Not really.

 

[Neo_Mike_81]

I guess.

 

[HornheaDD]

only if I get to play naked.

The neostore has one listed for $15,000. There were repro 4-player boards available that work with the Unibios at one point.

That's mandatory with all Neo Geo games.

The creator of Neotris said he's working on a 4-player adapter. That could be cross-compatible if it works the same way.

Yessssssssss

It isn't. Here's how it works:

Very cool SNK oddity that hopefully goes to a good home and gets some use.

Interesting that these have pads to add DB15 connectors but were never used. Operators could have had home pads coming out of the coin door to squeeze four people onto a single cabinet instead of needing two.

Is Kizuna the first four-player tag fighter then? It predates VF3TB by a year.

 

[Neo Alec]

I don't think arcade operators were ever meant to have controllers dangling out from the machine. I think controller ports were included on MVS boards for testing.

 

[ShaolinAce]

Couldn't you just.. swap controllers?

No.

But then you're missing out on MASSIVE OPERATOR REVENUE. 4 players = 4 coin drops.

Sounds like fu'un.

I see what you did there! Either way, I would like to play what is essentially Cross Fever mode in Kizuna Encounter.

That and the Mahjong control panels I believe.

Now that I think about it, I know there is a pic of the title screen from 4P Kizuna but is there any gameplay video of this particular version out there? Just curious...

One of the NGFL guys bought one of these a while back and made a vid I think. Last couple of sales of these I've seen were just over $1k, so close to $3k is pushing it, and the Neostore is having a laugh as usual. No bids so far so we'll see...

 

[Heinz]

Is the 4 player version available in mame or something? Because if it is I dunno why anyone would pay 3k for that kit. Madness.

 

[yagamikun]

Huh - heard about this in the past but haven't actually seen a board. Neat rarity, but I've never once thought to myself, "gee, I'd love to play 4-player Kizuna."

 

[max 330 mega]

No one who owns or plays neo geo even has 3 friends, therefore it's pointless!

 

[SpamYouToDeath]

But does it work with Bomberman?

Almost positive it was determined that bomberman actually doesnt even have the coding present to do 4 player.
