I don't know if this counts to you as support but there have been new games that have come out on the Neo Geo made by NG:DEV, their newest game being Gun Lord that came out just last year. So if you count those games then that expand the Neo Geo's life up to almost 22 years of support.
My dream: Get an arcade 6-slot Neo Geo with a memory card, install the entire metal slug series, paint a cabinet for metal slug series, install EVERYTHING, feel like a boss
it's funny you mention the support life of the neo geo as being the second longest in vg history, the ps2 is closing in on that title i think. not sure if it will make it but it's only a couple of years away
Just got one the other day and before I did I checked out youtube for reviews. Like most of my gaming searches I came to one of your videos. I just wanted to say that dip switch #7 is for free play.
Love this video. I remember when i would go to an arcade the first thing i did was look for a Neo Neo MVS to play ( Metal Slug X being one of my all time favs ). And im a hug SNK fan as well. Now i have a question, do they have SNK Vs Capcom as an MVS game?. I think its so awesome that you managed to get a Neo Geo MVS in such great condition as well. Keep up the awesome videos! :D. Take Care
Hey, guys. It's possible to activate the Free Play option. For this, after select a game, enter on it's BIOS configuration and configure it. If this worked for me while I was using M.A.M.E to emulate Neo Geo MVS games, it could work on a real Neo Geo MVS cabinet.
Hey im a huge fighting game fan. I really want a neo geo arcade for fighting games and metal slug. Would you suggest I pick one up? and about how much should I pay up to for one like this? Please respond
@IAMCARBONDOG Try Craigslist. It depends on what type of MVS you are looking for 1, 2, 4, or 6 slot. Usually they sell anywhere from $300-$600 pending on which version you want.
@Gamester81 Hey thanks. Ive checked craigs list. But alas theirs never anything good up there. I can barely find snes games let alone specific arcades. the only arcade they have up there is an area 51. I guess im just gonna keep checking. I want a slot 2 or 4 and if worse comes to worse I might need to get one special made or get one off ebay with those Terrible shipping charges.
how can you stand to be in your garage in august in the valley ? ugh. You are more resilient than I. As soon as it hits 100, I stay IN the house , A/C on!
Great video. I smile anytime I see the ol' MVS in taco shops and laundrymats...still getting play. A true workhorse for SNK, looks like it found a good home. By the way big fan of All Gen Gamers, and now finally a subscriber!
i got one of these too, the player-1 C button is broken and needs to be replaced. I see a hinge but can't figure out how to access the controller from underneath. I do see two locks above the screen, but i don't have the keys. Am I suppose to open that, remove the bezel, and then turn the controls over?
Your a wicked nice guy. Anyways that's a really cool arcade. For some reason the size of the neo geo games is appealing to me I can always imagine it eating pc engine games lol
@TravisTuchdown is the cab on it original paint , monitor loock good, coing locks are there; are the games loose? !!!you got a good deal!!!! I pay 625.00 for my mvs cab 2 slots with 3 games complete, plus 6 loose games :}
@Gamester81 there is actually a little box with dip switches in the motherboard there is about 8 little white switches, not sure which one it is but on mine it was number 7, I'm not sure what was the setting on the 4 slot, cause I just bought me a 2 slot. Also make sure even though it's been refurbished to check the battery most of the MVS systems battery usually leaks and a leaky battery is bad for the motherboard.
@tryton1000 are you saying you can't have 2 quarters on hand? I mean you'd own the machine so you just leave the coin slot open and take BACK your coins to keep playing..or you know....maybe try and get some money back by letting other people put THEIR money into your system.
@Gamester81 to enlighten on why the camera does that, is because the screen (The arcade systems screen) has a low refresh rate. most lcd screen they have now a days for 2009-2010 for computers have a higher refresh rate (the rate on which the screen refreshes) they usually refresh in Hertz so you can't see it refreshing, this is usually set to 90+ so the lines will not appear. so that is why you get the black lines. It does the same thing with old computer moniters (2000-2006). Hope this helps
@justinxsmith2 um ok not to be nerdy but those black lines are are caused by the light flashing 60 times a second. Basicly all light bulbs and TV monitors etc. use AC current. And AC current turns of and on 60 a second or 60 cycles. The black lines are the effect of this 60c/s. you can only see the black lines if you record it since the light flashes fster than the human eye can see.
I have your exact cabinet except as a 48-1 multicade and I have another 4 slot Neo Geo that is a slightly different cabinet with 6 original dedicated games and the 120-1 cart. Like you I got great deals on both units, but I am in the middle of restoring the multicade one.
i´m from europe and my brother just bougt a mvs and it's kind a cool because i never see no cabinet like my brother's, its a 6-slot cabinet if you want to check it out to see go to my page, props:)
