The controller ports in my Dreamcast don't have the strongest connections these days having something like this would be PERFECT as they'd be plugged in at all times.
The Morph 4k isn't that much more, I fully plan on getting one of those if I ever upgrade to a 4k TV. I have several consoles the tink doesn't do justice to or I can't connect to the tink because of an HDMI output.
4 isn't well regarded by most but I think it's a pretty balenced entry too and 5 did a lot of fun things adding a slide and some new enemies. 6 just felt like they ported it from the Neo to the Atomiswave not much about it that didn't seem like it could've been on the Neo geo. 7 ehh, Double X is decent I've been playing it on XBOX lately.
The Dreamcast can play an overclocked CD version of Metal Slug 2 through that Neo4all emulator.
I almost bought an Evercade when I canceled my AES+ preorder. But
A) Those carts have the same problem the AES+ Carts have, that they're basically SD Cards and could lose data over time. Direct Sunlight is a deathknell.
B) Seems the whole Evercade model is based around FOMO and inflating the cart Value on the second hand market.
I pre-ordered on Amazon and won't move my pre-order elsewhere. I've waited Decades for this opportunity but I also don't want to piss money away on this either.
@RobertCop2 Art of Fighting 2 wasn't too bad in my ebay searches either.
I'm going to wait until I actually have the AES+ to actually buy any old carts off ebay it's still an investment and if they don't work I'll want to return them.
This is my last chance to own one. I'm preordering one when paid and I'm even looking at AES ebay listings. yeah some are stupid expensive but some Japanese carts aren't too bad. Samsho 2 and Fatal Fury Special.
I had a chance to buy a Neo Geo in 2002 but I was tricked into going on a trip to Florida. IN AUGUST when it's humid AF, with my cousins who endless argue, I almost got shot by a shady cab driver, the hotel was run down and shady, I think there was a body in the pool the night we checked in. No shuttle and there was over $500 I had to pay in unexpected expenses.
So yeah this is my retribution I CAN FINALLY get what was taken away and my cousin won't drag me to Florida this time. Mostly because they can't.

Does anyone actually care about a Gaelco collection?
I don't think anyone cared about Gaelco until people started to find their weird games through MAME.

Re: We're Closer Than Ever To Getting Capcom CPS3 Games On MiSTer
@nilcam I'm getting a 512 Flash drive.
Seems the storage crisis has impacted that market the least. Expensive but not the bloated prices those AI bastids have inflated everything else to.

Re: We're Closer Than Ever To Getting Capcom CPS3 Games On MiSTer
@nilcam Mostly getting it for Arcade cores, PC Engine, Neo Geo, a few handhelds and Japanese computers. I'm assuming there's an FM Towns core?
Re: We're Closer Than Ever To Getting Capcom CPS3 Games On MiSTer
Seems like I picked a good time to get a Mister.
But buying storage for all these cores and games is gonna be painful on my wallet.

Re: The Making Of: Metal Slug - "I Never Thought That It Would Have Sequels"
@h3s Metal Slug 6's Stand Alone PS2 port is pretty good.
I do have a dreamcast but no Dreamshell to play the atomiswave games on.
Re: The Making Of: Metal Slug - "I Never Thought That It Would Have Sequels"
@h3s 3's final level just keeps going.
4 isn't well regarded by most but I think it's a pretty balenced entry too and 5 did a lot of fun things adding a slide and some new enemies. 6 just felt like they ported it from the Neo to the Atomiswave not much about it that didn't seem like it could've been on the Neo geo. 7 ehh, Double X is decent I've been playing it on XBOX lately.
The Dreamcast can play an overclocked CD version of Metal Slug 2 through that Neo4all emulator.
Re: The Making Of: Metal Slug - "I Never Thought That It Would Have Sequels"
If I'm going to be 100% honest my favorite Metal Slug is the original. Not X or 3, the original.

Re: "Humbling And Deeply Inspiring" - Neo Geo+ Production Forecasts Increased After "Overwhelming" Response
@NeonPizza If you get a Japanese Cart Samsho shouldn't be too much.
Why Fatal Fury 2 when Special exists?
Start looking at Ebay listings, some AES carts aren't too bad.

which is fine, but I can emulate Neo Geo anywhere and there are plenty of PORTS of Neo Geo games elsewhere.
