No internet or social media back then my G. Some buffoon, clout chaser would ruin the 'early release' well in advance these days.

Games for 70 bucks and controllers were 14. WATTBA.

My parents were the real mvps for the Super Nintendo games.

Now controllers are more expensive than the games.

This was good. Makes me want to go back and finish Mario 64. I don't think I ever got all the stars. Brings back memories.

I also have never played Pilot Wings or Star Fox. Are they worth playing?

TURBO UNO

I was looking into a Neo Geo and read that it is the best console for fighting games.

Then I saw the prices


Maybe one day they release a Neo Geo mini. Would not bother at all with that small arcade cabinet they released.

Everyone that knew about it wanted one.

Thankfully the bowling alley near me had one of those 4-in-one Neo Geo cabinets.
I remember playing Magician Lord a bunch.

Maybe one day they release a Neo Geo mini.

That's not a bad idea in my opinion...make Neo Geo gaming affordable for once.
I think a lot of folks that knew about the original would be interested in this.
Would that drop the og cart prices?

Maybe for SNK Fighters, yes.

The Sega Saturn was known to be the King of the Capcom ports.

Neo Geo had alot of fighting games. Maybe thats what they meant from the video I saw. They also had Metal Slug. Always was a fan of that series.


Never liked the Saturn. Couldn't get into the Dreamcast either.

IMO Dreamcast is the "king", but Saturn is cool too.
