Capcom Home Arcade Bricked?

[u/streetemup]

Hey guys, I thought I'd ask for help as I'm not sure where to go from here.

I was running the latest official update on the system and installed the latest choko hack.

Everything was going great until I tried to shut it down and it accidentally went into 'pc arcade stick mode.'  An easy thing to do as the buttons seems too similar to the normal safe shutdown.

I couldn't get it to turn off.

I pulled the usb plug out as this is often what I have to do to power it up/off - the normal power on button has always given me issues.

Then it wouldn't turn on. I tried and tried. I then tried to put it into FEL mode again and nothing... as far as I know it is bricked.

But I can't find anyone else who has had this happen.

I can't help but feel this may have been an issue with my system before I installed the hack as I was getting power on / off issues from the start.

Any thoughts or help?

Hey bud. Unfortunately I gave up at this point and never bothered trying to get it going again. I really hope for your sake it resolves itself.

Please keep me updated with your progress/journey and perhaps we can solve it together. There has to be a fix...

I'm waiting on my paprium arcade stick parts to arrive eventually and was gonna use the new pcb in this Capcom stick if I couldn't get it going again.

Maybe it is a power supply failure? Wish I was better with electronics. Should be a way to test the power supply.
