Every Official Neo Geo Game Released

[@GameSack]

What's your favorite Neo Geo game? Why do you like that one the most? Do you have a least favorite? What makes it worse than the rest?

[@worsel555]

Making us pick only one? Oh man...for me it's gotta be Garou: Mark of The Wolves simply because that lived in my MVS 2 Slot machine for so long. Second pick would be Neo Turf Masters, the other one that stayed in my machine a long time.

[@SeveredLegs]

Best games for me: Garou, Neo Turf Masters, KOF 2002, RBFF2, Last Blade 1, Ba-Ba-baseball Baseball Stars 2, probably others, but definitely not Legend of Success Joe.

The Neo Geo was like a Megalodon: an awesome creature that existed in a time we could not really appreciate it for what it was.

[@RetroRuss]

Just like the Dreamcast.

[@sash-oo5183]

Because of bad advertising, all friends were blown away when I showed them the actual graphics & games. But it was affordable compared to the Neo Geo. I couldn’t even afford one game back in the days. It was a price of one or two consoles.😅 I still have some old video game magazines with marked price offers inside. A never ending wishlist. ^^

[@TXFDA]

Might not have helped that it was expensive as hell to buy games for it. Luckily emulation exists nowadays and I can just have the entire NEGEO library on my Xbox.

[@markg5480]

People were only drawn to the NeoGeo because they loved the idea of having literal arcade games in their homes. That's it. Game-wise, the early batch of NeoGeo games were average at best. In 1990 / 1991, people were going wild for SF2, The Simpsons, Turtles, X-Men, and Wrestlefest. People realised that if they did shell out for a NeoGeo then they'd be at the mercy of SNK, and instead of getting to play the massive arcade hits by Capcom, Konami and Sega, we'd be getting unpolished, stiff turds from SNK.

[@marceltiel7919]

I could not appreciate it becus it was sooo expensive and in my home town there literaly was only one single gameshop that sold it

[@FurryRedCross]

Since you asked, Joe, I did watch this in one sitting but skipped over some fatal fury/samsho/metal slug as I have collections on other platforms. Bravo as always for showing the entire library on actual hardware.

is this on actual hardware? that must have cost tens of thousands of dollars

[@andrewglazier8940]

Neo Geo MVS and Capcom CPS-1 games are the pinnacle of 2D arcade goodness. I just love the color and detailed graphics of these games. Some of my favorites Neo Geo games are Shock Troopers, Metal Slug Series, Samurai Shodown II, Crossed Swords II, and Real Bout Fatal Fury Special. I didn't think I would watch this episode in one sitting, but I sat here with a couple cups of coffee on the couch and made it! Great episode!

[@Aaron-Magica17]

IronClad was actually originally going to be an MVS/AES game, with prototype roms existing, but said release was cancelled and development shifted to the CD. In fact, the Wii VC release of Ironclad is based on the unreleased prototype!

I remember being 8 or 9 years old and saving money from recycling aluminum cans, pulling weeds, raking grass, baling hay, etc., to buy a NeoGeo after seeing it on Video Power or some show like that.

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

Thanks for covering the whole NeoGeo library and updating me on some recommendations! I know most of them have been ported to Switch and Playstation 4 by Hamster Co. under the Arcade Archive series. I think there's just over 100 on the Switch, since they've released one per week over the course of two years. So I think if getting an actual NeoGeo with individual games is too much hassle, then this method is the way to go since it's cheaper, doesn't require old hardware and can be played on the go if you buy them on the Switch.

[@Timeforceletsgo]

Game sack is like a warm cozy blanket on a cold day. Just feels sooooo good.

[@mrdeatheli]

A truly epic undertaking, sir! I'm in my early 40s and the Neo Geo has always been mysterious in a way, even though I can emulate all of it, it's nice to see this rundown on the catalog. I truly feel like I accomplished something by watching this video. A humbling sense of closure, as stupid as it sounds, it is. Thank you for your hard work!

[@skins4thewin]

Neo Turf Masters will forever be one of my favorite Arcade games. My god is that game fun! I still play it to this day & there's a Facebook group dedicated to Tournaments that happen seasonally where you simply have to take a screenshot of your best score each week, with each week being dedicated to one of the four courses. It's super fun & I definitely suggest fans of the game to check it out!

I think there were 1 or 2 that I haven't seen in this presentation that I might like and haven't played yet.

Fun fact with King of Fighters, it not only had Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting characters but Psycho Soldier and Ikari Warriors characters as well. It's pretty cool since Smash Bros took the same concept of a big company crossover fighting game a couple of years later. Also, there's a character named Maxima that's featured in many of the King of Fighters games is based on the character Maxima from Robo Army.

[@MH-ye1ku]

Blue's Journey/Raguy is a very decent platformer, cheerful music, cute story, maybe the inspiration behind mini mario? I've played through the game's routes multiple times. Magician Lord is a little dragged down by spamming you with bullet shooting enemies and a lot more masochistic hit detection with no hit cooldown whatsoever, meaning a single enemy is capable of hitting you over and over until you die but I can get through a few levels on memory alone. Still, it's so visually impressive and the music is so good I see why it was picked as the pack in title. Out of the two ADK platformers, I'd say play both but expect Magician Lord to kick your butt.

[@MatSpeedle]

Epic episode Joe, the amount of effort in putting this all together is just mind blowing! Fantastic work. Thank you!

[@HarryZontal]

Fantastic episode, Joe! I remember back in the day we all lusted after a Neo Geo AES! We all had Sega Megadrives or SNES; no-one had an AES. I would lust after the games in magazines like Gamesmaster and Edge. I knew they were too expensive for me to ever afford, but the Neo Geo CD was the answer! My parents bought me one for Chrsitmas and I utterly loved it! Sure, some of the loading times were annoying, but it was a small price to pay for me to play Neo Geo. Once I got a job I could afford an AES and bought lots of games; thankfully quite a few of the better games were quite cheap. Which reminds me, since I haven't played it in over a decade, I should check which ones I have and their current prices! Ended up buying a consolized 1-slot MVS as well. There was somethig special about MVS carts - they were often a bit battered, half a label, slightly off-colour and smelt funny, but the fact that they could, or possibly did, get played in an actual arcade made them so special to me! I played games like Metal Slug on MVS since it was waaay cheaper than AES. My favourite games include: Viewpoint (amazing music), World Heroes (played it to death in the arcades when on holiday in North Wales), Samurai Shodown, Top Hunter, Baseball Stars 2, and the Metal Slug games.

[@Viddy22]

Joe this is just awesome. You always surpass yourself. I'm a huge fan of neogeo (had one back in the days with mutation nation, samurai spirits and aerofighters 2)and literally consumed it. But I drooled over every single game. The arcade feel was, and still is, totally unmatched. Awesome ride, I enjoyed every bit of it.

For Breakers, it was out pretty late at the end of the machine lifespan, and by this time, most third-party editor games were not released anymore in western countries.

[@shiningphantasy1393]

Got through this in one viewing; my nostalgic familiarity assisted with that. This console initially had a ton of wow factor but the lack of substance and diversity in genres across the software made it a very poor value proposition for the asking price. Magician Lord and Pulstar are probably my top games for the platform; some of the most absolute top-shelf of the fighting games also stand out. The remainder of the fighting games become very paint-by-numbers, lost in the shuffle, and there were way too many of them to learn and invest meaningful time into. Excellent video overview of the software library.

The Neo Geo blew my mind the first time I came across a two slot cabinet with Magician Lord and Fatal Fury. I found another cab at the mall with Super Spy and Nam 1975.
