Retro gaming in general is cool. Have you seen Retro Gamer magazine? They give out emulators and roms each month. Fantastic.

Neo Geo was a nice machine...just never quite made it succesful though. Shame really...it is one of the many that have fallen by the roadside.

Theres loads of em, but not many of them are actually any good. You can find them all here . As far as I know, GiriGiri was the first to be capable of running commercial games, dont know if any others do it yet.

theres emulators for pretty much anything....even playstation 2!! but working ones with commercial games arent about.

even the n64 emulators are quite buggy...but neo geo, megadrive, snes, etc....all work as well as your console ever did.

neo geo was THE BEST for fighting games....so many and the king of fighters and street fighters cant be beaten on ANY SYSTEM in my opinion...playablity never got any better

if any1 fancies a link up then join my site and im sure we will get a game sumtime

wahoooo

The METAL SLUG series were brilliant, they had them in the arcade (running on NEO GEO hardware).

I always wanted a Neo Geo and an Atari Jaguar.

Alas, all I could afford was a bag of plastic spoons.

I bought my boyfriend a Neo Geo with 7 games (Ebay) for Christmas. He's wanted one for YEARS but most people don't know what he's talking about!
