I gave it to my little brother for safe keeping and he sold it off. now I wish I just pulled the board out of the machine and stuck it in a closet somewhere till the succubus was gone.
I'm sure turning an mvs into a console is cake now, but when i had my cabinet it was a messy DIY project.
I just did an ebay search, one slot boards are sub $50 but consolized stuff can get over 700 bucks. an aes and sticks can be had for 400 and that mvs to aes convertor is 300 ish... it almost seems like buying an aes, getting a convertor, and loading up on mvs games (when they should up at the right prices) is the way to go. it's nuts how a 25 year old console is still pulling half it's retail used. boxed stuff (still used) is double retail, i could only imagine what a sealed one goes for.

@retro junkie started talking about that weird 3ds game project x zone, and I decided to get 1 and 2. Somehow my closest GS had them both so I did the pick up in store option. I got the email that says we're searching for your item, and then hours later I got the email that says we've got your item ready for pick up. I get to the store, and the guy pulls one off the shelf and says he doesn't have the second one. I go back next day to talk to the manager and she's able to find the game, which was also on the shelf. I'd imagine theres some sort of push notification, email, smoke signal, something that alerts these stores to pull an item and ship or hold it... I'm imagining line level "clicks through" or whatever it takes to stop the reminders without actually performing the action.

Amazing support for one of their consoles. Virtual console should be transferable. It is the same as building a console with backward compatibility. At least that is the way I see it. But if you want to pump money out of your loyal fans...... you can make tons of money.

I'm still attempting to talk myself into getting another AES. The argument I keep tripping over goes something like this "an AES and 5 games I want or a PS2 and 500?" Granted, that's a lot of shovel ware but the 5 games I'd buy and the AES would cost about what the 500 ish ps2 games I don't have and want would cost.
You know me... I love the Neo Geo AES. I would look into a Neo Geo MVS. The games are WAY CHEAPER for the most part. Neo Geo AES games appear to have risen even more than they used to be. As much as I love the Neo Geo AES and the few games I have for it, I cannot recommend people to get back into it. I Will say this... If you do buy the AES, you probably will never lose money in it.
We need more Neo Geo topics...

« Last post by BLUEVOODU on November 14, 2018, 11:53:39 PM »SO @targetrasp … Gamestop dropped the ball on my Vita Axiom Verge. They never shipped from the other store and they have no clue as to what's going on. THANKFULLY... the website had them in stock for order from the website. They were NOT available online until I noticed today. I don't know what happened, but I have one on the way. So help me if this one does not come through... I'm probably going to punch puppies.

Nintendo - Switch, Wii U, and 3DS / Gris - Nintendo Switch - Launches December 13th
« Last post by BLUEVOODU on November 14, 2018, 11:48:10 PM »I noticed this on Nintendo's site. Gris - Indie game... and it looks really interesting and good. The sound is awesome (in the trailer)… and are is very cool. Hopefully the game play in actuality is as awesome as it looks:
Gorgeous indie game GRIS launches for Nintendo Switch on Dec. 13 - Nintendo.com
Check this trailer out... it looks really good! While I do not know a lot about the story of this game, I'd like to try it out and learn a bit more. Again... that Art style... and music...
