This is pretty bad, but due to the unusually high walnut to nostalgia ratio I couldn’t resist. If you don’t know what a Neo Geo is you’re either too young or there wasn’t that one rich kid at your school who, according to legend, had one with like ten games. This whole thing really could have worked with the inclusion of some stainless steel (a’la the Jupiter 6/8 side cheeks) and the omission of the my-uncle-built-these-cabinets-for-me rounded cartridge bezel. All in all pretty cool idea though; one of the only gaming consoles I wouldn’t feel obligated to hide.
This abomination of our collective unfulfilled childhood dreams can be yours for about the same (ridiculous) price as the original — $650 — direct from Analogue Interactive. Of course, if you actually want to play games on it, you’re going to have to double down.
But… but… it’s METAL SLUG. So worth every penny.
Wrong system. MVS carts go for nothing. This is a consolized arcade board that uses MVS carts, not the home system that is extremely collectible.
“who, according to legend, had one with like ten games.” Hahaha 😀 Priceless! I remember the x-mas when my mom bought me a SEGA Master System. I was like: “Whoooaaaa no waaaaaay!!” and it came with a game called “The Ottyfants” which I quickly replaced with Sonic, Batman and Star Wars hehe. Those were the days…

Whoops sorry for the double post! I checked back here and my first comment was gone, so I tried to memorize it (hence the second almost identical comment). Uhm, can you delete that last one? (and then this one?). Sorry for the trouble. I wonder why all the comments (except the one from Navis) were gone when I checked this post the second time. Hmm…
Yeah wrong system, Metal slug is a $30-40 game for MVS, you eBay linked to AES. Good job researching before you criticize ignorantly.
Its just a game, boys.
