Just recently built a consolised MVS. I kinda want to put s-video in so I can use it on most TVs but I could buy a cheap upscaler and get pretty much the same outcome. What does vr think? (Runs on rgb+s atm)

HUGE fan of SNK. Probably my all-time fave dev. KoF, SamSho, Metal Slug, and Fatal Fury are all among my favorite series, along with MotM and Big Bang Pro Wrestling. They made some other great underrated games as well like Crystalis, Baseball Stars, Last Blade, and League Bowling.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 24 19:10:08 2015 No.2254598 I just got the SNK Classics Collection for ps2. It's awesome but i wish they would have made 2 titles unlockable(just remove one from the line up and make it locked). Also the challenges aren't that hard and its too easy to unlock World Heroes.

About 100 for the board, 70 for the multi cart, 10 for a jamma harness and what ended up being about 70-100 dollars for case/wires/fittings (but you could do that for much cheaper. Also a controller will run you 50-100 depending on type/condition or you could get a cable and wire up something you already have (I bought a psx converter for 25) probably much cheaper in the states. I bought my multi cart from Ali express

Biggest decision is which main board I went with a mfz1 which had it's own problems such as because I wanted to only use 5v I had to totally reroute the sound. Some boards don't have socketed BIOS so putting a uni bios in is a big hassle. I would like to eventually put in a unibios and composite/a video but that'll cost me another 110 for both chips.

Bit of an unpopular opinion, but I like '95 the most out of all the KoF games. The mega-damage allows for great comebacks, and it's the best realization of the original concept of KoF: a cool AoF/FF crossover with its own universe. It also just has the best "90's arcade game vibe," I think.

No match for '98's all-around perfection. I don't know of another game with a better mix of footsies, fundamentals and damaging combos. Seriously, it hits a perfect sweet spot between ST's all-out mind games and the all-out combos of later KoF and newer fighting games in general.

I loved 90s SNK for not being a bunch of racists like their rival Capcom was. That character right there is a first Ainu video game character in history! A lot of Japanese people in that era didn't care much for the Ainu. SNK didn't mind allowing their flagship characters to spotlight countries that were other than USA and Japan. In KoF 95 I'm pretty sure that AoF team was the team Mexico, FF team was Italy. I don't know about you all, but if I were a Brazilian, I'd much more prefer to have Ikari Warriors as my guys over some green ape that discharges electricity.

In case anybody is interested, here is a list of Neo-Geo MVS games along with their original prices for arcade operators:
http://castleofcollectibles.com/dungeon/dungeon.html#mvs

It's in Yen, but I assume prices for the US weren't too different since there was no region encoding. KOF 2001 was well over $1500 dollars according to this list, and that is for late 2001 money.

Rage of the Dragons could have been a million seller in my eyes if they spent just a little more effort for it to iron out the infinitely looping combos and added more animations to it.

>>2255935
Neo Geo had some fantastic sports and puzzle games.
Windjammers, Super Dodge Ball,
Bust-A-Move, Magical Drop, Neo Bomber Man,
The Ultimate 11, and Baseball Stars.
Baseball Stars I prefer to play the NES port, actually, because of the create-a-player mode. The first Baseball Start Professional has better camera, and Baseball Stars 2 has better control and graphics.

There are also a fair bit of side scrollers if you're into those, like Spin Masters, Magician Lord, Super Top Hunter, Twinkle Star Sprites, Zupapa, Eight Man, Shock Troopers, and of course the Metal Slug games.

Matrimelee is extremely weird, but a lot of fun. Make sure you play the JP version, the overseas setup removed a lot of the speech and the great music.

The gameplay is mostly cat and mouse, since everyone can dash, double jump. air throw, and do a safety roll (which is free and fully invincible). Counter hits do 50% extra damage, and if you nick someone during a dash attack you get a Double Counter which does double damage.

There was a meh PS2 port which introduced some old Power Instinct game elements (the wrestling girl, transformations), but removed the little helpers you could smack around, so it was less fun.

