Hey guys,

 

Back with Neo-Geo contributer Mike from Gamer Logic which is fellow Atariage member, mmertes.

 

Mike just did a fantastic video of World Heroes 2 for us to enjoy. Glad to see more from this underappreciated fighter that really is a great alternative from the popular fighting titles from the 90's era!

 

Thank you for sharing this Mike. Keep up the great work!

 

From the description,

"Today we fire up World Heroes 2 on the NEO-GEO AES!"

Just received Metal Slug MVS cart to play so I don't have to tamper with my AES cart, what a blast and this game never gets old. IMHO, this is the best Metal Slug game, if not the best Neo-Geo game. Sequels don't do the justice as most are just rehashed.

 

Hey Vince,

 

Glad to see you back posting on the Neo-Geo thread. Happy to know that you're having a good time playing the original Metal Slug without bothering an AES cart. Were always glad to see what you have to say and all your stories that you can tell us with your history with the Neo-Geo! :)

 

Thank you as always Vince. Keep up the great work as always! :)

Hi guys,

 

More videos regarding the NeoSD flash card from NeoSD,

 

From what they said on neo-geo.com

  1. "We are going to make some more videos today showing features such as MVS loading games on AES mode without unibios, and showing more load times.


    Stay tuned !"

"This video shows how to change from MVS to AES with NEOSD, without UNIBIOS !!!"

Hey Anthony I have a question for you. This is a link to a eBay auction to Metal Slug 5. It's says it's a conversion but it looks very legit. I was wondering if it is a conversion or not. Thanks!

 

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Metal-Slug-5-SNK-Neo-Geo-AES-Not-MVS-JAPAN-Conversion-/131978740441?nav=SEARCH

 

Hey Evan,

 

Glad you ask. Seeing that this happens to be from France, the French in the Neo-Geo community have a concern with sellers with counterfeit and unofficial Neo-Geo AES carts. Not being bias to the French gamers, but quite a good handful of them in the past and even today are selling illegitimate copies of Neo-Geo AES and MVS titles.

 

Most fakes are becoming harder to spot using material very similar to what SNK had to offer. If you compare the real versions to the fakes, you can see how they look just the same. If the seller says its a conversion, it is! At least he was honest to say it.

 

Best way to check is opening up the cartridge to see the boards to authenticate its legitimacy

 

Here's a link that will show you the scans of AES and MVS PCB boards to show you what they look like.

Hope this helps Evan.

Thanks Anthony! Yes it looks good and that's for the advice. Something interesting I found is that the SNK playmore logo is lower on the label.

That's right with the label Evan. Just look at that! Just terrible. :(

 

Unfortunately, the official ones are going for outrageous prices. So many feel that they can only buy conversions because its considerably less expensive.

 

But why do anything like that? It only promotes more counterfeits circulating around the market and wasting good money on poorly made false products!

 

Glad you ask this and my advice is to avoid them as much as possible. Thank you for the question and stopping by Evan. :)

Hi guys,

 

Back again with Brandon Inn the Retrogamer doing another demo for us. Let's see him talk about Cyber-Lip.

 

"ust a gameplay demo of this 1990

science-fiction, run n' gun
but action/adventure game that
plays like "Contra" and "Metal Slug"
before the actual Trilogy Series
started later in 1996.

"The plot to the game is you
play as Rick and Brook (that only
represents Player 1 & Player 2)
two human veteran soldiers, who are sent by an unspecified "federal government" into combat on a last-ditch attempt to save Earth from a malfunctioning military supercomputer in charge of all military androids. The gameplay consists of battling through large amounts of enemies, collecting power-ups and defeating several end-of-stage bosses... This makes it comparable to the likes of "Contra" in or "Metal Slug" terms of gameplay..."

Fun Fact: Just like "Robo Army",
"Ghost Pilots", "Blue's Journey"
and "King Of The Monsters", this
one also appeared on the old
Nickelodeon Game Show "Nick
Arcade" back in the '90s (true story!)
Plus I only played this game two times
and I liked the way how they say:
"I'm a goner!" and "Ugh! I'm Hit"
after you die on your last live..."

Hey Anthony I have a question for you. Why was the MVS so bootlegged. I know that so many carts are bootlegged and wondering why and can you give me some history on it. Thanks!

Hi Evan,

 

MVS and AES are two of the most bootlegged cartridges due to the high prices that they cost. When anything is expensive and uneasy to have access to, counterfeiters will try to make their own versions of them at cheaper prices! That's really the main reason why so many circulate on the market today.

 

When the MVS cartridges were sold in the 90's for example, the cartridges cost from $1,000-$2000 dollars in the United States alone. So at the time it was cheaper to acquire games for the AES. Somewhere down the line (around Metal Slug era) prices and values started to change for the home cartridges more since the Neo-Geo AES units ceased production in 1997. The quantities of the home carts are considerably less compared when the AES was introduced a few years earlier.

 

Counterfeiters tampered with more of the common cartridges for both MVS and AES to make them. If you look at Crossed Swords II that became available for the MVS & AES (1st run) they we used shells instead of the reproduction carts that NGDEVTEAM have for their titles. Those were from bootlegs that were collected throughout the years and were assembled to develop CSII . So believe it or not. the 1st run carts for them were re-reused again from tampered games to make Crossed Swords II

 

Hope that helps Evan. Anymore questions, feel free to ask. :)

 

Anthony...
