you have a 180º turn around, if you do 360º you come back to the same place. XD

Lol, damn, that happens from time to time XD

Great comparison Luke. It's interesting that the prices of the games today are such a big difference.

@franku26 I remember when the AES system was $800 and the cartridges were $400. I think that was around 1991.

I just bought my first AES cart ( Samurai Spirits w/box) today for 480 yen. Now I just need a system!

About 3 years late but the main reason converters exist other than the slot size difference is that MVS carts have a special chip which decodes graphics built into the cart whereas the AES carts don't. The AES system itself has this chip built in. Because of how the chip works, you can't plug an MVS cart in without modifying the data or the cart.

The main reason the AES carts or more expensive is because they were not mass produced like the MVS carts.

How much was the original price of an AES cartridge

[hundjsiegfried]

Wow. Your MVS cart looks so shiny. How do you clean?

The Neo Geo was marketed as 24-bit, though it was technically a 16-bit system with an 8-bit Zilog Z80 as coprocessor. The coprocessor was generally used for sound processing.

@LMassacreproductions Negative. Its 24 bit.

I bought a Neo Super MVS/SNK converter II for my AES system so now I can play MVS on my AES LOL! It's a dream come true :D Thanks for the vid!

Do you know where I can get a cheaper MVS to AES adapter?
