+Charlie Cat Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Hi guys, Back with New Atariage member MetalPixelGamer (DJ) doing a great video gameplay and review video on Neo-Geo titles that I requested the kind sir on playing. A very nicely done upload from A-Z and DJ also mentions his memorizes playing these games when he was younger. Thank you DJ. for sharing thus with us. We look forward on seeing more from you in the immediate future! From the description, "Join me as I share my memories, and thoughts of Samurai Shodown. Samurai Shodown on the Neo Geo made everyone want a Neo Geo console. When most people who grew up in the 80's and 90's think of Neo Geo, they think of samurai shodown, or metal slug."

+Charlie Cat Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 Hi guys, Back again with fellow Atariage member Richard Evans (richard31337) doing another fun and first hi-score attempted with Zed Blade. The video was sent and pending approval at this time. But we need not to worry. Richard is a professional at what he does. We can be assured that it will be approved soon by Twin Galaxies. From the description, "This is my first high score attempt at Zed Blade on Neo Geo MVS. I will be submitting this score to Twin Galaxies. Although it's not comparable on Twin Galaxies, this score would get me fourth place if it are on MAME rather than original arcade hardware. The first place on MAME is 1,665,100 which I aim to beat as a personal goal." Anthony... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally released in 1990, the 16-bit powerhouse reigned for over 14 years as a 2D juggernaut, and was home to some of the most iconic franchises of the 1990’s. The console, which was built from the same guts as SNK’s MVS (Multi Video System) arcade hardware, is best remembered for its ludicrously steep price tag when it was released — it was priced at $649 dollars when it launched in 1990, while games were nearly half that price — as well as its staggering stable of fighting game franchises such as The King of Fighters, Samurai Shodown and Fatal Fury series. However, there were more than brawlers to be had on the Neo Geo, which also featured a heap of brilliant puzzle games and some of the most unforgettable run-and-gun titles ever released. Without further ado, here are five must-play games for SNK’s Ferrari of 16-bit era0 Comments 517 5. The Last Blade Samurai Shodown may be the most well known weapons-based fighting franchise for the Neo, but it’s certainly not the only one. The Last Blade may not get the same recognition as SNK’s pioneering ninja slash-fest, but it’s arguably the superior series. This is in no small part thanks to The Last Blade‘s breathtaking visual direction and refined fighting engine that’s built around a clever parrying mechanic. Tapping the “D” button at the last second allows you to deflect your enemy’s attack, leaving them vulnerable for a punishing counterattack. It’s a smart system, and it’s executed flawlessly, making for a game that shines when played competitively. Combine that with a varied cast of characters that includes a giant who can turn his skin to stone and a ghoulish assassin who eviscerates his foes with a massive twin-blade and you have a recipe for one kick ass fighter. Those who’ve yet to experience the series are in luck, as The Last Blade 2 will be making its way to the PlayStation 4 via the PSN Store on May 24th. 0 Comments 520 4. Sengoku 3 Known as “Sengoku Legends 2001” in Japan, the third entry in SNK’s supernatural beat ’em up series leaves its predecessors in the dust. Developer Noise Factory really went all-out with this slugfest by introducing a deep and satisfying combo system that makes each battle feel fresh and engaging. The game also sports some large and impressively detailed sprites that feature some stellar animations. While all of this is fine and well, the music is also unforgettable, which comes as no surprise considering Noise Factory’s talent composed the music for Metal Slug 3, a game that features some of the best tunes on the Neo Geo. Simply put, if you’re a fan of games like Final Fight andStreets of Rage, you owe it to yourself to play Sengoku 3. The cost of both the home console and MVS versions of the game has skyrocketed in recent years. But fear not, as the game is available for a song on Nintendo’s Virtual Console. 