awesome vid dude. I have a quick q, I also have a MVS 4 slot but i want to switch it to a 6 slot does the back hatch of the mvs open? lmk cause all i want to also change the buttons and stick . Thx!
thx dude for the info, yeah i want 2 put more carts while i'm playing. I also have to put in new leds on my display cause some dont light up as bright. But thx again, keep up those awesome vids!
Great video, you and Luke have helped me a lot in my decision in buying one of these. I just purchased a single slot for $195 dollars with Samurai Shodown, and the store is about five miles near me so I can pick it up. Can't wait to get it and put in a four slot motherboard. Again thanks for the very informative video!
Awesome Erik, I'm glad you were able to find one, and $195 is a great deal. What games do you plan on getting for it? I recommend the 111 in 1 multicart (I did a review on it not too long ago). Great find man!
Update last veteran's day I picked up a 2 slot 25 inch. It is a bit beat up, so I am planning on doing a little restoration. I really wanted the 25 inch, and the room in the two slot. Going to repaint it, replace control pad, and replace glass monitor cover. Wish me luck!
Finding the red ones in the UK is so bloody difficult. The ones we got here were pretty bland and ugly, apart from the 6-slot, which are even harder to find =(
Great to see more and more people with Neo-Geo cabinets.
I myself own a 6-slot MVS, but it's a candy cabinet (JP style).
And, like yourself, I bought mine from someone that lived near me (though he was ~10 mins away). I don't think I'd ever buy such a thing if I can't see it firsthand (esp. when people use a fake photo of whatever they're selling -- yes, I've seen this happen).
Can't go wrong with one of the best arcade systems! Congrats on your purchase.
Wow, that cab looks to be in really good condition. I myself just purchased a cab that had been converted to Neo Geo. Not quite genuine SNK but almost as good and a ton of fun. Good luck with yours and thanks for the video.
man, dude you are lucky, NEO-GEO is great, wish ihad one arcade like this.....actualy....i could just go to the aracade place near where i live, they have one alike(without free plays) :D
I played Metal Slug 2 on this arcade cab at a restaurant.Amazing how the games still hold up well to this day. I might get an AVS cab and some games soon.
man, i just want one arcade cabinet for my collection, something good like pac man, but if i can still get a bad one, i'd get it. any suggestions on getting one easily without using the net?
I personally prefer craigslist to find cabs. You might also want to visit your local pizza parlors in your area that have cabs and ask the owners to notify you when they decide to sell any of them.
I love the 360 as well but it really is badly made.. I have an MVS board that has been humming away since 1989 and works perfectly - my 360 has died several times since I first got it, the warrenty is now gone, I've had to get it repaired privately and the thing still keeps on red-lighting! Ilove the games but I'm getting so pissed off, I'm definetly thinking of going for a PS3.
The PS3 is a great system. Just needs more arcade ports, and PSone titles on the American PSN. And yes I realize Sony of America has to go through some red tape b4 releasing PSone titles on the PSN.The 360 has some killer arcade titles on XBL. Wish they would be on the PSN as well. Wishful thinking i guess.
Yeah it would be nice to see some arcade titles on the PS3. But then again I have been playing MAME online with people for a long time now. And that is free.
Thats pretty kick ass man, i'd love to have somethin like that. Also thats really cool of you to send your friend a game. I'm sure he'll appreciate it (Yes, I know who it is lol)
Nice Find man! I have been looking for a MVS myself but so far haven't found one anywhere close to me. So far the only thing I have found is a Japanese Candy cab with a MVS board thats been set-up in it but the cost of the machine and having it shipped it like $3000!
Dude that's awesome, congrats on completing the collection of neo geo. Im still looking for an AES but they are so expensive, but i may treat myself one day. ?i just love snk games, blazing star is one of my favourites, it's awesome!
Wow...this is great. Congratulations man. I was wondering if you were going to lug that thing up to your gameroom after what you said before. Good luck!
WOW!! I am in tears right now over this! I was going to pick one up, but I couldn't find one in the area. Awesome find, and also I wish that guy only the best. Your a great friend! I own now 11 games for the MVS, but I am probably going to wait til 2010 to get the MVS now.
In my previous jobs, I used to be the guy that goes around collecting coins out the arcade machines. I remembered quite a few of the Neo Geo MVS cabinets in the 7-11 stores.
LOL@360 joke! It is funny because it is true. That sucks about that dude going through hard times. That is way nice of you to send him a game like that man. And that is a damn nice looking cab. Very very awesome!
It's true that Nintendo support the Famicom for 20 when it comes to repairs and making units, but I they stopped making games for it in the early to mid 90's.
That's correct. The last official game made for the Famicom was the Famicom exclusive, Takahashi Meijin no Boukenjima IV, or Adventure Island 4 if it would've been released in the U.S. It was released June 24,1994. However, pirate companies are still making games today.

