What are some must have Neo Geo CD Games?

Post by ReddMcKnight »

As some of you may already be aware, I recently acquired a Neo Geo CDZ. Long story short, I only have 1 game for it, and I can't beat it. It gets really tough near the end. Anyway, what are some of the best games for it? I am already aware of a couple:

Samurai Shodown RPG
King of Fighters '97

Neo Turf Masters is fun too

That's an apt description for almost every SNK fighting game.

Dunk Dream/Street Hoop was what I played the most when I had a NeoGeo CD.

Don't be such a prick!

Unless you really don't know, the load times are horrendous on that game.

He did say "supposedly". I personal love it despite the loading.

As for my recommendations, most the loading isn't to bad:

Iron Clad (very hard to find and expensive)
Pulstar
Crossed Swords 2 (exclusive)
Windjammers
Dunk Dreams
Kabuki Klash
Puzzle Bobble
Ninja Commando
Over Top (expensive also)
Neo Driftout
Top Hunter

Some of these are kinda pricey but I had fun with all of these.
