You're welcome.

The Neo is one of the systems I really enjoy and I like it when someone makes the jump. I just like to warn people that it can be costly and there's an opportunity to be scammed.

mjmjr25 has offered great advice in this and the other thread (as well as others) so your questions are getting answered in a friendly atmosphere.

Before you start spending hundreds on a specific game, look into a MVS to AES convertor. You still have your sharp looking console and get to buy the often cheaper MVS version. There are a number of them out there so research them a bit :wink:

Most importantly, have fun 8)

yes i have taken all info on board in my Thread , its interesting im researching on how to RGH XBOX 360 Jaspers and well the particular forum im asking questions in is somewhat aggressive and has a " im elite your not " attitude.

PS2 was like this years ago but has leveled out............even though im sticking with this project , here at RB forums i get a great response 99% of the time

ahh yes my plan is to buy a Daedalus MVS Converter and buy MVS only , i also have 2 CDZ's with plans for more of them and AES's.

CDZ is going to be my base and for the games unreleased on CD i will buy them in MVS form.

Ok, so I've figured out how to re-arrange my deck in Card Fighters Clash. What a difference that makes! I've got 4 coins now. Just beat the Resident Evil zombie boss. 8)

I know you've wanted that Sonic bundle a while dood, glad you finally got it!

Incidentally - if anyone has an AES CIB snapcase dups, hit me up. I have a dup KoF 99' and would love to trade it for something else.

thought I'd unwind w/ a little Card Fighters last night. Next thing I knew, it was 11PM (I go to bed at 10 during the week). I'm 12+ hrs into it now. I've gotten 5 coins, and am now getting my butt handed to me in the NG tournament.

Had the NGPC held out longer in the States, makes me wonder if Card Fighters could have been a real system seller. I mean, nobody could have predicted how Pokemon caught on and revived the GBC, right? It's hard to argue w/ the addictive quality of CFC.

I agree, it should have been a killer app. It's a shame that the DS version is apparently lousy.

I'm in that final tournament too. Had to put my NGPC playing on hold while I moved to China this past week but hoping to try and edge closer to beating this one soon.

What do you mean about figuring out how to arrange your deck, btw? Any tips?

whelp, your starter deck sucks after a while right? I mean you can swap cards in and out of it I suppose to make it better I guess, but what I've been doing is just keeping a 2nd deck and using that as my main. When I first started doing this I went thru the long process of picking each of my 50 cards... but now I've just gotten used to letting the CPU do it for me. It does a good job of picking your best AC and best CHAR cards and balancing them pretty well. Unfortunately you have "toss" your new deck and then start a new one to have it do this. Apparently though if you "toss" your starter deck, you lose all those cards. (I think? I'm not 100% certain, but didn't wanna chance it).

For a bit. Probably a year. Brought the NGPC and games with me though.

Hmm, I've never really experimented with having more than one deck. I just kept replacing crappier cards with newer ones or trading them away.

ultimately, your approach is prob smarter than mine. You have all your best cards in one place. I probably have them split between two decks.