If you like it, go straight for the Taito Type X version. It has a different combo system, more new characters (two more grannies...), and some extra cutscenes. More of the same really, but with a lot of extra spice.

There was also a Nesica X Live port which actually updated the balance after 10 years, but I dunno if there is a way to play it on PC (the regular Type X can be played with a loader).

Nazca was bought out by SNK and continued developing games with the same team until old SNK bit the dust.(Metal Slug 2, X and 3) Neo Turf Masters is an SNK IP, although not a whole lot else was done with it apart from a NGPC installment.

It's definitely one of the most mysterious old companies that was out there. Only like 2 members of their staff are known by their real names, and are very secretive about the others which were all credited under pseudonyms.

They also allegedly developed a bunch of games under Irem like In the Hunt and Geostorm before Irem gave up on the arcade market, which is when they founded Nazca.

>The game's sequel, tentatively titled Garou: Mark of the Wolves 2, was reported to be in the works on the Neo Geo system several times by Korean news sources. Since 2002, the project has been put on hold and its current status remains unknown. According to Falcoon at the 2005 KOF Party, the game's sequel was around 70% percent complete by the old SNK team. Ureshino reported that a new grappler character and Joe Higashi's apprentice were added to the roster.

That, World Heroes Pocket, a QUALITY Metal Slug 4, King of Fighters R-3, and a QUALITY King of Fighters 2001 were all casualties of SNK's bankruptcy. There are also rumors that Last Blade 3 was planned at some point.

Garou 2 was the biggest loss. The original had so much potential, but as it stands it's little more than the poor man's 3rd Strike. I honestly think that with some fine tuning and a larger roster it could have been better than Street Fighter.

>>2258060
>what would make me unreasonably hype is a Real Bout 3

Real Bout 3 with a single plane of movement, a larger roster than 2, and perfected balance could have been the ultimate fighting game imo. RBFF2 is SO MUCH FUN. Maybe the most underrated fighting game of all time.

The Just Defend is as simple as blocking right before somebody attacks you. Naturally it's much easier said than done, but if you do it successfully you get a tiny bit of life back and frame advantage. It's like a no-risk parry. The window is smaller but if you screw it up, you just block instead.

Otherwise it plays pretty straightforward but if you want to get into advanced moves look up how to break/cancel out of specials. Each character has different special moves that can be shortened this way and cancelled into supers.

Even the Sakazakis where 2nd or 3rd generation Japanese Americans, Metal Slog was all about whatever US Middle east conflict was going down at the time ( i lost track of them)

I don't think Blanka exemplifies a typical Brazilian. Compare:

>By deploying common archetype contextually, a writer aims to impart realism to his work.

vs.

If i'm not mistaken Blanka is from the US. And even if he was brazilian i would not mind him being an ugly monster, i like him even more because of that and he's a cool character on his own with great moves.

Yeah, i checked capcom.com and it says he is indeed brazilian.

My mistake, but i'm sure i've read somewhere not too long ago that he was not from Brazil and it even cited capcom as source.

Metal Slug is about a non-specific army taking over the entire world and a multi-national spec-ops squad opposing them in the first game and after that it's basically about fighting aliens. The player two guy is Japanese and after that no other characters are American until Ralf and Clark cameo'd in the 6th one.

>and after that it's basically about fighting aliens

2, X, and 3 were all about the same rebel army trying to take over the world, but now in an alliance with martians, which backfires.

4 is about a mad professor using some tech virus and building an army of robots and cyborgs, including ones of the rebel army leaders (Morden and "you are mince meat" Allen).

5 has some smugglers in the rain forests stealing the blueprints of the Metal Slug tank, and building their own version - you can fight it as a hidden enemy on level 1. Then you have some cultists summoning a demon and taking command of the smuggler group. Unfortunately, the game was only half finished when they released it, it had a lot of cool shit not put in the game.

6 was about another, more horrible group of aliens attacking, so you team up with the rebel army and the martians against them.

