I really enjoyed Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, though I too had some issue with it. Especially with some slowdown troubles I've had occur in the game.
Beyond that, fun game, and I enjoyed some of the characters that were included in the game. Especially the alien from Metal Slug...awesome idea.

* I liked Battle Fantasia, but feel as though BlazBlue handles better.
* I tried the trial version of the PC version of MB:AC, but IDK if I plan on getting it. And don't think if I did, I'd shell out for it. And before you admonish me, remember... we're in a recession, and if they didn't want us to pirate it, they'd make more than enough copies to have a high-enough supply to warrant lower prices. I mean, I think (but am not sure) that the Troma film Mother's Day is OOP and used copies now cost at least under $50! I mean, Final Fantasy Tactics for PS1 was hella expensive, but then a GH release lowered the price.
* I think I have that game, but I hardly use my NGPC.
And there's this indie fighter made with the latest PC version of Fighter Maker called "Terrordrome", which is a fighting game with horror icons (Freddy, Jason, Michael, Chucky, Ash and Leatherface are playable in the demo, but the full version will also feature Maniac Cop, Candyman and Pinhead).

Am I the only one who really liked Cyberbots? Really fun mech fighting game starring Jin from MVC2. It is so satisfying to watch the enemy mech explode at the end of each match.

Marvel vs. Capcom 1. That game is obviously more balanced than MVC2 and even though the roster is small, the characters possess a lot of personality.
