That's awesome that you defeated The Super Spy Mike. I can relate on how many times I went through so many quarters and credits just to beat it bro. 

 

As for Xeno Crisis Mike, I think they mention that they did something with a ROM release. i would have to check on that bro. 

 

Anthony.. 

Thanks, I've emailed them so I'll reply back if I get a response! 

[Mikebloke]

Already received a reply, both ROM and ISO for Xeno Crisis on Neo Geo should hopefully be coming out in the next couple of weeks after they send out the next batch of physical copies! No confirmation of price yet but I think I'll be picking it up for sure.

That's great to know Mike. I'm interested on the ROM myself. Mike at Bitmap Bureau is a true gent. Always answers questions and try hard to help the video game community as much as possible.

I do like this game, but I wonder if it's common for slow down in this game.  My MVS (MV1F) seems to suffer a fair bit of slow down in this game, as well as some others - which I believe are known for it (Twinkle Star Sprites, Metal Slugs etc..,.)

[Bod2019]

Also saw this floating around on the internet.  Don't know anything else as yet, but might interest some of you folks:

I think i remembered years ago that some mention that when they played Nightmare in the Dark when they used the MV1F board Chris. But can't really recall what was the problem because it was from a posting about 20 years ago. I might have to do some hard searching for it to see.

Obscure Not-Double-Dragon fighter Rage of the Dragons to return in 2022

Posted 4 days ago by Chris Moyse

The dying days of the world’s most expensive platform

QUByte Interactive has presented the fighting game community with the most unpredictable of announcements. It appears that the highly obscure tag-fighting title Rage of the Dragons — previously only available on the Neo Geo platform — will be getting a revamped re-release at some point next year on PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

Released in both arcades and the premium Neo Geo platform in 2002, Rage of the Dragons is one of the last games created for home Neo Geo hardware and was a co-development of studios Brezzasoft, Noise Factory, and Evoga. Originally conceived as a sequel to SNK’s Double Dragon fighter of 1995, the intellectual rights to Double Dragon could not be acquired. Thus, while suspiciously familiar characters such as Billy, Jimmy, and Abobo appear, I assure you they are absolutely NOT the Billy, Jimmy, and Abobo from Double Dragon. Honest. Yes, Jimmy’s girlfriend is “Maria.” So What?

Players pick a team of two characters from a pretty large roster of 14 individual fighters. Battling on a 2D plane, Rage of the Dragons plays out like most Neo Geo fighters of the SNK Playmore era, but does feature some neat pixel art and a hard-rocking soundtrack. QUByte did not offer any details in the way of added features, but its upcoming rerelease Breakers Collection will include a training mode and online play with rollback netcode — so hopefully Rage of the Dragons will be afforded the same cool additions. We’ll be sure to give y’all a heads-up when more info is forthcoming.

That would be interesting to know, I didn’t realise some of the boards had these types of quirks.  I also do some research and see what I can find.  Thanks Anthony.

Always nice to see new Neo Geo games released, but not sure we really need more fighting games on the platform.  Just sayin'.  Not trying throw shade on fighting games no matter how sh*tty I am on them.

You're welcome Chris. It just came right into my head after you posted it bro. Amazing what the mind stores that you haven't thought about in decades. I always enjoyed Nightmare in the Dark, and still believe it should've received an official AES launch for it.

Interestingly Ryan, I was really surprised that Rage of the Dragons was finally going to be released onto modern units. This game was so under the radar that most modern gamers didn't know this existed on the market. This game for the AES already goes for big bucks as it is. Hope it doesn't increase now because of it.
