In 2015 i can still say SNK put out some of the best 2d fighters ever. I could only dream of a Neo-Geo when i was young but finally got a MVS and a Sega Blast city around 2010. I do have a nice collection of MVS cards and am still impressed every time i play them. The smoothness, the animation, the sounds and controls .. topnotch!

Neo Geo was light years beyond anything anyone had experienced at the time, it's really a shame that they werent able to dominate the market simply because of cost. They could very well be a martket leader today.

No, it really wasn't. Arcade-wise it was bog-standard; but cost less for owners to operate due to the cartridge system. The Neo geo AES (home console version released in mid 1991 that competed against home computers and consoles) did one thing well and exactly one thing: sprite based games; which more often than not meant arcadey sorts of games. The CPU was a bog standard 12 MHz motorola 68000. CPU-wise it was slower than an amiga 3000 and *much* slower than a bog standard IBM PC. A little over half a year after the Neo Geo AES, ultima underworld for the PC had fully textured 3d, in real time, ability to look up and down, slanted walls, slanted floors, jumping, level over level (e.g. bridges). Now that's new; the first immersive game ever made. What the Neo geo AES did was more of the same; more sprites, more colours, bigger sprites. OK I guess. But there was nothing particularly advanced about it that Nintendo, Sega or whomever else could not do if they designed a system with expensive cartridges and expensive components.

Neo Geo in arcade is nothing than more than a low cost machine ! Well design for it's era but it's low cost arcade machine. His image of "rolls royce of console" came with AES version ... and it was intelligent to bring a rich image with a consolized version of a low cost arcade machine. In fact, MVS was and stay the most popular arcade system in the world but in console market, SNK never be the leader ... when you have a Super Nes with Mario or Fzero and nothing like that on a Neo Geo ... etc ...

I was a teen when this system was big, and I knew maybe 1-2 people who had it. Most kids would have flipped to have it, but we all knew the system was a rich kids system so we just played them in the arcade. I wonder where SNK would have been if they had came in with a $350 price tag and $75-$100 games. I wonder if publishers would have flocked to them and if they would have challenged Nintendo like Sony.

When i now looked ebay, i had laughs since the price is still steep for some editions. :) Edit: Ok at the time i didn't know games were that costly, now i'm happy i didn't get it as i wouldn't had gotten games for it ever anyway.

Right, as far as one on one fighting games go, you can't beat 2D graphics. As a fan, I would prefer it if SNK/Playmore stuck to 2D but just improved on the graphics, like they did with the Last Blade series. Also, they should have made more 2D scolling fighting games, like Final Fight or Double Dragon for example. They did Burning Fight but that was terrible. They should have made more platform games as well.

SNK talk about doing what the fans demand, I really wish and know the demands there, Its been a long time since Samurai Showdown 5 AES and am confident that demands there for NEW official cart releases, even one or two a year would sell out! They just need to say the words and people would be there! Even sell as a "pre-order" only item, sell the titles before there manufactured and only manufacture close to what they'd sell! I know its just a pipe dream from a guy that really shouldn't be playing games at this time in life, but I know the demands there! Its all very good and cool having new stuff like Last Hope by third parties but theres nothing like the magic SNK put out when they use to release official carts! Well, we can dream can't we?!... :'( MJ

PirateTube TV it was a niche product, and it was a pretty profitable strategy. Like people have said, it was originally just supposed to be sold to hotels an video rental stores but demand was high enough they started selling them to gamers, but it was never meant to be competitive with Nintendo or Sega. It was designed to be 100% arcade authentic, which made the AES and it's games expensive. A valid comparison would be that at the time Sega and Nintendo were GM and Ford, while SNK was Ferrari.

I remember growing up I wanted a NEO GEO so bad. Fast forwards in 2004-05 at Electronic boutique both systems were on sale for $150 the some games were as low as $10. I bought the neo geo CD and i still have it.

Funny thing about making the home hardware the same as the arcade, the R&D costs of the system and costs of porting the games are really small. So even if they only sell a few home consoles, they were manufacturing the same hardware for the arcade stuff anyways.

$600 a console, and $250 a game, for $850 total? Ridiculous. That was a SNES , a Sega Genesis, and 9 games. Maybe that's why I haven't meet 1 single person who ever owned a NEO GEO.

That's why SNK was kept alive only in the arcades; it would've never been able to compete successfully in the home console market... Even if the systems were FAR inferior to the Neo Geo!

I don't see why they thought they could compete with the genesis and SNES. It's like first of all $600? Price is too high, also, where is the mascot platformer? Where are the RPGs and puzzle games? People are eventually gonna get tired of only playing shmups, fighting games, and beat em ups.
