 The SGX+SCD is a better investment than just buying a Duo or Duo-R and thinking about getting an SGX later.


A Supergrapfx+SuperCDROM costs like...$150-200+ *more* than a Duo R. Since there are only 6 SGX games, that means that in addition to the price of those games (not as cheap as far better SCDs) you are paying an extra $25-33 *per game* to have compatibility with each SGX title. Not even close to worth it. For that amount of cash you could just skip the SGX and have stuff like Drac X, Kaze Kiri, Star Parodia, and Syphia...or you could have a version of Makaimura that isn't even notably better than the version that runs on a $20 Genesis.

If the SGX had at least a Sega CD level of support, or even a 32x level of support, it would be worth it, but as it is none of the SGX games even crack the top 50 PCE titles, IMO.

Yes, its cheaper in the "long run", but that's assuming you ever decide you need SGX compatibility at all.

 Lies.... all lies! Seriously, you have some sort of grudge against the SGX or something? An SGX *is* a PCE. When you buy an SGX, you get PCE compatibility. It's worth it to play Aldynes, 1941, Ghouls and Ghosts. That is, if you're a die hard PCE fan. If not, then I can see if you don't care.

Whatever it is, talking about it here publically will probably only make him more upset/agitated.

OK, heading this off right here. If anyone acts like a jerk and raises your hackles, just ignore them. If they stop getting attention maybe they'll stop being a jerk. Reward good forum behavior and punish bad forum behavior. Period. This includes me. If I'm a jerk, head me off at the pass by NOT REWARDING ME.

No way, some of the best threads here have come from someone being a jerk.

As a longtime Neo-geo.com guy, none of this phases me.

Regarding SGx+SCD2 vs. DuoR, the difference is probably around the $100 +/- $20 like t_t said.  Both parts around $125 isn't too big a stretch to find.  And I honestly think Granzort is worth playing for at least a little while.

Im pretty confident most people think im A jerk.I don`t care though,I just speak whats on my mind.And so should everybody else.Who says we all have to be friends in here.The Super Grafx would definitely be worth owning,if the infamous Strider would of been released.That and if you can pick it up for the same price as a core grafx unit,Than it would be worth owning.Does anybody no of any other game that where supposed to be released for the Super Grafx?.
