    The King of Fighters: Destiny

    I shall Dream Cancel your beef! Serious mode: I'm not "sassing." Since coming back I've only been involved in four topics, and two of those were ones I started, and the third was actually still on the front page. So by my count I've only bumped one topic (which I only did because I wanted...

    ... The second? What was the first?

    The King of Fighters: Destiny

    I only just discovered this anime exists, and I hope nobody minds me bumping this topic. I just finished episode 3. So I'm mixed. So far the highlight is the action, which is well-done. I think KOF: Another Day is better (probably a personal bias since I prefer 2D animation) but its nice to...

    So demystify this for me... (SNK game releases on Switch)

    Okay, one thing I hate about the Nintendo Switch eShop (and probably most digital platforms) is the redundancies. The Samurai Shodown games can be gotten either as Arcade Archives individually or as a forty dollar set that has an exclusive. This one especially hurts as I got several of the SS...

    Worst endings to Neo Geo games?

    Then again it could just be following the manga/anime for all we know (the original title was Ashita No Joe/Tomorrow's Joe if you wannna look it up--I've never read it though). For me.... well I dunno if this is a bad ending or an objectively awesome one, but one playthru of Blue's Journey I...

    (Sold) Magic Key V2 for sale

    Hey guys, a person from years back returning to get out of the collecting game. I already offloaded most of my Neo stuff but there was one thing I discovered I still have. I made a video of it: (Sorry the audio is kind of quiet--software issue) I got this guy DIRECT from the manufacturer...

    This forum is apparently considered a "phishing" site

    Just thought anyone in charge should have a heads up. Just now I came here and got a warning (I use Firefox FWIW) that said this site is a phishing site and was "blocked," though it still gave me the option to continue. I'm not sure what the heck is up with that. This did not happen when I...

    Neo stick not recognizing a direction, how to fix?

    So I have two sticks with my AES. One works fine, but the other sometimes won't register when I push up on the stick, or will only kinda-register it. Like jumps won't work in fighting games, and in Magician Lord he'll start to climb a ladder but then not go past the first rung. Basically...

    how do you open an AES cart?

    That same World Heroes is acting up again. I thought it was clean but the scratchy sound is back. Then I cleaned it and it was gone again... then it came back. Without the game even leaving the console. So I want to open it up and see if there's anything unusual on the PCBs. Just one prob...

    World Heroes AES - Scratchy/distorted sound

    So the same guy who sold me my AES also traded me Magician Lord and World Heroes. ML works fine (as does Blue's Journey, the game that was included with my AES), and World Heroes plays fine, except... The sound is distorted. How bad it is changes each time I turn on the game. Sometimes every...

    is eBay entirely to be avoided?

    I know eBay is a haven for pirated goods, and possibly bootleg Neo games. I just want to know to what extent. Surely there must be *some* Neo games that have a chance of being legit, even from eBay, right? Case in point, I'm thinking of collecting Samurai Spirits in series order.. the first...

    Is Amakusa Shiro (SS1) the easiest SNK Boss?

    So yesterday, I finally beat Samurai Shodown 1 (PS2 Anthology version) for the first time. I was playing on MVS difficulty, as Haohmaru. So, knowing this is SNK, and remembering how much Geese Howard and Rugal Bernstein handed my ass to me, and on top of that the last few opponents were...

    Joysticks not properly detecting Up and Down

    So I've been playing my Neo ever since I got it, but one fact has reared its ugly head. For some reason, my joysticks (both original Neo sticks) don't like Up and Down very much. Only game I have is Blue's Journey so I used that to test. At first I thought it was the extension cords (seller...
