California Games on the Master System

And a few years later Megaman on the Megadrive

James pond was awesome at the time too

And I spent FAR too much of my early teens in the arcades playing streetfighter II and mortal kombat

Sorry mate Neo Geo consoles have come down massivly in the last couple of years so unless its totally unmarked (and I mean unmarked) with it original box in pristine none faded condition your be lucky to get more than £150 for it.

I'm interested to know what games you have aswell as certain games from certain regions of the world can fetch fortunes again depending on condition. Neo Geo collectors are the most anal in the video game world.
For instance a genuine European Metal Slug cartridge in its case would be worth as much as $2000-$2850 but then other mega common games like Art of Fighting and World Heros etc are worth £15

How many times did I knock one out to Chun-Li or Blaze from Streets of Rage (answers on a postcard to...)



Sonic the Hedgehow - what an amazing game. I even bought a Jap Megadrive so it would play even faster. I had the first level in 27 seconds done.

Here's something I just found when looking for Streets of Rage info FPMSL:

Paul

your right about the price of the consels tho they have come down a hell of alot but my machine is totally mint and unmarked box is mint also

the games i have got with the Geo

Samurai Showdown 1 (jap)
Samurai Showdown 2 (jap)
King of fighters
super side kicks

I stoped buying the games because they were mega expensive well from the computer place where i use to get the games from



I use to have mad computer sessions at my house with all my mates

bomber man (super nintendo) was the best on 4 player mode we nearly got into a fight because we use to wind each other up when they use to get blown up fook me the good old days
