Retro Dev Blog Update 6 (July 2026)

Mini update on Final Vendetta Neo Geo:

Last week we went to our head office to do a dry run assembly as planned. We checked and confirmed all items are present in the warehouse and ready to go; right down to the correct sized plastic bags and MVS screws. The only minor issue highlighted was we had the correct MVS dip sheet coloured papers, but they actually hadn’t been printed on yet!

Those have now been sorted and we believe all parts for assembly are now accounted for and all set ready for the assembly line!

CHA PCBs that needed an S ROM update have now been completed and the AES CHAs have been put into “run” mode FPGA settings, so they’re all set.

So we’re now into the final QA process, once we get the all clear from that, we can begin to program the final code onto the PROG boards!!

Thanks again for all your support!