0 Comments 521 3. Shock Troopers Few kinds of games can scratch that primal arcade itch in quite the same way a good run-n’-gun shooter does. And when it comes to these types of games, few can hold a candle to Saurus’Shock Troopers. Heavily inspired by the likes of SNK’s own Ikari Warriors series and Capcom’sMERCS, Shock Troopers is a bloody, white knuckle trek through three branching paths of pure destruction. The game’s stages range from the traditional jungle and village locales to more over-the-top designs, like a shootout atop a speeding train, and even a stage where you take the fight to the evil Bloody Scorpion group while burning rubber on a motorbike. Like big bosses? Shock Troopers has ’em. How about huge explosions? Yup, you’ll find those in spades here, too. Hell, the game even has one of the funkiest soundtracks around, full of adrenaline-pumping drum & bass and rock tracks to help you put on your war face. Simply put,Shock Troopers has about everything you could ask for from a run-n’-gun shooter. While the game never saw an official release on the Neo Geo home console (its release was exclusive to the arcades), you can still pick it up on the SNK Classics Collection that released on the PS2 and PSP. 0 Comments 522 2. Blazing Star If you’re a fan of horizontal shooters, Blazing Star is the game for you. Developed by Yumekobo (Pulstar, Prehistoric Isle 2), Blazing Star manages to climb to the top of the Neo Geo’s shooter pack, delivering a variety of vibrant stages that host plenty of towering bosses, along with some gorgeous, pre-rendered ship models that pop off the screen. Players can choose from a variety of ships, each sporting their own special shot standard and charged shots, each offering a drastically different play style. Oh, and did I mention the boss of the game is a giant fetus with a bazooka? Yeah, you literally battle a rocket-launching baby in the heart of a hostile alien cesspool. Need I say more? Fun fact: Blazing Star is actually the game responsible for the name of this humble site of ours. When you’re shot out of the sky, the computer will deride you with a brilliantly Engrish, “Hey, Poor Player!” Yumekobo, you are our muse. 1. Metal Slug 3 It’s impossible to talk about the Neo Geo without bringing up Metal Slug. And with good reason, as SNK and Nazca’s Contra-killer is one of the most ridiculously over-the-top and entertaining series out there. Out of all of the numerous entries in the series since its inception in back in 1996, none is more noteworthy than Metal Slug 3. The third numbered entry in the series (and fourth game in the franchise to be released on the Neo Geo), Slug 3 is something of a swan song for the franchise. It’s the last entry in the series developed by SNK proper before the company went bankrupt and were purchased by Playmore. That said, it’s only fitting that the game feels like a final farewell, as SNK turned the dial to 11, delivering an epic shooter experience that takes players from the depths of ancient tombs to the cosmos and everywhere in-between. You’ll dive into deep waters in the Slug Sub, soar in a jet pack into enemy airspace as you dogfight Morden’s airborne troops, and even hurtle through space in a vertical shooter sequence that could have been ripped out of a game in theAero Fighters series. While we’ve seen a slew of entries in the series since Metal Slug 3 on everything from the Atomiswave arcade hardware to the Nintendo DS, none of these successors has quite managed to reach the quality of Metal Slug 3. It’s a shining example of SNK’s talent and ingenuity, and it simply can’t be beat. I mean just look at that monster my son is battling in the picture above. He’s a masterpiece! Metal Slug 3 is available on everything from your mobile phone and PS4 to your toaster. If you don’t own it, get off your butt and do so. Marco’s orders. So, our dear readers, what are some of your favorite games for the Neo Geo? Did we leave out your favorite game in the system’s library?

The kind sir recently did an amazing video of the history of the Neo-Geo MVS second hand market that really is a finally detailed video that should be viewed. for those that are into MVS collecting. From the description, "How arcade operators bypassed the illegalities of selling non-resale products, and an interesting find I've just discovered on a cart I've owned for 7 years, which relates to this in an even different way that I've not before encountered, revealing a history of engaging in the disreputable second-hand market practice on an international scale, which would have not only violated the not for resale principle, but also violated territorial agreements as well. So this particular cart is really a very interesting part of my collection, which has a great story to tell." Anthony... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