Those are all the ones I remember.

During the earlier years of it's life you could find them in stores, but the later games(~1996+) were pretty much mail order only. I don't think they manufactured any AES systems after that period, since the same thing happened with the MVS cabinets which were only manufactured until '96-'97.

Certain US AES releases like The King of Fighters 2000 had a ton of controversy surrounding them, since a seller(NeoGeoFreak) bought the entire US print run, replaced the official inserts and manuals with their own and then sold them at a markup. SNK Playmore eventually got them raided and sued, although I'm not sure what result it had.

The Mexican in me loves Neo Geo all of a sudden. Grew up more with Capcom fighters but i discovered NG gamea on Gametap. Used to love playing Metal Slug and KOF96 & 98. Garou imo is the best SNK fighter made. Tho Real Bout Fatal Fury Specials are the best FF style games. Samurai Shodown is so amazing. Metal Slug 1&3 are masterpieces. Last Blade is just gorgeous the animation looks so great still to this day. While imo KOF96,98-00 are the best the Series has to offer. I thought SNK vs Capcom was mediocre and Rage of the Dragons has potential. What are some other good SNK games? I feel like I've only begun.

Do you mean SNK-developed only or do you also include other developers? Asking this because Rage of the Dragons was made by Noise Factory, although designed by a Mexican studio.

If so, definitely check out Sengoku 3, one of the best beat-em-ups on the Neo Geo. You might also want to check out some of the different genres with Neo Turf Masters for golf, Pulstar and Blazing Star for shoot-em-ups, and Windjammers for advanced pong,

Does SNK Playmore understand how capitalism works? They could sue to using infringing on their characters likeness rights, as they created their own packaging material to include with every sale. But beyond that they don't have a case. It's not illegal to scalp electronics. Unfortunately.

Old SNK was on their last legs and NGF was offering to take entire print runs off their hands.

I bought myself an MVS cabinet for my birthday and one of my friend wanted to buy me a game i wanted for it neither of us are savvy when it comes to retro game but he showed me a link to the game and it said neo geo jamma, and he was going to buy it instead of the other ones because the cartridge looked cleaner

Neo geo is jamma (technically jamma+ as its 4 buttons instead of 3),Jamma is an industry standard connector which connects your neo geo to your cab ,most arcade pcbs use the jamma connector so you can use your neo geo cab for a lot more than just neo geo games

Just found that auction, it's probably legit despite the probably replaced label.

All Neo Geo MVS carts work on an MVS system apart from the Neo Geo Print cartridges. It will work fine on any Neo Geo model. JAMMA is a connection standard the board itself(not the cartridge) uses a variant of to connect to the cabinet.

"JAMMA" refers to the 56-pin harness that connects a game board to the cabinet.

"Neo-Geo" is a type of game board, by SNK, which accepts Neo-Geo MVS cartridges.

If you have an MVS motherboard in the cabinet, then a Neo-Geo cartridge is what you want. If there's no board in there, then you need the cartridge and a Neo-Geo MVS motherboard. Cheap ones are around $100.

MVS cart pinout is MVS cart pinout. JAMMA was just used as keyword bait I'd imagine. However, MVS mobos can be JAMMA or MVS pinout depending on the model, but that is irrelevant here and only matters for connecting the motherboards in the cab. The top appears to have a homemade label or something?

The Italy and Mexico thing was in KoF94 - after that game they dropped the nationality theme for teams.
There's also the fact that the characters in those teams weren't necessarily residents of those countries, since they're based on South Town USA.
Still, that freed up the USA slot for Heavy D! (pretty cool design for a fairly standard character type, the black boxer) and his team, and it allowed them to introduce a new protagonist through the Japan team - again, because their modern day FG protagonists back then were americans.

And nowadays they seem to be gravitating towards China, which makes business sense - and the story has been leaning in that direction since KoF99, with that dragon power subplot with Kensou, and those Chinese Hizoku ninjas and Lon.

Fatal Fury as a series was never really married to its mechanics.

