Forget about multi game cartridges, although tempting I've heard about issues with them (or correct me if I am wrong) forget about AES alltogether. Get a simple cheap cab. You might want to throw some new Japanese sticks and buttons in, the monitor should be 100% though And then get a 2 slot or 4 slot or even 6 slot motherboard and some MVS games on ebay. They're cheap. Start with Garou and take it from there. Please don't tell me you do not have 1 square meter of space to put the cab somewhere.
It is great, you walk whenever to the machine. Flip one switch (that is great!) and within 10 seconds you are selecting your favorite character!
Flip the power switch again and you're done! Actually I am now the one who does not have any space anymore. I use my Wii for all my emulation. It's just perfect and an awesome console once you unlock it and use it for Homebrew. Neo Geo plays great. You can use the classic controller or the Wiimote.
With most emulators you turn the Wiimote sideways so it's not as akward and the controls are already mapped to it. You can even have two players etc with another controller.
The Nunchuck acts like a faux analog/arcade stick. It's saved me alot of money than buying the real hardware or building an arcade cabinet.

I know some carts fetch several hundreds of dollars, and I can't see myself paying that on a per game basis. I know that MVS carts are a cheaper alternative and require an adapter, and I also know there are multi-game carts out there.
Perhaps there are also some flashable carts or something? If you wanted to get going with a Neo Geo on a budget (a bit of an oxymoron, I know), what would you recommend? Try and get an AES, and get some cheap games!
They're not all Metal Slug money. =) You can find fun and high quality games for $25 on ebay or craigslist. I love playing Burning Fight, a solid beat 'em up, and I picked it up for a song.
Save up some more and get an adapter if you really need to play Metal Slug on original hardware. I own an AES with an MVS converter and a CD system. I used to play the AES all the time and play with the converter alot, but I found a mame program with all the neo geo games loaded in it, so thats where I play my neo geo games now.I can hook it to any monitor and the play is the same.great system, but cant pony up the funds.Over the last 20 years I have only found about 50 games for all three systems.reasonably priced.
My last Neo Aes Japan game cost me 65$ Price of a new ps3 game or x360 game. The best option, for the cost concerned consumer (alliteration!), is a Supergun and a MVS board. The Supergun could be used for other arcade systems down the line, but if you're not interested in that, consolized boards are oh-so-beautiful. Ignore the advise to get an AES.
Sure, not all games for AES are expensive, but almost none of them are any cheaper and some of the best games are cost prohibitive. Not to mention a number of games aren't available for AES. Neo Geo CD is an option, and offers better sound for many games, but many purists prefer not to deal with the loading times. It also suffers from quite a few releases that aren't available for the CD system, though it also has a few exclusives (the most popular of which have finally been made available to MVS and AES conversions).
MVS is definitely the way to go for the true arcade experience. I've been doing a lot of reading up on the topic as well over the last month. Although I haven't pulled the trigger yet, my plan is to get an JP Neo Geo AES. The selection of JP games is better then the US and they are almost all cheaper and more readily available. Since I'd be purchasing it primarily for fighting games I figure I don't need English carts. I almost purchased a 6 slot MVS CAB with 9 games for $500 but upon inspecting the machine the monitor was really messed up.
Those cabs are very large. Unless another MVS cab shows up in the next few months is great condition I'm probably gonna go JP AES.

It's true that the AES games aren't getting any cheaper, even with emulation/digital re-release making it easier to play classics RIGHT NOW (See: Marvel Vs Capcom 2). I consider this a good thing; its nice to know the game I spend $65 on today, will be worth about the same or even more in the future.
There's nothing wrong with posting news here, since it gives us a chance to talk about it here. I'm just saying that none of the news MB posts lasts very long, so maybe making a perpetual thread would give it some longevity.
And I wasn't thinking that the title had to be perpetual or anything, just that MB would keep posting new news to it. And the rest of us too, I guess, though MB is pretty much the only one posting news. Quote: Hopefully the big rush to get System 22 and 21 roms ripped will finish soon.

