Have you pre-ordered your Neo Geo AES Plus yet?
+Showing all 107 replies.

How much is it? Does it come with the games or do you have to buy those too?

Can you buy the arcade stick separately? I only want that, not the console
>>
>>737096676
$90 each plus tips

$1000?! Why?

The neo geo was always stupid expensive, in all fairness.

They should sell this for $30 as furniture.

Why the fuck would you ever buy a Neo Geo in this day and age
>hurr but Metal Slug
That shit is everywhere

Go fucking pirate the arcade or home release then

Shut up, nigger. You'd pay for this shit.

lmao wtf

If you think $350 is ridiculous, go price check a boxed AES and legit Metal Slug these days. Insane.

>>737098796
Anon, this company makes emulation boxes, not true recreations of original hardware. This is for ripping off retarded snkeks
>>
>>737098907
This is not emulation

The funny thing about this, is that all of the games on this are made by companies SNK killed

Made by Eolith, now defunct

In fact only one of these is a true snk game, and the people who made it are long gone.
>>
>>737096676
$250 by itself, $350 with Metal Slug and maybe one other thing, I dunno, and $1000 for several games and a memory card with the machine. It's supposed to be a wholesale rebuild/replacement for the original AES. But looking at that controller it looks absolutely off, smaller buttons, wrong layout and colors, looks cheap as shit despite the claims of microswitches. They say this thing is using genuine engineering recreations of the old Neo Geo hardware, but I highly doubt they actually did that.
It looks like one gigantic overpriced collector's scam unless you're already highly invested into Neo Geo hardware and the cartridges.

>>737096612
FPGA thingy or just a regular emulation console?
>>737098796
probably fpga for that price

>>737099778
Going off their previous releases, emulation console
>>
>>737099841
Man. That is pretty expensive, unless it can run ps2 emulator (if sideloaded)

Well given that the company doing it is German, not Japanese, that should already be tossing up massive red flags. But idiots will fall for it anyways

just buy that type of controller and use that shit with an emulator

Is it just an emulation box, or is it FPGA?
Does it at least output native 4K for better scaling?

They can't even get their $60 controllers right, they Fisher Price'd that shit. The Mini controllers from a couple years ago are probably higher quality than this thing despite being cheaper.

>>737101378
1080p output, they claim it's real hardware, no emulation, no FPGA, but a random German company perfectly recreating the AES is a bit suspicious.

i'm thinking this is gonna look GREAT on the shelf in my GameRoom

>>737101107
Magician Lord was the game you got with the original Neo Geo, it makes sense.

It's very cheap, retard.
A Switch 2 is over 400 dollars and you get no games.

No X? No patched version of 2 like on the collection?

No buy

Isn't KOF 2002 the one with K9999, the guy that couldn't appear in later games because of Akira copyright infringement?
>>
>>737102592
that was the prior one, 2001. but he only lasted these two, Neowave as unusable, and a mobile game, with cameos from other titles in the early 00s before he got wiped.
>>
>>737102538
>Everything is compatible with the original stuff, even the wireless controllers
Doesn't prove that this is an original hardware, might be an emulator with a cartridge slot for all I know. If you don't have a source to back up your claims then you're the retard here, fag.

>https://plaionreplai.com/products/neogeo-aes
>Gameplay on the NEOGEO AES+ is not achieved through emulation - instead the console is powered by its legacy ASIC chips, re-engineered by modern standards to accurately replicate the original machine's hardware and software. The system natively plays game software from both new and old game cartridges for the most authentic retro gaming experience. Not emulation, not FPGA approximation, but true console reincarnation etched back into silicon
Retard.

Is this going to crash the original hardware market?
>>
>>737096612
There is no fucking way there's a nostalgia market for the fucking neo geo of all things. Isn't this thing one of the most infamous flop consoles of all time?

I wish NEC was as dedicated and made a new PC-98.

