Yeah but I have great memory playing at the arcade, which most kids today don't experience. And I mean a real arcade, a place totally dedicated to arcades games
I was the only teenager probably in my whole city that actually owned a Neo Geo AES in the early 90s. I pretty much had to have one when Samurai Showdown came out. Only thing that pissed me off was that it was censored, and I had to pay a guy to install a debug bios chip to get the blood.
The bad thing about finally getting one is when you realize the games cost like $200 on average. But the upshot of that is that when you got a game, you REALLY friggin appreciated it! And these were games meant to be appreciated, many being what I consider actual works of art. Some people think "oh, arcade games, so shallow, they're all cheap so they can take your quarters". But then you realize - almost every one of these games can hypothetically be finished with just one quarter. Almost everything that seems "cheap" can be figured out and overcome. It just takes passion and time, and these were games worthy of those.
Yup, I liked the SNES a lot, loved the Genesis but the console I wanted that was out of reach financially was the Neo Geo. Even the NG CD was a big out of range. The SNES and Genesis probably had better overall libraries but the tech in the AES was way ahead and it would've been awesome to have a true arcade experience at home back then. At least with the Wii Virtual Console, PS4 and Switch I've caught up on some of the stuff I missed over the years. Sengoku 3 and Mark of the Wolves among my favorite.
The part that I still remember the most about owning a NeoGeo back then was how incredible the sound was and how much digitized speech there was in the games. Like in NAM-1975 and Cyber-Lip, you had vocal narration between levels. It was near CD quality as well. This predated stuff like Genesis Sports Talk 🏈/⚾️ too, and that was very low bitrate anyway. The Neo graphics were of course amazing, but it’s still the sound that got me the most back then. I still own a system today along with a modestly sized Neo•Geo AES collection and still appreciate it.
I love Neo Geo games even though I never own one but some of my favorites include Fatal Fury, Samurai Showdown, Art of Fighting, and Metal Slug series. Thanks for the video HCG!
The college I went to back in the day had a Shock Troopers 2 machine in the cafeteria that we spent a buttload of time on. I remember an outside speaker giving us a talk there, but the sound of the cabinet was so overpowering that no one could hear him until the principle stormed off to the corner and unplugged it. Good times 😂
Thanks for the excellent walk down memory lane! I also grew up in arcades (49 yo now) and have such fond memories of SNK Neo Geo's heyday. Samurai Showdown 2 is my top game... complete masterpiece ahead of time.
I love the Neo-Geo. I first read about it in an EGM in Spring of 1990. Then I started saving up my money in preparation for it. Before buying it my brother and I used to play it in a local arcade. It was pretty amazing to think that the home games would look and sound just like the arcade versions. Anyway, my top 15 games. Most of them are based on nostalgia and the amazing times I had playing them on the AES in 1990. Also keeping in mind that there wasn't a single fighting game in sight. 01. Baseball Stars Professional 02. Nam-1975 03. Metal Slug 3 04. Cyber-Lip 05. League Bowling 06. Top Player's Golf 07. Baseball Stars 2 08. Magician Lord 09. Ninja Combat 10. Metal Slug X 11. Last Resort 12. Ghost Pilots 13. The Super Spy 14. Blazing Star 15. Riding Hero
I loved a lot of SNKs games before the Neo Geo and sadly didn't get to experience the MVS in arcades much at all, but, I did like the ports of things like Samurai Shodown & World Heroes to the 16-bit home consoles. One of my favorite Neo Geo games (other than the first Shock Troopers) has been Ghost Pilots, even though it's simple, I really like the presentation / design. Awesome video, man!
Neo Geo AES has a special place in my heart. I was studying high school in Singapore back in 1993 and I saved up for years to buy the system. I just could not afford it. I ended up buying the Neo Geo CD system instead. I spent so much time playing it back then. Now, I am a business man and I have recently started collecting the AES games. I try to go for the full collection, both US and Japanese releases. I have AES Ninja Master US version and it costed me around USD $19,000!!! This thing is not for everyone.
Johnny Millenium. A man who's passion (and clearly STYLE) is surpassed by NO ONE! The Neo Geo Games felt like it was looking into the future. The graphics and gameplay were well beyond their years. Metal Slug and Samurai Showdown are up there for me.
Great video, Johnny! I still have a soft spot for the early Neo Geo games, especially Magician Lord and League Bowling. I've been watching for 11 years, since the beginning, since you were the first guy talking about the stuff I liked, PC engine, Neo Geo, Capcom CPS, and 80s anime. Thanks for so many years of great content!
Just discovered your channel; I love it! I want to pick up some of these awesome games on the Switch. I'm also excited for more information on the Turbografx 16 mini, too! I owned Bust-A-Move 2 on the PS1, aka Puzzle Bobble 2 on the Neo Geo. It was one of the games that came with my PS1 when I was only 8 years old!
I love SNK, and the NEO GEO, but I'll never be able to afford one, so I've been thankful for the various home console, and PC ports over the years, and when a KOF comes out it's one of the game I will buy at full price day one!!
Loved this video. The neogeo fighting games have always been my favourite games, after the capcom street fighter series. They had so many great characters. But the neogeo had many other types of good games too. Like crossed swords. And Neo turf masters. Such a great arcade machine.
I have a custom CMVS and a MVS multi cart, and that is as far as I can go with the Neo Geo when it comes to original Hardware. Amazing system, and incredible library of games. Great top 10 Johnny ;)
Love this video! I'm currently looking to download a bunch of the ACA NeoGeo games on Switch and this definitely helped. I appreciate your perspective and personal experiences.
I'm not a big fighting game fan and even I bought Garou: Mark of the Wolves on PS4. Amazing spritework and animations. I would also add that Windjammers is a ton of fun as well. Got my kids hooked on it and they play it regularly.
I have always loved Neo Geo games(Samurai Showdown was my favorite). You should do a video on the Xbox, PlayStation, and others collections for those of us that don't have the OG hardware.
The cool thing about pixel art - it's timeless. Many early 3D/polygonal games look terrible, even through rosy glasses, but good sprite and pixel work just remains beautiful.