I've grabbed what is supposedly a 'good set' of it, but how can anyone make a 'good set' when there's no emulator to test it on anyway?

I have been cruising the newsgroups for a while now and no luck. I checked again this morning too. As for the ripping bit, that is pretty easy for the most part. For boards that support socketed ROMs (virtually everything up until about 5-7 years ago) you just pull the chips and put them into a ROM burner. As for Sega System 24 support, that is supposedly part of the MAME Dev team's massive rewrite and merge of the 16-bit Sega drivers. Unfortunately the project has an ETA of years.

Yeah, I know, I've seen the MAME WIP page taunting me with screenshots of Hot Rod for quite a while. But really, if they're not finished, how could anyone verify a set of Roms?
This is somewhat old news, but here it goes anyway: Metal Slug 4 has been dumped and emulated. You must use Nebula v2.17 or v2.18a in order for it to work, and you'll have to include the neogeo.rom, ng-lo.rom, ng-sfix.rom and ng-sm1.rom files in the zipped rom if it doesn't have them. You also have to put the Metal Slug 4 DAT file in the ROMDATA folder. Now, if you guys don't want this thread to be closed, you'll be smart and either google for it yourselves or ask me further questions regarding this issue by mail.
'The higher energy videogame system.' The TurboGrafx-16, known as PC Engine in Japan, was a console developed by and sold by NEC that was released first in Japan in and in North America in 1989. Far more successful in Japan than it ever was elsewhere. Its mascot character was, or PC Genjin in Japan where the name was a clear pun on the system's name.
The most unique characteristic of the system was that the games did not come on bulky plastic cartridges but rather on thin TurboChips (HuCards in Japan), plastic game cards with connectors clearly visible on the end. Yes indeed, the system did not sell very well in North America, competing as it did with massively successful and contemporaries. However its game library's inclusion on the has lit the fires of nostalgia in the hearts of the few gamers who played and loved the thing, as well as introducing these old gems to a newer audience. The system was, however, extremely popular in Japan, outselling the original Famicom for a while. In fact, it was this success which, in conjunction with the success of the in the U.S. Moondru mudichu shakthi tv last episode. And Europe (where, as in Japan, it was known as the Sega Mega Drive), is what forced Nintendo to jumpstart development of the in the first place. It was particularly favored for, and many of the produced for the system offered a narrow-screen 'arcade mode' that distorted the aspect ratio to make the graphics seem even more arcade-like.
Like all the venerable systems, this one had a few add-ons of its own. One, the Multitap (a.k.a. Turbo Tap), was a connector for up to five controllers; since the TurboGrafx, unlike its competitors, only had one built-in controller port, this was necessary to enable multi-player in games that supported them. Another was the TurboGrafx-CD (PC Engine CD-ROM 2 System) expansion, which opened more possibilities for the game library, especially with the Super System Card. The CD attachment was very successful in Japan, where it helped prolonged the lifespan of the system, but not so much elsewhere, to the point that. NEC later released the Turbo Duo, a TurboGrafx console with a built-in CD-ROM drive along with extra RAM and updated BIOS from the Super System Card. The American release is infamous for its advertising campaign,.
You can read the comics in their entirety as well as more info One of the extensions of the PC Engine that was only released in Japan was the SuperGrafx, which added an extra video chip and more RAM to the core hardware. The hardware revision was a complete failure, only having five games exclusively released for it. Slightly more successful was the Arcade Card, released in 1994 in a late attempt to upgrade the capacities of the system; it was mostly noted for ports of games. Finally, in the portable market, TurboGrafx had a clear advantage thanks to its slim game cards. The TurboExpress handheld console (PC Engine GT in Japan) was able to use exactly the same cards as the main console, so that it was essentially a small, portable TG16 with a screen attached.
Yes it was heavy, and yes it was a battery-guzzler, but it still was nice to have a lot of those games on the go. Specs: Processors:. 8-bit Hudson Soft HuC6280 that is based on the MOS Technology 6502. It runs at a maximum 7.16Mhz, although games could switch it down to 3.58Mhz or 1.79Mhz; most HuCard games run at 3.58Mhz to avoid overheating the system (as the Japanese PC Engine was quite small), though it runs at full speed for CD games. The actual graphics are generated by two interlocked 16-bit. These GPUs lacked special effects like multiple backgrounds and translucency that competing 16-bit console GPUs were able to do, but they could easily fill the screen with loads of sprites and one background.
One of the GPUs is a video display controller, while the other is a video color encoder. Memory:. 8 KB of upgradable main in the base model. 64 KB of main in the TurboGrafx-CD add-on. 64 KB of. Games on HuCards could be up to 2.5 MB.
SuperGrafx has 32 KB of main, and 128 KB of Video. The Super System Card beefs up the 64KB of main memory included in the TurboGrafx-CD to 256KB (included by default on the TurboDuo). The Arcade Card, required for Arcade CD-ROM 2 discs, was released in two versions:. The Arcade Card Duo, for the Super CD-ROM 2 and Duo consoles, adds 2MB.
The Arcade Card Pro, for the original CD-ROM 2 System, adds 2MB from the Arcade Card Duo and the 256KB from the Super System Card. Sprites:. 64 sprites on screen (128 for the SuperGrafx), with 16 single-width sprites per scanline. Sprite size is a minimum of 16x16 and a maximum of 32x64. Display:. Resolution is variable, but most games ran at 256x240.
One background layer (two on the SuperGrafx) composed of 8x8 tiles. 512 total colors, but the sprite layer and the background layer each could have up to 241 at once (the two background layers on the SuperGrafx shared those). Connects to monitors using an RF modulator; the CoreGrafx and Turbo Duo models dropped this in favor of composite video. (SATIRE) however, it was never used in any retail software due to the system's bombing.

