The 357C is the first system with the usb hub as the previous systems used usb 2.0 extension cables.Not sure why Namco didn’t power the board internally but the 357C and 369 have an internal PSU to power the boards internally. The 357A and 357B used the same video/JVS pcb H036 USJ PCB, however, the previously unknown DC in port is to power that pcb separately.

I read about SYSCON but I’m not sure if it would work on this system, I would take a crack at it but what do you guys think? I will post images of my solder work and the system on Imgur as well!Ĭlick to expand.the previous systems also used the JVS/VGA video pcb although it’s completely different from the the 357C/369 versions. Could this be a problem? I’m not to familiar with PlayStation 3 hardware and I was hoping you guys would like to help me preserve this arcade system.

One thing I did notice is that the PS3 power supply gets noticeable hot to the touch! It’s an APS-226 PSU btw. I also added the jumper wires as I read that the original caps had a bridge. Basically, it works when it wants to.I’m not sure if it could be a BGA related problem or a power consumption/PSU problem, especially since I removed all the NECs and replaced them with high quality low ESR 330uf 2.5v tantalum capacitors.

However when I keep plugging and unplugging the power cord, it will start to revive itself and play just fine for hours without shutting itself down. When I got it, the first thing I did was remove the NEC caps as they were sort of brown by this point, I replaced all of them and the system booted up, however after some time has passed and it cooled down, the system will go back to having the 3 beeps. Just like those PS3s, this one also seems to suffer from the yellow light of death issue, could also be GLOD but I can’t tell as these pcbs don’t have the traditional LED indicators, only the tiny speaker that produces the beep error codes.

Well as the title says, I have finally found a Namco system 357 (A) with Tekken 6 bloodline rebellion installed, however it’s not 100% working.Īs you all may know, there were quite some revisions of the 357, I got the first one which uses a backwards compatible PlayStation 3 COK-002 motherboard.
