>Within the first 24 hours, we took more paid preorders than our entire annual forecasted volume of the Neo Geo AES+. Since then, sales have continued strongly through our own channels, online retailers, and specialist stores. Seeing the console currently ranked #1 on Amazon US across the entire Video Games category is both humbling and deeply inspiring. The team are now updated our production forecasts ahead of the launch Nov 12."has the needle moved?
If it's actually hardware based and not a bait and switch it's the most affordable Neo Geo ever.
>>737591004Good god I hope Sega fucking sees this shit and actually goes for a console revival.
>>737591115It's another FPGA box, this time with a Neo Geo shell.
>>737591750No it's not.
Neogeo crowd is pretty crazy, but hey what does it matter
>>737591612they're too retarded for that. they've learned to stay in their IQ lane over the years, business-wise.
For the first time in history the neo geo is affordable.
>>737591750Even if it were an FPGA, it would still be a step up from those terrible mini consoles that were released with totally fucked-up emulation.
>>737592000trips confirms it unfortunately.. for me, just delusional wishful thinking
>>737591750FPGA is fine.
Street Fighter Minus One for Neo Geo AES+Six buttons as usual, making use of the AES's extended button capabilities seen in the Mah-Jong Controller.The game is an expanded remake of Street Fighter One.Original cast returns, plusMike HaggarBlack WidowLia Loa (a polynesian hard rocker chick with a bad attitude)Urath'e (a twisted and mysterious shamaness from Canada, with bizarre powers)Q
Whats the appeal? Does it just emulate Neogeo games?
>>737591830yeah bro its legit hardware components from the 90s they dug up in an old warehouse
>>737593783It's a brand new remanufactured Neo Geo console. No emulation. It takes the knowledge gained from creating the FPGA cores for Mister, and then the money and original design documents and schematics from SNK, as well as probably a fresh decapping and scanning of the Neo Geo's original ASIC. This is all used to recreate the original Neo Geo ASIC (which you could consider to its "GPU") as closely as possible, and then manufacture a new ASIC for a new set of consoles (the rest of the Neo Geo is off-the-shelf parts you can still buy today). If done right, the result should be 99.999% accurate to the original console. I won't say 100% because there's always the unknown, but for all practical purposes it is a 1:1 recreation.
>>737593997New games from that era made to work on real hardware--mite b cool.
>>737593973I told you Sony was releasing brand new PS1 games for $5 each, but they were actually burned onto ultra-long-life M-Discs rather than stamped like the originals, would you consider them "legit" PS1 game releases?
enjoy your "system accurate" 5FPS slideshow slowdowns while real fbneo chads emulate at 144fps lmao losers
>>737594187The AES+ includes an overclock function to get rid of the slowdown in games like that.So...your response?
>>737594452>So...your response?contra mogs
>>737594495I agree, Metal Slug is overrated.Did you expect that?
>>737591115if it's not emu then how are they going to distribute the games? are they remanufacturing those as well or is this going to be collector bullshit
>>737594117Schizoid
>>737595003They are already releasing a set of them for $90 each, also the cheapest they ever been.
>>737595003as far as i know they're manufacturing the launch games. maybe more later who knows
>>737593528>capturd just HAS to make it about street fighter in an SNK discussion as usual
>>737594452Go fuck yourself nerd
>>737596501>Go fuck yourselfTrust me I WOULD if I could
>>737591612God, I want a Saturn revival so fucking bad. There’s so many shmup kinos that I refuse to pay $200 for. Also, Panzer Dragoon Saga.
>>737597250how good are the ports though?
>>737597250You'd have emulated all of these games 2 decades ago if you really wanted to play them.
>>737597250One potential advantage of a new Saturn would be the release of hundreds of translated games originally exclusive to Japan.
>>737597386>emulatedSaturn emulation is still ass and will never beat actually playing on original hardware on your tv. Not to mention physical copies will always mog the absolute shit out of some soulless rom list. But emulator zoomers/thirdies will NEVER understand this.
>>737591004consume
>>737597558>Dodonpachi>Radiant Silver Gun>battle Garegga>psychic killer Taromaru (costs thousands of dollars lol)>Elevator Action ReturnsWould unironically better than anything released on a modern console and it’s not even close.
>>737597587>Saturn emulation is still assretard
>>737597756>I have zero standards and never actually played a saturn back in the dayEmulatorfags are literally soulless golem.