I feel like those of us who love the World Heroes series are because we played it at an arcade back in the day. =) I first played WH on an MVS at a convenience store and still play it from time to time on my Neo Geo (I've got 3 of the games on NeoCD and 1 for AES, would love to own them all someday).
Good list! I loved playing most of these in the arcades growing up. I would've killed to have had my own AES console to play these games at home, but being a kid in a middle class family, that wasn't gonna happen. I always had to do with the watered down SNES and Sega ports. Luckly these days, we have compilations of some of the big franchises on PS2 and what not or download them individually. They may not be the authentic experience but they are a MUCH cheaper alternative.
I am not familiar with any of these games or this system for that matter but I love watching your videos regardless because I love how passionatly you talk about games!
I never had a NEO-GEO. I remember playing a lot of Fatal Fury and Samurai Showdown in the arcades though. They were always so expensive. I don't think there is a NEO-GEO game that doesn't have amazing graphics or gameplay for that matter.
I introduced my brother to neo geo games properly on the xbox 360 and wii. He fucking loves metal slug, king of the monsters and he's 50/50 on king of fighters. (he isn't into competitive fighting games like I am) We had so much fun playing these games back in the day and he still goes back to some of the metal slug games.
I've been gaming since the early 80s and I was unfamiliar with the majority of those games. They should release a new expanded Neo Geo collection on modern consoles.
Best console of all time for me. Here's my top 10 in no particular order. Windjammers, Samurai Shodown 2, Baseball Stars 2, Metal Slug 3, Magician Lord World Heroes 2 Jet, King of Fighters 94/95, Alpha Mission 2, Real Bout Fatal Fury, Sengoku.
I never grew up with the Neo Geo(I grew up with the super nintendo) nor owned one. But I fell in love with the Neo Geo games a few years back. These games sound good and look great for retro games. They play very well. Neo Geo fighters are my go to for fighting games besides Guilty Gear. I have spent over a $100 just buying these on my ps4. That's not mentioning older console ports. I wish I could collect for Neo Geo. Neo Geo games are making me into a retro gamer.
Johnny goes up against the yakuza in a seedy arcade in the 80’s. That’s how good samurai showdown and some of these snk games were at the time, you did what you had to do to play them..😎
I'm no expert on the Neo Geo or fighting games at all, but during the Wii Virtual Console era I got the two The Last Blade games because I thought they just looked insanely beautiful so much that bashing my head into a complicated fighter was worth it just because of it.
The Last Blade series CHANGED MY LIFE. I always thought in Spinmaster when he first comes on screen he yells "Let's fuck 'em up!" Haha I'm sure he doesn't say that though. Metal Slug X (2) is the one I always seem to gravitate to. Shock Troopers 1 + 2 are both great co-op games. Art of Fighting 3 has incredible animation. I think if I had to pick my number one game it'd be The Last Blade 2
Yea one of the best consoles ever, amazing graphics and everything about it was amazing especially at the time, my nieghbor had one growing up, i was blown away, ive been trying to find him on social media see if he still has it and wants to sell it lolol, until then i have the full set on emulation
I feel pretty bad that out of all the games mentioned in this video I haven't had a chance to play any of them, but it looks like I got a lot of great titles to look forward to when I can get a chance to play them.
Shock troopers 2 is the only neogeo game I have. That's weird. I didn't know it was expensive. I bought it back in the day in the year 2000 for 30 bucks at a yard sell. It was the cheapest neogeo game there. I wanted fatal fury special, but that guy was selling it for 90 bucks. Great list by the way. A very respectable list.
I played(and completed) Metal Slug 3 on the ps4, and I have to say that it's a great game. Good variety of enemies, weapons, and battle vehicles. One of the best Run N' Gun games!
I enjoy the arcade machines when I get the chance to come across them. But the home console is insane. When it came out it was insanely expensive. Honestly it is almost the same price now lol. Some games are a grand or more, but for the most part everything else is the same-ish lol
I really like the Neo Geo Games, I play a lot Samurai Shodown, Garou, KoF2002, Blazing Star, The Last Sword but even back in the day I thought this console was definetly overpriced. I had SNES and Mega Drive and never understood why the Neo Geo is supposed to be that much better. But when you play Garou you know it's a different league.
After I heard about Terry coming to Smash bros, I looked into Neo Geo stuff and ended up building a consolized MVS and got KOF98 and SvC Chaos for it. Such an awesome system!!
@@BruceCultureAllen I dont play it like I did in the late 90s so I admit its rare I have a long run before death but I enjoy it more than Blazing Star currently but that could change when I next play Blazing.
You should have included some of the great shooters on the system, such as Aero Fighters, Ghost Pilots or Blazing Star. Or Sengoku. Or Last Blade. Or Savage Reign. Oh gosh what a great system.
i never played much neo geo games even thou some are prety good but the one i really liked at the time and i thougth was really great is metal slug series. it was violent and comic at the same time. really liked those games.
Neo Geo was a weird one to me as a teen in the 90s. The price tag and graphics were incredible and I found it intriguing but there was just one problem: I utterly loathe fighting games. As a teen it felt like the AI would go into ‘pissed off boss mode’ every single time and become unhittable. Of course that wasn’t the case, but to my 12 or 13 year old brain it felt that way. Even these days I hardly ever play them and would say my main gaming consists of rpg, adventure, action, platformers and the occassional non-generic fps. The only Neo Geo I really wanted to try was the Samurai Shodown rpg but it never got a western release. Edit: I loved the Metal Slug series back in the day.
This is why Neo Geo holds up even today and why it's so collectable, the system had the best 2d sprite work/pixel art ever
"i remember owning the Neo Geo as a kid growing up!"
-- nobody, ever
:D
I got a Neo Geo CD when I was 11
in 2012.
I was a weird kid.
Yeah but I have great memory playing at the arcade, which most kids today don't experience. And I mean a real arcade, a place totally dedicated to arcades games
Hmm well im not froms US, but i do remember seeing Metal Slug back in 1996 or 1997 in Yugoslavia, arcade machines and stuff
@@someguy43210 You are lucky mate:)

