Neo Geo MVS Arcade Review

I finally picked up a Neo Geo MVS (Multi Video System) arcade cabinet. Here is my review of one of my favorite arcade machines ever.

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.

is there no free play option in the game settings ?

[Gamester81]

@tryton1000 No I believe you have to mod for free play.

im a newbie whats up with the black line that comes down the screen

[Gamester81]

@justinxsmith2 That's the camera that causes that effect. It doesn't look like that when you're playing it in real life.

@Gamester81,

There are hard dips in the back of the cabinet that will allow for free play

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.

Or you could just get MAME and an arcade stick

Would the 4 button arcade be good for like a 111 in 1 cart?

I found one of these in a gift shop next to a fishing dock

I shed tears when it didn't work :(

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
