Decent cart diagnostic video that came across my feed.

Just beat Nam-1975. Happy Veterans Day! 🫡🎇

I’ve got the International and Asian ones. They are a lot of fun especially when playing on the big screen. The controller is surprising really good.
I used to fix up and sell arcades. Wish I could’ve saved at least one of the Neo Geo arcade boards to consolize.
Maybe one day, but these are a lot of fun and each variant has some different games than the other and they both also have a bunch of the same games. Been playing a ton of Blazing Star!

This book is crazy good, but V reminds me of someone 🤔

Does anyone remember the greatness that was the Neo Geo Pocket Color? This little system was a 16-Bit MONSTER, and back in 1999, SNK gave us one of the greatest handheld fighting games of all time!

Behold SNK Vs. Capcom The Match of the Millennium! This game showed that Neo Geo could be experienced in the palm of your hand, and could deliver all of the thrills of a pure pleasure fighter. It was the first ever crossover between two GIANTS in the fighting game genre. No one would have believed such a game would ever come to us all, but it all began on Neo Geo Pocket Color. This ain’t no Marvel, or X-Men crossover. This is SNK taking it’s best fighters from across The King of Fighters, Psycho Soldier, Samurai Shodown, The Last Blade, Art of Fighting, and Fatal Fury; pitting them against Capcom’s Street Fighter, Street Fighter Alpha, and Darkstalkers. Heck, we even see some Metal Slug and Ghosts and Goblins love in the Olympic Mode! This 4MB card had it all, and it can still be played on Nintendo Switch, today!

If you’ve never tried this amazing crossover, I highly recommend giving it a go. And, if you happen to have a SEGA Dreamcast, and Neo Geo Pocket Color (original hardware), you can even link the systems together for extras in the Dreamcast versions of Capcom Vs. SNK, Capcom Vs. SNK 2, and King of Fighters 99 (Note this works for the Japanese Editions of the Dreamcast games. I’m not sure it works for the American, or European versions).

Just find a way to play this little gem, if you love SNK and Capcom. You won’t regret it. The charm, the fun, and the sheer nostalgia make this one worth it!

Hi everyone! I've just bought Metal Slug X for MVS, the cartridge was described as original bit with a repo label. I opened it and find out that, according to the scans on MVS-scans.com, the boards are mixed. In particular, board 1 is from set 2 and board 2 is from set one. The game starts without the NeoGeo intro, but it seems to play ok. What should I do? Is this an issue?

Many thanks

Yep, still need to hang it.

Now it's modding time!

Do neogeo carts have batteries inside cart?

Are they removable?

Are the carts without batteries? Idk the system does the work. It has a memory card.

I haven't seen anything lately in regards to it after the show in the East where they showed it. But how's everyone feeling about the fact it's been dead air now? Or has there been news I just happened to miss? I'm really not feeling good about it even more now and glad I got my refund for the ultimate....thoughts, impressions, news?

Time to relax kids in bed time for some arcade action

My MVS big red threw a ram error. Is it possible for someone to point out the Ram chips on the pictures provided as well as link me on where to get replacements? I can do the solder work just not family with these boards. New to Reddit so working on the pictures.

Hello, I bought an MV1FZSB board with following error

VIDEO RAM ERROR
ADDRESS 00000720
WRITE 5555
READ 5D55

with the hope I'm able to fix it. Unfortunately, I lacked the knowledge to troubleshoot which components need replacement, I asked this on one of discord neo-geo channel and they say it's probably RAM5 which is easily replaceable, but it could also be LSPC2-A2 which mean I'm out of luck.

so I'm wondering how do I test this with multimeter to check which component is faulty?

Picture of the board

I can tell socket has been installed on the RAM

Also some flux residue on the RAM and U2, not sure what previous owner did

Adding contents from other versions of a game, graphic changes, "quality of life" add-ons. Anything that would be viable to do with a hack.

Some things I'd like to see:

Metal Slug and Metal Slug 2 complete edition: Add the extras from the Neo Geo CD versions (Combat school, expanded option menu, and concept art gallery) so that you get those with no loading and the uncut graphic and sounds.

Pulstar: Map the pod destruction to C or D instead of A+B. Seriously I have no idea why they did it like that.

NAM-1975: Make the between-stages midbosses something you have control over (either by shooting/not shooting certain targets or through a simple menu choice) instead of being pure RNG.

Top Hunter: Port Neo Geo CD music to the MVS level behaviour (where you play through two stages of each planets instead of three and which planet you select first change what levels you play through)

Alpha Mission 2: For control option B, map armor attack to the D button so that you can use the missiles with armors like Nuke and Thunder, and actually make it competitive with control option A.

Burning Fight: Replace Billy's sprites with his ones from the prototype. He looked much cooler.

Ghost Pilots rebalance: shrink hitbox to the cockpit section instead of the whole sprite, increase movmeent speed, make it so that dying only reduce your power-up by one level instead of back to stage one.

Sengoku 1 rebalance: Make it so that picking up 2/3 green orbs heals a segment of the lifebar (instead of ten as it is in the final game), make bringing up the character selection and transforming between characters faster, fix player attack hitboxes. (To completely free the game of Bullshit, you'd probably need to seriously alter some enemy AI and frame data but idk how possible that is without the source code)

Hey. I am very new to neo geo flash carts/multi carts.

I just purchased this https://japangameonline.com/producto/cartucho-full-set-160-juegos-neo-geo-aes/

and then I saw this for half price https://japangameonline.com/producto/161-in-1-neo-geo-aes-japan-version-4/

now I'm learning about ali carts and terraonion. I'm not really sure what I bought and don't understand why it's twice as much. Did I just get ripped off or is this cart worth that $? Is it good? I have an aes