FF1:
punch button, kick button, throw button

FF2, FFS, FF3, Garou:
2 punch buttons, 2 kick buttons

Real Bouts:
punch button, kick button, strong attack button, plane shift button

And that's just for the basic controls. Having a way to deal with projectiles tends to be a greater overriding principle in SNK games in general and FF series in particular than the specific mechanics to do it with.

Terry's story is actually pretty perversible - you put his story on a cop show and he automatically becomes a suspect of murder and pedophilia, or in the very least child abduction.

Think about it: for all we know, Jeff Bogard was a single man - who adopted a couple of pretty young blond boys.

Then the police commissioner Howard takes him down.

Years later, the boys push Howard off the roof, and one of them, still single, takes his son with him around the world, for all we know with no fixed address, and Terry himself can't seem to get or hold a proper job.

It's a pretty dodgy life when you look at it.

AoF was incredibly innovative for the genre in terms of mechanics and balancing the depiction of plot considering it had to be both an arcade and console game.

The flow of gameplay, however, wasn't quite as sharp as SNK's later attempts - but it was an important step to get there.

There was a time throwing was considered "cheap". Unfortunately, there were some players/characters so good at turtling that throwing their ass out of the corner was the only way. This was also back in the early days before overhead attacks and other things to discourage crouching block.

Infinite combos are also considered cheap. I did it once in MK with Raiden because I had never done it before (just read about it). I laughed at how ridiculous it was, but I felt bad and gave the guy the next round.

Best: KOF '98, Magical Drop III, Last Blade 2, Metal Slug 3, Real Bout FF 2, Samurai Shodown II, Sengoku 3

Shock Troopers 1/2 and/or Ninja Commando if you like top down shooters

Top Hunter if you like platformers

Neo Turf if you like golf

god, I wish my friends would play Magical Drop 3 with me

none of them seem to really get the game, except this other guy who's really big into SNK collecting
and he'd rather just play Garou

>>2268320
this guy knows what he's talking about >>2268336

I'd also put Fighters History Dynamite, but that's just because I like that game myself -- it's an unashamed SFII clone, but it's got a couple neat ideas and it's actually pretty fun with friends (the AI is an asshole and will perfectly grab you repeatedly though, at times when a human player wouldn't even attempt one)

Neo Turf Masters is a must as well. Even if you don't actually like golf.

I think there's plenty of evidence in this thread. It's one of the most insane infighting, scamming, backstabbing groups of people ever, who barely play games but would rather nitpick about the smallest anal retentive bullshit for years and years. That would all be bad enough but then there's the fact that NeoGeo is hands down the most expensive system to collect so they feel that their insanity is justified somehow.

I washed my hands of it over a decade ago, sold my consolized MVS, bought a Supergun, and never looked back.

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 04:41:04 2015 No.2269160 >>2268517 I wonder if it's possible to 1cc it. You have basically to always get a birdie on every hole. On match play, it definitely isn't for one player.

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 06:46:04 2015 No.2269267 Can anyone tell me if the AES was ever released in Australia/how popular it was if so?

I almost did it once, but fucked up in the second to last hole I believe. Wasn't close to being first though if I remember correctly, AI scores just seem random. However I managed to stay in first place a few times, with -10 being the best score I got, but I had to coin feed at least once.

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 22:14:56 2015 No.2270609 >>2269267 I saw one at a local video store set up as a kind of display unit. I played Nam 1975 on it and never saw it again. I have no idea what happened to it after that as I never saw one in my lands again.

well, MVS collecting isn't nearly that bad, especially if you just want to play games on real HW (most MVS games aren't terribly expensive)

but anything related to the AES is a hilarious nightmare and there's pretty much no reason to get into it
buddy of mine sold a bunch of his AES stuff because he was going to college and wasn't really playing it
he wants to get some of it back, but can't be arsed to deal with the scene
and he has a CMVS anyway, so it's easier to just get MVS games and bypass the majority of fuckery
