Underrated Neo Geo Games [MORE GAMES!!]

[@bananonymouslastname5693]

Neo Geo is an odd one in that for people who are into the system, there really aren't hidden gems, whereas for someone new to it, like 75% of the library would seem like hidden gems, pretty much anything not KOF or Metal Slug.

LOVE Nightmare in the Dark. Beautiful art, fantastic single-screen arcade game. One of my favorites on the platform. Blazing Star is great, too.

[@MadPanicGaming]

It's definitely awesome, glad I finally got around to playing it

[@HansBoopie]

I keep on hoping somebody gets the license sorted out and ports it to modern systems! I’d love a physical Switch release.

[@HansBoopie]

It’s a fighting game, but Ninja Masters on the Neo Geo is pretty fun and I don’t see it get talked about much.

[@julianocs87]

Savage Reign and that Double Dragon fighting game were kinda popular in arcades here in Brazil.

[@pacificdash]

Bonus! I feel like Blazing Star gets plenty of love in the shmup community, but then again we’re the smallest community in all of gaming 😂

[@MadPanicGaming]

Among shmup enthusiasts maybe, among John and Jane Q Retro Gamer, not so much

[@ryuhoshu3303]

Great video, learned about some more games that I wasn't aware of, thanks man

[@MadPanicGaming]

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

[@TekMerc]

I have never heard of Nightmare in the Dark before. For some reason I really love the ghost sprites in that game. Tim Burton-esque.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Yeah, it has a playful lighthearted horror vibe, very fun to play too

[@FranchisePlayyer]

Big fan of the “more games” series. Hope all is well man!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Doing well, thanks!

[@chocolocojames213]

The ACA Neo Geo games are fun to collect digitally, but it's missing some games. Like Nightmare in the Dark 🤔🤔🤔

[@MadPanicGaming]

I just to grab every Neo Geo rom I could get my hands on, it's the only reasonable way to play so many of them

[@itguru2037]

I just emulate all the games

[@bjornh1527]

Nightmare in the Dark should be very ripe for a re-release. Looks fantastic.

[@darktetsuya]

Interesting mix of NEO*GEO stuff! I remember ROBO ARMY from the Nick Arcade days... everyone always picked the NEO*GEO stuff, and handily got whooped by the Wizard's challenge, lol. Blazing Star I remember being neat from the little bit I played in MAME, might have to revisit it soon!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Nick Arcade always had either Robo Army, Magician Lord, or Cyber Lip, so rare for a kid to actually beat one of those challenges

[@thewingedavenger1007]

The Neo Geo was off-limits to kids who didn't have billionaire parents. But I was lucky to live very close to an arcade that was always full of Neo Geo games, so I got to play a lot of them anyway. And nowadays, I just go to the Nintendo Switch e-shop, type in the letter N, click on Neo Geo, and download the games. My Nintendo Switch is full of Arcade Archive and Neo Geo games, not to mention the excellent SNK Anniversary Collection!

[@MadPanicGaming]

True, and whatever isn't currently available on the e-shop is available by other means, just have to do a bit of digging

[@mekman4]

Great Stuff as always!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thank you!

[@mekman4]

@@MadPanicGaming you are welcome and thank you for the like!

[@pishbot]

sweet list. alpha mission 2 is a fun time too

[@NoelComiX]

Blazing Star is my fav. Shmup

[@hdrgb]

Man, I didn't even watch the video, but I immediately gave it the thumbs up cause we're talking about the Neo here. Holla on my end sometime and keep up the good work, Japanese Gringo Champ!

[@6r3aT6oNz0]

MOOAARRR GAMESSSSS; Love this series!

[@MadPanicGaming]

THANK YOU!

[@wulfspyder8381]

GhostLop was never officially released, that's why you never heard of it. I didn't discover it until I got into emulation as well, same with Nightmare in the Dark, which never got an official home console release. GhostLop reminds me of Puzzle Bobble quite a bit

[@mjdf122]

Neo Geo time with Jim/Mad Panic Gaming another great video thanks enjoy life see you next time

[@atomiswave1971]

Blazing star is cart exclusive. Pulstar came out on disc. Blazing star mega expensive I have it mvs. I think we both know nobody is rushing out to buy these original 😂

[@jks1311]

You should do another 2d switch games video many new awesome releases :-)

[@giovannyvasquez1099]

Savage reign is a good fighting game on Neo Geo. This game compares to ninja gaiden, virtua fighter, marvel vs capcom, street fighter, mortal kombat, and all other fighting games. I never play Savage reign, but that's a very good game.

[@OOOAAAIII]

I read Ghostlop never got released, so good reason you hadn't heard of it yet :-)

[@MadPanicGaming]

You're absolutely right lol, crack research team over here

[@edwinkirkland8856]

Thank you dearly sit

[@FalcomScott312]

I loved the Neo Geo it was not only the most expensive but great console of all time here! 😀 👍🎮

[@SegaCDUniverse]

I think this one and the sequel are on my Neo Geo X. I can't beat Kizuna for the life of me, so damn hard!

[@bjornh1527]

I don’t think I’ve heard anybody praising Ghostlop before, I do prefer action in my puzzle games!

[@billcook4768]

Bonus!

[@Aitch-qq6td]

King of Monsters 1 and 2 were great.

[@giovannyvasquez1099]

Hey Jim. How are you?
