Just moved to Melbourne a few months ago and looking to see if there is any NEO GEO Community here. Wouldn't mind getting a few beers and playing some NEO in the land down under!

Was there for 2 weeks as part of work. I live in Newcastle NSW, I prefer the country areas. The cities annoy me.

Not so much now. Back when I first joined this site - Yeah, I was in there quite a bit. Back then, nearly everything was over-priced (when you're the only arcade dealer - you charge what you want I guess), but you could score a few gems now and then. The shop lay-out probably wouldn't look like what you would imagine.

I'd be surprised if they are still there to be honest, but I just checked their website and it looks like they're still going strong. Maybe I'll pop in and see what's changed over the years.

Highway are still there and active, I was there about 6 months ago.

I picked my current L&AI 4slot off them over 10 years ago.

Yea for sure! Hopefully some other come out of hiding. Wouldn't mind getting a few beers and meeting some people.

Maybe I'll post something in the meet up section?

Met a few people from here both in the States and the UK. They can confirm I'm not that weird, just a alchy...