Advertising campaigns showing that its CD-ROM add-on predated the Sega CD, while true, failed to convince most of the American consumers to support this console.: The TurboExpress. It was a handheld version of the TurboGrafx-16 in full color, capable of playing virtually all the HuCards, and it even supported multiplayer.
Unfortunately, its ambitious novelty was quickly negated by very obvious hardware problems; the early LCD screens were highly prone to pixel failure, and sound failure was very common due to cheap capacitors. The tiny screen made it very hard to read game text (a deal breaker for RPG fans), and it needed a whopping six AA batteries for three hours of play time. And the aforementioned multiplayer was usually restricted to one screen, with very few games designed to take advantage of the co-op possibilities allowed by the Turbo Link cable.: The PC Engine shares its name with the OS of the NEC PC-88VA, a model of their PC-8800 range of PCs also launched in 1987.
The two platforms are otherwise unrelated.: Most of the system's later titles (as well as the Arcade Card upgrade) were not released outside Japan due to the TG16's failure in the United States. A few games, such as Bomberman '94 and Snatcher, ended up being ported to the Genesis/Sega CD for. The Turbo Duo, essentially a TurboGrafx-16 with built-in CD-ROM drive and the upgraded RAM and BIOS required to run Super CD-ROM 2 discs, was a last ditch attempt to revitalize interest in the system in North America with little success. The PC Engine had even more hardware variations and configurations in addition to the original white console.
Enough to rival the Mega Drive's. These include:. The CoreGrafx - A black recolor which also replaced the original model's RF output with composite A/V.
The CoreGrafx II - Functionally identical to the original CoreGrafx, but has a different color scheme that matches the updated Super CD-ROM 2 disc drive released at the same time. The Shuttle - A less-expensive alternative to the CoreGrafx without the CD-ROM expansion slot aimed at kids. The SuperGrafx - An enhanced model with an extra CPU and video RAM that only had five exclusive games. The PC Engine GT - The Japanese counterpart to the TurboExpress. The PC Engine LT - Which has a flip style similar to the later-released Game Boy Advance SP and could support the CD-ROM add-ons.