Neo Geo was the gold standard in the 90's... almost mythical.
Truly a legendary company in the gaming industry.

The last art of fighting had the best Neo Geo animation in my opinion
What an episode the NeoGeo was and still is a pipe dream. That system is larger than life.
Love this video! I'm currently looking to download a bunch of the ACA NeoGeo games on Switch and this definitely helped. I appreciate your perspective and personal experiences.
Good list, but I highly prefer the first shock troopers over the second.
I use to like the second more but I'm like you...in recent years I'm enjoying the first one more
Me too. The first one is 10 times better.
everyone says the first is better
The first is considerably better, no contest whatsoever
I'm not a big fighting game fan and even I bought Garou: Mark of the Wolves on PS4. Amazing spritework and animations.
I would also add that Windjammers is a ton of fun as well. Got my kids hooked on it and they play it regularly.
Awww....No love for King of the Monsters, a great follow up to Rampage even though it wasn't related to it.
I have always loved Neo Geo games(Samurai Showdown was my favorite). You should do a video on the Xbox, PlayStation, and others collections for those of us that don't have the OG hardware.

svc, sengoku 3, neo drift out, league bowling and turf masters, too damn many to mention.
Why does everyone seem to have 2 ads at the beginning of there vids lately it's pissing me off
yeah they've gotten pretty aggressive, more and more are unskippable too
J Lea Just an aggressive ploy to force you to buy TH-cam premium or whatever it is. Not going to lie, it’s starting to wear me down.
So they can get paid...duh
How am I just discovering this channel now? You are amazing. Well spoken, charismatic, and so much positive enthusiasm.

I really want an MVS cabinet and one of those All-in-One cartridges
Pumping out those videos. Keep em' coming.
My experience growing up playing neo geo was at the arcade. It was a pipedream to own the console.
Neo Drift Out, Neo Geo Turf Masters and Ninja Commando are some of my favourites. I really want to get a copy of NAM-1975 on MVS.
I still remember playing the arcade version of World Heroes. Wow, that was a ling time ago.

