Just needing to vent....

Post by kingdomheights777 »

Owning a Neo Geo AES is like owning Lamborghini, everyone else is envious and it costs an arm and a leg for maintenance and addons. I have 10 mvs carts that i really want to put in cases but at 9 bucks a case that's kinda ridiculous ($8200 for an oil change in a Lamborghini). I am not griping about the owner of the neostore he is a very helpful guy and has helped me on numerous occassions and i know he sets prices so he can get more great stuff in stock . Now don't get me wrong I will still probably end up paying 100 bucks for cases (after shipping), but I just can't bring myself to justify it after a year of owning my aes. thanks for letting me vent guys

I'm with you man owning this thing is expensive! my aes collection has proven to be quite expensive and its by no means a terribly impressive one look on the bright side MVS is cheaper than aes!

So while the economy tanks, people lose their jobs, families struggle to make ends meet and hold onto their houses, children starve in third world countries, and others live in constant fear of violence, your problem is that you want to buy fancy cases for your game collection?

My heart bleeds for you.

You hit the nail on the head my friend, my heart aches for those individuals, and my wife and I pray for better things to come for them and the world that we all live in. :)

I've always wanted to get one. I have a lot of consoles and I really enjoy playing things on the original hardware but I already have almost every Neo game for other consoles. I always say when we get a bigger house (with a basement) I'll get a 4 slot cab.
