Did any one here ever own or know any one that had a Neo Geo? I only knew of its existence because it had a category on GameFAQs. Never saw one in real life back then.
do shoop da woop next
>>12548202Sure thing.
I never knew anyone with a Saturn, much less a NeoGeo.
My dad's friend Dominic had one, he was in the mob
>>12548331Makes sense as you would need mafia or cartel connections to afford one.
>>12548186That's definitely a guy.
>>12548321KILL YOURSELF AUSTER
>>12548396Oh yeah, Bridget needs to be in the rotation.
>>12548401What?
No.Only knew a guy with a Neo Geo CD but in the 2000s, and it didn't work
>>12548186>that pictureFuck I'm old.No, I never saw one in real life either, and I also only knew it existed because of GameFAQs and only because of GameFAQs. I don't remember even seeing it as a category on ROM sites back in the day.
>>12548520>I don't remember even seeing it as a category on ROM sites back in the day.you probably did, only it will have been listed under the arcade section, neo-geo is mainly known as an arcade platform. the home neo-geo system is technically the same hardware, though i don't believe there's any reason to use the home console version (AES) roms over the arcade version (MVS) roms
>>12548186Yes, I knew a fellow who owned a Neo Geo MVS cabinet around 2010.
Anyone who says "I never heard of a Neo Geo in the 90s" is telling you they were either a filthy casual who never opened a game magazine in their life, or an actual moron who just flipped past all the Neo advertisements without a single neuron activating in their brains.

>>12548543Or they lived in a small town where only Nintendo and Sega existed.
>>12548543i had no idea about the console, but i saw neo geo cabinets everywhere.
>>12548186>Never saw one in real life back then.Really? You might have without realizing it. Did you ever see an arcade cabinet with Bust a Move or Metal Slug while you were out? Then you've seen a Neo Geo MVS. Those were everywhere.I never knew anyone who owned the AES though. Personally, I have a Neo Geo CD now, but never owned it back in the day.
>>12548186Definitely never knew anyone that owned one, but we had a local video store that offered rentals. I also saw it at Toys R Us.
>>12548553Even if you lived in a larger city, it’s not like you could just walk into the local Target and find the AES and a bunch of games in stock. You either had to go to specialty retailers or mail order it.
>>12548572You obviously knew OP was talking about the AES, so what was the point of the first part of your post?
