From the creator of the neobitz comes his first release:
Knight's Chance - AES
I'm still missing Gunlord which is a high want. Fast Striker, Razion and Bang 2 Busters are games I likely won't get unless i'm able to trade for them or if there are reprints.
Here's my current set:
This showed up too:
Very nice! I'm resigned to settling for the DC versions Just out of curiosity, do these homebrews come with US version inserts as well?
I got a buddy of mine who wants to get into neo Geo but don't really have the money, so I suggested maybe getting a ps2 since the neo Geo ports are on the system. I forgot if any of the arcade ports were good or not. Thats probably his best bet huh

PS2 is a good bet. You've got the Samurai Shodown, Fatal Fury, Metal Slug, and World Heroes anthologies, King of fighters Orochi has collected KOF 94-98, neo geo battle coliseum which has all your favorite characters in a fighter, and a very respectable collection called SNK arcade classics. All of these can be had cheap. And if your buddy were to import they could get the ADK collection which has a handful of 3rd party titles, including Twinkle Star Sprites.
or you could just load neorage or mame on your pc and be done with it
I picked up a cheap cart only copy of Bust-a-Move Pocket (NA) to replace the PAL Puzzle Bobble Mini that I own for NGPC (as mentioned in a previous post UK copies are glitched and don't save among other things).
I've also just grabbed a cart on copy of Last Blade for NGPC for a BIN of £9.99.
Pleased with that as I already own a boxed copy but will now have a spare for two player....or at least what I call two player, which is just me linking up my own systems to see what happens.
Figured I'd share my experience - the ying and yang of selling NG AES games. To counter the great sale ($150) I made for Magician Lord, I recently re-listed my US complete Football Frenzy - 7 day auction - fetched just $61.00. I was kind of stunned, but better than getting nothing since the UK parcel had lost it for many months.
honestly I think you did pretty good with $61 for football frenzy. Football frenzy and fatal fury are probably the least valuable of the dog tag series.
Spinmaster is just a lot of fun; particularly for kids - Metal Slug...but w/yo yo's.
View Point is just cool. Vertizontal mechanic is fun - tough game though.
I wish I could get behind US/EURO artwork - its just too mixed bag for me. The universal nature of the JP stuff (and the lower prices) are much more appealing to me.
Just out of curiosity, do these homebrews come with US version inserts as well?
