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!

@soylentgreenb8 жыл бұрын
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 ...

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!
