Who owned "NEO GEO"

[MaGilicuti]

me and 68gt350 were discussing how we are going through now the 4th or 5th generation of video game systems. Its just a completely different time in video games, its unbelievable from where it started off as.

Anyway I don't know where NEO GEO fit in but didn't anyone have this thing? It was $700 when it came out and the games were $200 each. The games weren't all that, and it came out during SNES and GENESIS days. Who bought this fucking thing?

 

[FarBeyondDriven]

nope, had an one of the old Atari's and a Colecovision, not to mention a pong machine. Now those were old school, back when pac-man was kewl

 

[the People's Champ]

that game system was outrageously expensive. Idont see how anyone back then could own one of those. but they did have an edge as far as graphics went, and the games in the arcade were pretty cool.

better yet who owned TURBO GRAFFIX

 

[the People's Champ]

I wanted one of those..

 

[BilboBaggins]

i shit my pants when i saw how expensive they were. i actually played one once nad the graphics were a little better then NES but not for that price. fuck an x-box is cheaper then one of those things

better yet who owned TURBO GRAFFIX

guilty..at the time it was pretty bad ass.. still got it too..

 

[HighIntensity]

I still got it 2...and i have the hand held Turbo graffix...still the best portable ever

better yet who owned TURBO GRAFFIX

was it expensive at the time? that system was pretty cool. the portable version was even better....

 

[MaGilicuti]

back to neo geo guys, i guess no one owned this piece of shit

 

[Sexual Mustard]

I actually wanted the NeoGeo system! Only because it had the game "Baseball Stars," which was discontinued as a Nintendo game.

I also wanted the hand held TurboGraffx thingy. Wasn't it called the TurboXpress? 16-bit hand-held graphics--not bad. I read that it ate up battery life like a mofo.

 

[Shrebly]

Had: Odyssey, Tandy, Atari 2600, Blip System

Have: PS1, Sega, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance

Buying: Gamecube, Novustar and possibly PS2 if the price drops. Alos looking at Sega Game Gear and Nomad.

 

[Shrebly]

Forgot, 3DO and some strange knock off Atari wanna-be.

can you say "game geek"?

 

[freak daddy]

Had: Odyssey,

I thought I was the only poor fool who had that system. Pix Axe Pete picked ass. I loved the bowling game too. I could hit 300 quite often. Quest was a cool game too.

I had some spelling game, bowling - it got boring REAL quick, Asteroids wanna be, a sub hunt game, a few sport games etc. Let's put it this way, it fell off a truck [wink wink] so we weren't all that picky about the games we got.

 

[ssj-hawk]

I wanted one.. but who could afford that..

i don't know what the hell they were thinking..

 

[PsychoSkitz]

I had TurboGrafx-16.

Bonks Adventure, IMO, dominated Sonic.

I loved that system but graduated to a Genesis, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, Dreamcast, GameGear, etc.

Hmmm, everything I like goes down. Stay away from XBox

 

[Wombat]

I have one sitting in my closet--it was my brothers----Have 5 games for it --$200 a game is a joke

Magician Lord--was a pretty good game back in its day

Football Frenzy--this game sucked ass

Baseball Stars--fun to play

Riding Hero--very boring

Top players Golf--this was a decent game if you like golf

but this system was way to expensive. This was a japan based system that had potential but came in way to expensive and never dropped its price--

 

[69Muscle]

It was like $600.00 for the system back then. I remember drooling over that back in the day. When I was still plugging quarters in the arcades.

Lasted longer then Virtual Boy.

 

[L.A.X]

What about the atari jaguar....that was a hunk-o-shit

 

[69Muscle]

WHAT?! The Jaguar was a great system for the day, it's only downfall like the neo-geo was crap for games. Alien vs predator on the Jag is still one of the best versions of the game out there. Don't forget the Jaguar came out when Genesis and SNES were kings. For the day that system ruled.
