Dumping Naomi PICs

Post by Hellfromabove »

Hey guys, found the link to this place on Mameworld forums. Anyway, I see that you guys have some partially dumped Naomi 1/ 2 games. Seems that the only thing that's missing from them is the dumped PIC for each of the games. Does anyone here know how to dump the PICs for the Naomi GD Rom games? If someone could post a tutorial on how to make one that would be awesome. I got a guy here that does a lot of import and export of arcade games and machines. As long as the game is used he'll let me borrow it so I can play them, test them, etc. So there are some rare games that he has that I would like to dump but of course they aren't good unless I can dump the PIC. So far I've sent a couple games that I could afford off to The Guru over at Mameworld and they should be arriving to him shortly. Don't get your hopes up they aren't that big of games, only Virtua Tennis GD Rom and WWF Royal Rumble Cart but anything is anything right now. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hi there.
I don't think there's any easy way to dump Naomi PICs. It seems to need special equipment and skills. The only person I know that does this thing is the Guru, like you said yourself.
Hope someone else can provide more info. :?

There is one other person who does this, el semi. I talked to him about a month ago and asked him how he made his. He told me he didn't even build his, his friend built it for him and he just paid him. I've been busy and haven't been able to talk to him currently but when I do I'm going to see if his friend can build me one if I pay him. I do know one person who has a Katana and said you might be able to dump PICs from it. He wasn't too sure though. Anyone know?

Awesome, thanks yesthanks. Also, whoever has the VF4:FT and GG Slash if you wouldn't mind letting The Guru borrow it for dumping it would save me a little over $200 :lol:. Instead of having to buy these games that someone on here has I could put it towards a better, more requested, newer game such as GGAC or MBAA. That is if you aren't able to get the PIC dumper working, hehe.

@Hellfromabove- donated & shipped [GDL-0033A] GUILTY GEAR XX SLASH Mon b/f last. GUILTY GEAR XX ACCENT CORE & MELTY BLOOD Actress Again are rather expensive atm & a tad new. developers are still making money on these games both in AM & console markets. better to invest in a rarity or something like BORDER DOWN which could be purchased for ~US$200 or less.

Thanks for supporting the cause man, much appreciated. Guess I can put the money towards another game now hehe. I will go ahead and ask my friend/ japanese arcade supplier how much he can get the rest of the games on Guru's list for just in case some of you are interested in buying some for donation or personal use. Thanks.

P.S.: Anyone care to make me a PIC dumper? I'll pay :D.

@Hellfromabove- post a price list. if you're thinking of investing in the NAOMI GD-ROM SYSTEM you should consider also buying a Dreamact & Broadband Adapter. dumping is quite easy & we could use the help in documenting.

I have 3 dreamcasts so that's no problem. Finding the broadband adapter though will be quite hard since they only pop up on Ebay once in a blue moon. Yes, when I get a PIC dumper working then I will help dump games and document.

Also, just wanted to let some of you know, hopefully Friday I will be purchasing Gundam Federation vs Zeon Cart and Virtua Striker 3 GD Rom.

You know what, scratch that, seems that he already has Virtua Striker 3. Looks like that means I get to spend money on something else, hehe. I will be buying the Gundam today but should I also purchase Border Down or Trizeal at this point? Thanks.

-Tha Hindu

EDIT: Purchased Virtua Striker 4 GD Rom, Mobile Suit Gundam vs. Zeon Cart, and World Series '99. I'll probably purchase either Border Down, Trizeal, or Puyo Puyo Fever later in the week.

Hey yesthanks, when you build yours if you would be able to build an extra for me that would help a lot. Of couse I would make all my dumps available here. Anyway, I got a GREAT deal on Border Down and Puyo Puyo Fever (pretty sure Puyo Puyo Fever is a gem to find or something like that) so I went ahead and bought those. So the games I have purchased so far are:

- Border Down GD-Rom
- Chaos Field GD-Rom
- Mobile Suit Gundam vs. Zeon Cart
- Puyo Puyo Fever
- Virtua Striker 4 GD-Rom (Triforce)
- Virtua Tennis GD-Rom
- WWF Royal Rumble Cart
- World Series '99 Cart

I've only received WWF and VT, still waiting on the others. I really hope this helps the Naomi emulation scene.

No probs, was worth a shot. :lol:
BTW if you get an incorrect key error from gdrom2rom the memory region given in the lst file is still correct, you then need to use the descrypt method (on this site) to get the rom. This is of course if you use nullDC.
Hellfromabove i'll keep you posted, biggest prob's the pcb, don't wanna build it on a project board but thats just me.

Alright guys, I think I found a way to games for almost next to nothing (kind of). If it works out for me I'll let you guys know about it in the next couple of days. Right now I'm trying to get GGAC.
