Quoted from epthegeek:

There's spike "support" - you can put a sigma display in a spike game. There are no games colored yet for Spike, but only because they're not done yet, not because they couldn't be.

Correct...sort of, but you'll need to buy the cables you need to install it from a 3rd party vendor.

Quoted from Zora:

What is better - LCD or LED display?

LCD for me. I use scan or hi res for all my titles.

Quoted from PeterG:

Can I put a ColorDMD in GB and set it to green? Which version should you buy as I do not see a Spike version on the website?

You can but the cable to hook up has to be bought separately.. When I order for a game that's not ready I mention in the order which game the LCD is really for to get the right one.

Quoted from Dmod:

New Game of Thrones displays include a short adapter cable that plugs into the power distribution board at the lower right corner of the backbox to obtain 12V. The other side of the adapter connects to the standard SAM/WS cable kit.
This adapter is all that's needed to power newer LED and LCD displays with Chroma controller boards.
Older displays with Rev 1.3B boards need both 5V and 12V. Pinball Life and Mezel Mods both sell DC/DC converters for SPIKE games that convert 48V from the game to 5V/12V needed to power the ColorDMD and other game mods.

So can I buy an LCD for my gb and the cable used for got will work?

#2816 6 years ago
Quoted from Dmod:

Yes, because Ghostbusters uses the same power distribution board.
KISS and WWE have an earlier version of the power distribution board which does not support the 12V output. For these games a different power solution is needed to obtain 12V.

Thanks colordmd!!! Ordered late last night and items already shipping!! Every machine I own will now have a LCD in it. Best mod ever!!
