Neo Geo buying advice

Post by Cov238 »

Hey guys

I found a Neo Geo arcade 2 slot for $500. The seller claims it works fine and comes with 9 games. Good deal? Bad deal? Any help would be appreciated.

cheers

Depending on the 9 games it could be an amazing deal of a lifetime.

I first inquired as to the seller's location. No point if its out of reach but I'm hoping it will be doable. But yeah, next I plan on asking about what the games are. thx mate

I'll be sure to ask next time I'm in contact with him, hopefully in a few hours, about the games and for pics both external and if possible, external.

Is it the entire cabinet, just the board, of a consolized MVS? If it's the first or third one, then it's a good deal. [Especially the first], if it's just the board, you're getting seriously ripped off. That's an unlikely possibility, but just letting you know.

If you get it, then look at this game cart and ask "swirlee" there.

are you implying that it's a couple thousand dollars? I think thats only the aes version sadly. This would be the mvs arcade version.
