yeah i never saw a neo geo aes "in the wild", either - i'm from the great plains and outside of the arcades and the video power tv show I can't remember seeing it on sale anywhere, let alone somebody owning one. hell, somebody with a sega genesis was rare up until about 1994. And I knew one family with a turbografx, but other than that, it was nintendo everywhere
Yeah I didn’t know anyone with a Neo Geo or Turbografx (didn’t even know about that one growing up). I would have definitely been interested in Turbografx growing up seeing as how it was more affordable than Neo Geo. I just don’t think it ever got marketed right in the US or anywhere besides Japan.
@@chase5546 only reason it was even a blip on the radar for me was that they sold the turbografx for a little while at the radio shack in town. I got to play Bonk once and was fairly impressed as a kid. I don't remember the turbografx being stocked in kmarts or shopkos or what have you, you're 100% right on the marketing
@@bradybrapples I think it was mainly because Sega and Nintendo were in the midst of their own console war during that time here in the US and no other company could stand up to the marketing coming from both companies. It’s a shame in retrospect. Japan has like 5x the game library on their PC Engine. A lot of those games are amazing.
whats up with the incorrect buttons, why is the red button so low and why is there 6 buttons, ive had this in the amazon cart many times but cant take the plunge because of the buttons. Ive seen reviews where the buttons stick and collapse after 3 weeks of play
That’s completely understandable. I don’t believe SNK or Unico have publicly commented on the button layout. I think people are just speculating that there’s 6 buttons for the use of future modding and/or adding games that aren’t Neo Geo. Idk if or when that will happen but that seems to be the logic. I can’t really account for everyone else’s experience, but I’ve been playing mine pretty hard since I got it and I’ve had no issues with the buttons personally, definitely no stuck buttons for me. If you really are a fan of Neo Geo games I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed. And if the buttons are that much of an issue you can always swap them out for higher quality ones. Modders claim it’s super easy.
@@chase5546 just got this played it for 1 hour stuck it back in the box and put on ebay and sold it, the thing is too small it smashes my hand , speakers distorting ,buttons suck & is a piece of shit
@@EMMETTCULLENHALE I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it. As far as the buttons sticking, I haven’t had that problem and I been playing mine everyday. The option to upgrade them is there however. Also the size is 3/4 comparable to the arcade1ups. The fact you’re paying $500 for a smaller version of a several thousand dollar unit I’d still say it’s a great value especially if you hack it. Speakers can also be upgraded. I found them to be more than loud enough. As far as distortion in sound, I haven’t experienced that unless you’re referring to sound issues present in the original games. I really am sorry you didn’t like it.
You can change the difficulty if you’re in AES mode for these games. Once you boot them up go to options on the start screen. I’ve never heard of adjusting the difficulty while in MVS mode on any system.
Hey thanks for posting this, I ordered one a few days ago. I'm very excited :)
Love this machine

Dude I highly suggest trying smooth scaling. It makes most games look better.
I tried that one and it’s ok. It’s like the setting for the Neo Geo minis. I don’t mind it but pixel scaling seems to be the clearest to me.
The best video review I've seen on this cabinet 👌👌👌😎😎 this video is fun to watch
Thanks a lot! I was definitely just winging it lol.
@@chase5546 😎😎😎😎😎 flawless victory

喋りすぎ！
What is the reason that they couldn't put the dipswitches on this system? Having this at home should give you the option to pick the difficulty level
You can change the difficulty if you’re in AES mode for these games. Once you boot them up go to options on the start screen. I’ve never heard of adjusting the difficulty while in MVS mode on any system.
