    Hey thank you so much! I look forward to playing it. 

     

    I just got my power cable in the mail today so I'll be working on that in the meantime. 

     

    Definitely appreciating all the love in this thread

    Check your private messages. NAM 75 is on it’s way!

    @ColecoGamer I completely understand it going to Shane or Anthony, but if they pass, and you decide I would be worthy of such a spectacular gift, I would cherish it in my collection. I understand it being a reproduction, but it's still a super cool topic of conversation. I'm still waiting on my first official game. I ordered King of Fighters from Japan so it's taking some time. Crazy overall, because my NGCD came in less than 5 days.

     

    Once I get a game in and can have some input for this thread, I should be posting a lot more. haha

    You can have it, Dopy. Shane doesn’t want it and Anthony already has an original copy. As long as you own a single-speed unit, the game will work fine. Free of charge, of course.

     

    if you can provide your shipping details via p.m. tonight, I’ll mail it out tomorrow.

    Thank you for the offer Mike. But I have that game in the collection. I appreciate you doing this for me, but that would be greedy and would rather see it in the hands to someone who doesn't have it. Maybe @shane857 @Dopy25 or @-^CrossBow^- would like it. :)

     

    Anthony...

    @shane857 Would you like a free copy of Nam 1975 for your Neo-Geo CD? It works on the single-speed Top Loader, not the CDZ. I found a copy that works. Send your mailing address via PM, and I’ll send it out. It’s on me, man. No need to pay anything. This copy has no place in my collection, if I can’t play it.

    Oh wow! That's awesome news to know Mike. Glad you have Magician Lord to add to the mix. What do you plan to do with the fake NAM-1975 bro? Still thinking of keeping it?

     

    Anthony..

    I’m willing to give it to someone who wants it. It really doesn’t have a purpose here in my collection. You’re welcome to it if you want, Anthony.

    I think the exact sentence was rather that it would be difficult or even impossible to make a pixel perfect because of the insufficient RAM on the Jaguar and/or the insufficient speed of the cartridge port as well as the particularity of these display modes compared to the majority of 2D arcade games of the time (tile mode and very large CLUT)

    Your memory is better than mine! Thank you for chiming in!

    Super Sidekicks came today. I now own two physical NEO-GEO CD games. This and Samurai Spirits 2.

    I don't like 'serious' sports games like Fifa, John Madden, NBA. I do like Arcade style sports games thou like this...

    Check out Street Hoops, Football Frenzy and Windjammers for some of the best sports games on Neo-Geo. Also, take a look at Baseball Stars 2!

    Hi Mike,

     

    I personally feel that SNK is not in a position to release a new game system at this time. Yes, that would be great. But they just started to get back on track and now we are finally seeing investers taking interest in the company and spending the big bucks on SNK and franchises getting releases after years of lying dormant. Would be nice to see them do so. But at the current market, I feel they should concentrate on making software. I would like to see Ikari Warriors return or better yet, Crystalis. What a game that was. :)

     

    Anthony...   

    You make good points, Anthony. Maybe if SNK brought back more IPs (i.e. Crystalis, Ikari Warriors, Psycho Soldiers, etc) we’d see a more diverse SNK. 
     

    If you’re reading this SNK, bring back your old IPs. Yes, I am happy to see KOF and the new Fatal Fury, but us fans want more!

    The PC-Engine version is also playable when compared to the Amiga Original. However, I prefer the Amiga version's music.

    I agree! I was blown away by the music when I played the game for the first time on my Amiga 500. The graphics, the parallax scrolling - it was an incredible thing to see back in the day.

    I think a platform game in the vein of Shadow of the Beast and its sequels would be more than doable on the Neo Geo.

    What an incredible choice! I love Shadow of the Beast. The PC-Engine version had enormous sprites and enhanced backgrounds. Imagine what a Neo-Geo release would be like!

  10. I wish SNK didn’t limit these sales to Japan only. Fans of SNK/NeoGeo are all over the world and I’m sure a satellite store like the one in the photos, would do well in big cities like Boston, New York, etc.

     

    This was always a problem with the NeoGeo also. SNK Japan was always hesitant to send a new game release to the West, because the home sales were nothing like they were in Japan.

     

    This is why there are two types of fans: NeoGeo fans and SNK fans. The former cares about the system and its games, while the latter cares more about the company and its modern IPs. I’m from the former - I love the Neo-Geo. SNK could have reintroduced a modern NeoGeo if they wanted to, but they won’t because the Hyper NeoGeo 64 failed outside Japan.

     

    This reason alone is why I am not a fan of SNK. Plus, I feel the modern releases of their games lack the energy and magic of the Neo Geo originals. 🤷 What can you do, you know?
