dont save too much. actually 10-20 would be ok

as far as non fighting games, there are a few rpgs that are cool, dark arms, the metal slugs, sonic, puzzle ones, jam jam cool...

Well I was hoping to get one CIB, which seems to run around the $40-$60 range. I guess I'd take one without the box though if it was less than $20.

I'm still expanding my NGP collection, but it has slowed down a bit, since I've been trying to get a few games for my regular Neo Geo. As for my next games, I hope to pick up Pac-Man, Neo Turf Masters, and Fatal Fury: First Contact soon. I bring my NGPC with me to school every day; not a single person knew what it was the first time I brought it. Then I showed them Match of the Millennium, and now they ALL know what it is. :lol:

To be honest, Fatal Fury is a bit lame. Gals fighters works fast and got items, kof has a lot of characters and SNK vs Capcom is simply awesome, but Fatal fury... runs slower, theres not too many game options and theres a lack of characters. Unless you find it pretty cheap or CIB, I suggest not getting it.

Ive heard cool things about Neo Turf, but im not interested in that kind of game at first :/

Im really interested in the Dive alert ones and Biomot unitrons. Hope to get them cheap soon.

I just got a copy Neo Turf Masters the other day from an eBay lot purchase. Very solid game. You can catch yourself playing for long periods of time. Very easy to pick up and play. I recommend it.

Biomotor Unitron is a fantastic game that I highly recommend. Very fun, lots of customization, long playtime, and challenging in a sense.

I really need to buy another Neo-Geo Pocket Color in the near future. I had one back in the day along with Sonic and a few other things and it was a pretty great handheld. I have been seeing a lot of great deals on Ebay as of late (I have never seen one of the things locally) so I might buy it later on this week.

It's a great system, and some of the later titles (Last Blade, Gals FIghters, Faselei and Evolution) are some really great handheld games. I really got in to Faselei when it came out; great graphics and very 'Front Mission-y'.

I'm only a few titles away from a complete PAL collection (all complete, including clamshell, instructions/warning notes and the little plastic cart case), but some of the more obscure titles and those that were release as the system was withdrawn from sale (Dynamite Slugger, Last Blade, Faselei etc.) can be quite tricky to track down now. I think I'm only missing a few of the early black and white titles and 2-3 of the gambling games.

Thats the first time I've ever read that before. Is the Lynx any good? I thought there were barely any good games for it.
Well, I just saw this...sorry! I love my lynx. I have 2 of them actually, a gen 1 and gen 2. I bought the gen 1 brand new in 1991 at Toys R Us in Dallas. I forgot what I paid, but my parents were pissed... Since then, I have collected and had stolen more games than many people have played in their lives. I probably owned, at one point or another, 90% of the available library for the lynx. I have about 35 games right now... I love it.