I think you're thinking of NAM 1975. It's a badass game, and I have it on my AES system.

man, i just want one arcade cabinet for my collection, something good like pac man, but if i can still get a bad one, i'd get it. any suggestions on getting one easily without using the net?

I personally prefer craigslist to find cabs. You might also want to visit your local pizza parlors in your area that have cabs and ask the owners to notify you when they decide to sell any of them.

Great clip! I am picking up my first MVS Cabinet in the next few days so I enjoyed seeing this! It will also be my 3rd cabinet!

I love the 360 as well but it really is badly made.. I have an MVS board that has been humming away since 1989 and works perfectly - my 360 has died several times since I first got it, the warrenty is now gone, I've had to get it repaired privately and the thing still keeps on red-lighting! Ilove the games but I'm getting so pissed off, I'm definetly thinking of going for a PS3.

I cant comment on the 360 since I have never owned one. But my PS3 has been chuggin away since a few weeks after it was released.

The PS3 is a great system. Just needs more arcade ports, and PSone titles on the American PSN. And yes I realize Sony of America has to go through some red tape b4 releasing PSone titles on the PSN.The 360 has some killer arcade titles on XBL. Wish they would be on the PSN as well. Wishful thinking i guess.

Yeah it would be nice to see some arcade titles on the PS3. But then again I have been playing MAME online with people for a long time now. And that is free.

Nice Find man! I have been looking for a MVS myself but so far haven't found one anywhere close to me. So far the only thing I have found is a Japanese Candy cab with a MVS board thats been set-up in it but the cost of the machine and having it shipped it like $3000!

WOW!! I am in tears right now over this! I was going to pick one up, but I couldn't find one in the area. Awesome find, and also I wish that guy only the best. Your a great friend! I own now 11 games for the MVS, but I am probably going to wait til 2010 to get the MVS now.

Nice cab. Really tough to find one that isn't a conversion. Now you have to gut it and turn into a MAME cab. ;P Great review.

In my previous jobs, I used to be the guy that goes around collecting coins out the arcade machines. I remembered quite a few of the Neo Geo MVS cabinets in the 7-11 stores.

LOL@360 joke! It is funny because it is true. That sucks about that dude going through hard times. That is way nice of you to send him a game like that man. And that is a damn nice looking cab. Very very awesome!

You're a lucky man, dude. I'd love to have one of those things. Or at least an MK cabinet.

John, you make a grown man green with envy with that collection of yours.
And also, I was very happy to hear that you sent that Youtube user a gift in hopes to cheer him up. That's just awesome, man. You keep being you.

Fun fact (that you most likely knew) - The Famicom was the longest supported system - 20 years.
nastyguard007 2 years ago
It's true that Nintendo support the Famicom for 20 when it comes to repairs and making units, but I they stopped making games for it in the early to mid 90's.
Gamester81 2 years ago
Oh, I guess I wasn't really paying attention at that point, so if that's the case - You're right.
But if that's the case - PS2 may soon beat the MVS...
nastyguard007 2 years ago
That's correct. The last official game made for the Famicom was the Famicom exclusive, Takahashi Meijin no Boukenjima IV, or Adventure Island 4 if it would've been released in the U.S. It was released June 24,1994. However, pirate companies are still making games today.
famicomdork 2 years ago
Awesome! :) I'd really like to grab a few arcade games when I get a house. And an MVS sounds like a great idea.
