Even though some of the folks here seemed turned off by it. --- End quote --- I already said why I dislike it further up this page so I'll just sum up here - they're ripping people off and hoping people don't notice "because Neo Geo". The product has little concern for accuracy or authenticity and for the $180 Amazon are currently asking for the starter pack I could buy a *real* MVS ($50), Samurai Spirits 2 ($20) and a supergun (about $50 for a Vogatek) to play it on my TV. |

You do get 20 games built in though and a Neo Geo AES on ebay the cheapest I can find is around 300 with shipping and no games so for 200 with tax you get a handheld a console and a controller with 20 built in games. If you look at it as a sampler its not that bad to introduce a gamer to the neo geo company. Yes in a sense if you already own a Neo Geo Aes and you dont collect systems it seems like a rip off but to start off in to the system it gives you a pretty good idea of what your getting yourself into. |

The only people interested in Neo-Geo at this point are people already familiar with it, and for anyone looking for a way to 'sample' that stuff, there are tons of games available on MAME, PSN, XBLA, and a ton of other places. As kimimi pointed out, you can buy an MVS (the AES is different) for dirt cheap these days and be up and running with real arcade hardware under $200. |

When you're saying buy an MVS, do you mean the hardware alone? A complete cab? Or a consolized single slot MVS? Last I checked running cabs ain't cheap. And if you're buying the hardware alone, then you've got to spend the money either building a cab for it or consolizing it yourself. Unless its a pre-consolized single slot MVS, I don't see how you can get away in the $200 range. |