Magical Drop 3 is my favorite Neo Geo game.
Get the MVS to AES converter for some of the more expensive AES games! You can even purchase the shockboxes and labels for them too.
This was a great watch I missed most of this as no one I knew had it.
These games still look absolutely amazing.
I've been gaming since the early 80s and I was unfamiliar with the majority of those games. They should release a new expanded Neo Geo collection on modern consoles.
Best console of all time for me. Here's my top 10 in no particular order. Windjammers, Samurai Shodown 2, Baseball Stars 2, Metal Slug 3, Magician Lord
World Heroes 2 Jet, King of Fighters 94/95, Alpha Mission 2, Real Bout Fatal Fury, Sengoku.
Awesome Video Johnny. Just wish you would have put a list of the Games Below.
I love the outfit and your show. Keep up the good work.
Love my massive Neo Geo collection. I’ll be doing a Pickups collection soon from EBay and some local shops I went to. Picked up around 40 games.
I really love Twinkle Star Sprites from them. So unique
I never grew up with the Neo Geo(I grew up with the super nintendo) nor owned one. But I fell in love with the Neo Geo games a few years back. These games sound good and look great for retro games. They play very well. Neo Geo fighters are my go to for fighting games besides Guilty Gear.

When I was kid I dreamt of owning Nam-1975 on Neo Geo.
#1 NEO TURF MASTERS
I just realized something... With his return to TH-cam I think AlphaOmegaSin should cosplay as Terry Bogard. He has the hair for it.
Johnny goes up against the yakuza in a seedy arcade in the 80’s. That’s how good samurai showdown and some of these snk games were at the time, you did what you had to do to play them..😎
I'm no expert on the Neo Geo or fighting games at all, but during the Wii Virtual Console era I got the two The Last Blade games because I thought they just looked insanely beautiful so much that bashing my head into a complicated fighter was worth it just because of it.
To me Mark Of The Wolves is the greatest 2D fighter of all time.
The first real bout game is the best because you can knock blue Mary's top off in the water!
No windjammers :( ah well, those were 10 quality titles tho. Hard to not pick every game in the catalog.
Spin Master is so great!!! It's been my first 1cc arcade way back then.
You are so intense and personal. Great channel
You've got to do a Top 10 Fighting Games!
The Last Blade series CHANGED MY LIFE. I always thought in Spinmaster when he first comes on screen he yells "Let's fuck 'em up!" Haha I'm sure he doesn't say that though. Metal Slug X (2) is the one I always seem to gravitate to. Shock Troopers 1 + 2 are both great co-op games. Art of Fighting 3 has incredible animation.

Love your enthusiasm dude. Never played any Neo Geo game, but you make me want to buy a Neo Geo now haha
Awesome video. Love your passion!
Neo Geo games wipe the floor with today’s games
This must have been done before the "evil" video.
Shock troopers 2 is the only neogeo game I have. That's weird. I didn't know it was expensive. I bought it back in the day in the year 2000 for 30 bucks at a yard sell. It was the cheapest neogeo game there. I wanted fatal fury special, but that guy was selling it for 90 bucks. Great list by the way. A very respectable list.

i'm just not into fighting games anymore so i'm not really big on the neogeo
I believe Baseball 2020 was my first neo geo experience.
No Johnny!
You got rid of the piercing!

The absolute golden era ❤
Will always love some Samurai Showdown

Best SNK game is Last Blade 2. Love your channel.
You actually look much more like Shot Maker from that Neo Turf Masters golf game.
Remember the Wii virtual console had neo Geo games but it's the console version with 5 continuous
The characters sleeves are cut off not frayed like Tassles. I'm calling the cos-play police!
Great passion my friend :)
And now we can get these games in compilations really cheap
Dude you have Baseball Stars 1! I like that more than the sequel because they messed up the camera.
Spinmaster is so underrated
Never played a neo geo, but I have the 2000s fighters on my switch
Bust a Move
Real Bout 2 NC
Shock Troopers
Metal Slug 3
Mark of Wolves
Pulstar
Sengoku 3
Top Hunters
SHODOWN V SPECIAL
Street Hoop
Pulstar is awesome but too difficult. How often do you get to see beyond stage 3 without cheats?

As a teen it felt like the AI would go into ‘pissed off boss mode’ every single time and become unhittable. Of course that wasn’t the case, but to my 12 or 13 year old brain it felt that way.
Even these days I hardly ever play them and would say my main gaming consists of rpg, adventure, action, platformers and the occassional non-generic fps. The only Neo Geo I really wanted to try was the Samurai Shodown rpg but it never got a western release. Edit: I loved the Metal Slug series back in the day.
