WTB: Neo Geo AES or MVS System

[stinkoman]

Looking for an AES with a couple games or a consolized MVS.

You could send an email to jamma nation X for a cmvs, he custom makes them based on what options you need.

AES stuff is getting VERY expensive at the moment.  You really have to search and be willing to pay a lot to get a AES systems.  MVS is much simpler still.  Look into a CMVS and a Multicart, that'll hold you off for a while.

Excellent! Sounds like a good time to sell my lovely old low-serial-number AES to a "collector".

Although I really should plug in Viewpoint one-last-time.

You really have to be...dumb...honestly, to get into AES at this point. Ten years ago it was a rich idiots game, now it's just idiots period. The only lure (supposedly) of the much more expensive AES is that it's so exclusive and exciting and "I always wanted one back in the day" and all that f*cktarded superficial horseshit, but with pirate carts showing up all over the place now you're essentially paying a premium for a level of exclusivity you can't even rely on. I suppose you could limit yourself to games so worthless that nobody would ever pirate them...but do you need to blow hundreds of bucks to play 3 Count Bout?

That, and with the amount of modification needed to get decent video and two good sticks with an AES is pretty silly. Even if you are one of those guys who's occasionally asking here about how to get the non-f*cked up version of Metal Slug on their POS multi-cart, you're still going to need a Neo Bitz/JROK, a UniBIOS, and some parts for sticks. You might as well invest that into a CMVS by any measure.

I got me a low serial number unit too.  I'd love a copy of Viewpoint if you are that tired of it.

I got a stack of 12 NOS US AES Games for $22 each game back in 07.  I slowly built my collection to a meager 35 Games and I love the system really.  I got my AES for cheap BITD as well.  No special Video mods needed, just a Scart Lead and RGB goodness.  I did install the Multibios but it is so worth it.

If you really want pick up a CD system, yeah those loading times but you can simply burn every game from the beginning ending with KOF99 (Unplayable but hey it's free!!!!!).

Cheaper carts can be found, I found 6 on my trip and they were ALL in Brick and Mortar Video Games stores.  It's a hard system to collect for as every game is collectible and worth something.  Just stay away from eBay madness for sure.

jesus, you are so chad.

The Neo Geo X Gold system is an option too. You can still get one and deck it out with roms for under $200. It does have a few drawbacks but cost is certainly not one of them.

[SignOfZeta]

Please don't joke. This is adults talking here.

[slinkyturd]

What? It's no better or worse than an everdrive.

You're having a laugh? Right?

Comparing Everdrive/SD carts and emulators like the NGX are like comparing a shit and a shovel. If you want to play NeoGeo roms, a NGX is probably one of the last options I would take.

On topic - If you're a member over on the Neo Geo forums that's your best bet. I landed a nice example, low serial number AES about 6 months ago. Initially started a thread for a price check on a boxed AES, some guy posted a reply with a photo of four boxed systems sat in his wardrobe so I had my pick.

Yes...but n-g folks are a special clique. You think PCFX members are brash, opinionated a$$holes, wait till you read these guys threads.

Are you just getting interested in Neo or is this a replacement? I went MVS (cab) route myslef, over the years I've acquired a few carts, all loose, some boots. Sold and traded some turds.

Not a Neo Geo guy.. what is the significance of a low serial?

The lower serial numbers have better RGB output, there's a rough bracket knocking about that groups the quality of the RGB output opposed to the composite output.

It's rated something like:

0-85000 | RGB - A, Composite - C
85000 - 130000 | RGB - B, Composite - B
130000 - >190000 | RGB - C, Composite - A

Those numbers are made up but you get the general idea, higher serial number means better quality composite, worse RGB which means you'll likely need an RGB amp or pass through if using RGB with a high s/n AES.
