[charizaro2]

Someone please explain to me why they choose to air 20 hours of Cops over this show. :|

[Funkdogg]

if only they were not so expensive, they would rule the gaming world.

David Smith doesn't know what the hell he is talking about though...

"Mediocre side scrollers?" I don't think so...

I was playing Baseball Stars Pro , Top Player's Golf, Nam-1975, & Magician Lord on a home console in 1990 and these games BLEW AWAY anything else available for the home market at the time. Mediocre MY ASS!

Show me one game on the Genesis or TG16 that looks or sounds as good as a Neo-Geo game.

Anyway, Thanks for posting these videos, they rock! :)

[videogameobsession]

The NEO-GEO AES and MVS were in homes by 1990... G4 said "By 1991...." Oh well, it wouldn't be the first time G4 was wrong on something and it won't be the last. :P

It's too bad G4TV doesn't have shows like this anymore. They had really nice production value and were interesting.. Now we get 2-3 real shows and 22 hours of COPS!!!

Even till this day, I still enjoy SNK and all it's franchises.

[Neofcon]

You know, this icons gig didn't go into a lot of detail. They just say "Hyper Neogeo 64 came out, BUT IT FAILS!". We get more detail out about NGCD and some slight details on NGPocket, but they just went brief and say "they failed, so fuck it".

You gotta love the sad and dramatic music after showing KOF97. Really can start the heart strings up. Poor Ben Herman. Yeah I don't know why I said that, but he sounded so sad when he was describing the NGPC.

garou and metal slug baby :D oh and Mai

[PearlJammer07]

These classic SNK games are still great. Looks like i need to get SNK collection vol 1 &2 for the PS2.What a great series of videos. Thank you for posting.

[MichaelVentura9]

King of Fighters 94 was the best. i played it back in the day in some store down my block.

[playsnkmore]

Garou Mark Of The Wolves is the best game i ever played. love SNK

[haykg21]

SNK PLAYMORE is the best espetualy Metal Slug.

[ArcadeGames]

Samurai Showdown series was the best!

[SirFoggy2Doped]

SNK FOREVER!!!!

YEEAAAH!!!!!!!!!!

[hectorrona]

hey DAN is not that weak......

[TheBakachan]

Heh, I was just playing Samurai Spirits IV and King of Fighters '97 earlier on the MVS arcade board I have jury-rigged on my desk. :P

[SanosukeEiji]

Metal Slug, King of Fighters and Samurai Showdown were their best franchises but the company kept being too cocky and overpriced theyre good stuff, now crappy Playmore is messing up the franchises

[PearlJammer07]

@SanosukeEiji I agree with you about the best SNK franchises. Curious as to how Playmore is ruining gaming franchises? I thought Metal Slug collection on PS2 was done very well emulation and good extras.

[PearlJammer07]

@gomezgomas That is odd that a company that makes motorcycles would buy a company that makes video games. I understand why they did it though.Always good to have padding when owning a business.If you know what i mean.

@gomezgomas I believe you. It just seemed strange that is all.

[TheBakachan]

@gomezgomas Is your space bar broken or something, man? Also, Eolith and Mega did pretty good jobs on KoF2k1 and Metal Slug 4. (Both of which I have original MVS kits of.) Slug 4 is certainly better than Slug 5. (Not that anything can touch Metal Slug 3's awesomeness...) I don't know about KoF2k2 though, it's the only KoF game I don't have!

[garethjames1990]
