Definitely need to swap plans but I think the highest you can get the cap on a "residential" plan is 250-300gb :P which sucks when games like BF1 suck up 40GB+ just to install.

What, purposely join that lot? http://www.neo-geo.com/

:P
Yeah well hes long dead and the site isnt. I was told similar stuff about the crazy issue. There are a select few weirdos on there who post dumb crap, but little of that spills out of the offtopic and war room area. It is a solid resource and been helpful to me who had no experience with NeoGeo other than a NGPC back when it was a thing and playing the arcade in the 90s.

In "well used" :P (read: rough shape), managed to find a few more MVS carts.


For $25

I had to trim and file the corners of the PCB's of that King of Fighters 10th Anniversary cart.
It wouldn't fit otherwise. Works fine now.

Ugh I hate you. :) $25 really?! I'd have been mind blown just getting one of the top two for that alone. Not sure who your sources is but enjoy it if that wasn't an one off.

Dunno about you guys but our version of pawn shops are called "Cash Crusaders".
Got those carts from there on my way back from work. Although it's very seldom that one gets to find Neo related stuff there.

There are other sources as well. Local auction sites, gumtree, etc.
On those sites, MVS carts pop up more frequently.

Aaron if only I cared about making the cool response... He died years ago, places change. Maybe it was more horrible back then, but I've had no problem there in the last six months. They're genuinely pretty nice, they also still have that community pricing/policing you don't see much on console leaning game sites too so they keep it well guarded in that respect as well. It's a solid resource.


TH: Never heard of cash crusaders. While I admit I don't look at pawn really, in my time browsing flea markets and online junk like craigslist I've almost never seen a thing, and it ended up being a local facebook group I joined hours earlier where my cabinet with 10 games showed up so I grabbed it. I just use the NG forum mostly to get really solid deals, but I also am very patient and I do use a guide they have (formerly run here on price) to poke a stick at ebay too so I have got enough from there wisely.

That's not even fair. I'd love to have a Neo Geo, AES or MVS.