>>737597925>>737597587>emulation is BAD that is why I don't emulate and why I want to BUY a dedicated box that emulates all the games I could have emulated all alongIt's a special kind of retardation
>>737597925on the contrary, emulatorchads seek a superior experience the original system cannot provide.
>>737598040This lolNot even a real saturn. You're just literally paying for a emulator box and still saying emulation badRetards.
>>737598040AES plus isn’t emulation according to them. It’s the reason everyone is actually excited for it, while mini consoles got rightfully shit on. It’s almost like people know emulation is just a half assed imitation that will never beat the real thing. If you ever “beat” a game on an emulator then you did not play the real thing. It’s like putting on a powdered wig and saying that you experienced the American Revolution.
>>737598238>accordingThe sky isn't blue either.Words are cheap faggot. As far as I'm concerned it's still just emulation. And cope. Everything you played is emulated.
>>737598238What the fuck happened to zoomers that they're scared of emulation?Same thing with Switch owners.>EMULATION BAD>EMULATION UGHHH!!!But then they proceed to pay for emulation on a subscription basis. Explain it to me. I really don't understand it.
>>737598382Modern zoomers are scared of emulation. Or they'll cope and say "W-Well nintendo emulators ARE OKAY AND BETTER"Rember, zoomers don't even know how to open a folder. They don't even know WHAT a folder is.
>>737598382>Emulation for free on the PC you already own = bad>Emulation on a dedicated box that costs money either for the hardware, the service or both = good
>>737594187>boomers "collectors"
>>737598382>zoomersImagine calling me a zoomer while defending something that doesn’t play like it did on original hardware. Zoomers are the biggest emulatorfags. It’s why everyone getting excited for the AES plus are dudes that are 40+. Those of us that grew up with these consoles know what a shit replacement emulation is.>>737598296Here is a crazy thought, if they’re lying and it’s just an emulator in a box then I won’t buy it. Same would go for any hypothetical Saturn rerelease.
>>737597587You didn't even argue against the point.If you really wanted to play it you could have emulatied them years ago. You could have gotten a used saturn and modded it to play burned disc if you wantedYou don't care about the games. You just want to be a poser. When the real answers were there all these years. Get the fuck out of my hobby. you fucking poser.
>>737598660>Get the fuck out of my hobby. you fucking poser.this
>>737598642>. It’s why everyone getting excited for the AES plus are dudes that are 40+More like it's another shitskin scam for idiot boomers with too much money who will only play Metal slug and KoF
>>737598494>let me make up a scenario that doesn’t exist to get mad about (who the fuck actually defends subscribing to play roms?)Not on original hardware hooked to a crt? You haven’t actually experienced the game. Period.
>>737598660>>737598709Same fucking faggot emulator zoomer. How does it feel knowing I played a Saturn when it came out and your only memories of one are some half assed imitation of one that you played on your poverty box? I bet you think watching a playthrough on youtube counts as playing a game too. Pathetic.
>>737591004Passing on the system and games, but I ordered a white AES controller (I already have an OG black one).
why do emulatorfags get so ass mad when someone tells them that they prefer original hardware? at this point emulatorfags just emulate as a point of pride not necessity. the idea of someone playing on og hardware is almost an affront to them. you see these same “people” constantly seething at people with large collections on /vr/. must be a poverty thing. i’m glad i still have all of my old consoles. with that said aes plus sounds too good to be true. i’m not convinced it’s not emulation.
>>737599561>that they prefer original hardware?This is not original hardware.
>>737599668probably. i doubt they pull it off. but you have to understand that on /vr/ even playing on og hardware and having a large physical collection often gets you shit on by rabid emulatorfags. i can only imagine out of jealousy. like i said i believe it’s a poverty and age thing. they know they missed out those gaming eras so they have to convince themselves that they’ve had the “superior” experience. they’ll list features that emulators can use to “enhance” their experience. which again shows that they don’t actually like retro games and need to modernize them enough for their modern palettes. there’s definitely a few of those fags in this thread. i recognize their assmad posting styles.
>>737599561How do I know that you aren't secretly the one who is ass mad?
>>737600180yep, i'm one of them. sorry, but i need more than what the original hardware can offer. this is non-negotiable.
>>737600180>there’s definitely a few of those fags in this thread. i recognize their assmad posting styles.Actual schizophrenia
>>737597729what kind of retard who would want to play these saturn versions instead of the m2 ports or emulating the arcade versions