>>737096947
350 aud is cheap, must be even cheaper in usd
>>
>>737096768
Are you fucking kidding me, holy fuck this shit is retarded.
>>
>>737104315
There is a huge market for Neo Geo hardware because of how prohibitively expensive it is.
The only reason it flopped in the first place was because it was exorbitantly costly.
If you like arcade games then Neo Geo is a pretty big deal.
>>
>>737104315
You underestimate nostalgiafags and collectors.
>>
>>737096612
It looks nice but all those games suck ass.
>>
>>737104404
Ironically probably cheaper than actually buying the individual carts and this will drop their value for the insane collectors. And the only flash cart solution for Neo Geo is already twice the cost of the new console by itself. NG prices are fucking retarded, it made sense because it was literal arcade hardware in your house back at the time but nowadays it's genuine nonsense.
>>
>>737104572
not wrong but I don't want to play any of these games lol
>>
>>737103164
KOF is shit bro
>>
Was thinking of picking up the neo geo collections on switch. 10games for $40.

or would the actual console be more worth it
>>
>>737104614
How will collectors justify paying 40.000$ for a new 1996 copy vs a new 2026 copy for 90$?

How can the Neo Geo market survive after this.
Please someone explain to me.
I mean there is no trick the contents of both are the same right?
The box,the artwork,the cartridge and game, and the manual, there is no trap it's the same game.
>>
>>737104919
collectors are retarded so who cares
>>
>>737104839
>$40
>$1000
idk which is better value
>>
>>737104919
And I say this as someone who has bought retro new games because I like physical but if you offer me for example Power Stone 2 for the Dreamcast new but the 2000 release at 250$ vs the exact same game but made in 2026 for 60$ i wouldnt even think about it and buy the new 2026 release.
>>
>>737104839
Worth would be pirating everything
If you choose to spend money it's for collection purposes, in which case the actual console is a nicer piece of decoration
>>
>>737104614
I mean repros have always existed, this isn't any different.

It will probably go down significantly but it will still be more expensive. It's still collectable.

better than 98, but the gap isn't big.

It would be hilarious charging that much for emulation.

The retard is you.
>>
>>737101269
The NeoGeo controllers aren't very good, you have much better options these days. The appeal is that you are playing a Neo Geo AES(+) on a Neo Geo controller.
>>
>>737105839
wrong, anyone that likes neogeo is a retard
>>
Poorfag coping pisses me off.
>wtf why would anyone want to buy videogames on the videogame board?
By all means do your thing and emulate if that's what you want but if you don't understand why people buy videogames you're a sub 60 IQ subhuman monkey.
>collectors are stupid
IT'S THE FUCKING HOBBY THE BOARD IS ABOUT MOUTHBREATHER

I swear you kids just want to argue for no reason

>>737106104
The information you first replied to was only about pricing. Then you focused on the qualities of the neo geo fans.

What is the best game on offer? Why are fucking golf and metal slug so expensive?

>>737104919
The cartridges work with the old hardware so yes, it's legit. The prices will crash apocalyptically hard lol
>>
>>737096808
They've priced it so that the $1k bundle gives you approx. $550 value in hardware and $900 in games, if purchased individually, so it's the games they're charging out the ass for.
>>

Feel free to burn your money if you want, no one's gonna stop you. 99.9% of humanity don't give a damn what you wanna do with your cash. Just hope you're happy with the expenditure and aren't simply mouthing off with zero interest in putting your money where your mouth is.
>>
>>737104315
Different markets then and now. Just the fact that they're reproducing retro hardware with authentic cartridges is something rare. Although if I was going to buy anything other than the white edition as a collector's item, I'd wait and see if what they say about not using emulation is true.
>>
>components weaker and less complex than a budget smartphone from 15 years ago
>that'll be $300, goy
this meme needs to end.
>>
>>737096612
I thought about it, but no matter what, with tax / shipping / likely tariffs, it'll be $400+ just to get the system and play a game or just buy a system and get a multicart at the going rates, so I think I'll just look into getting a rompack and loading them on my Analouge Pocket since it's likely all FPGA anyways at this point.

If the games weren't $90 and had a better selection, I'd be more interested, but the games they have are almost always in one of those collection packs they've been repackaging for 20+ years since at least the PS2 and Wii.
>>
>>737096768
Garbage selection. The neo geo is shit.

We're not talking about what we can or can't do, we're talking about discourse on this godforsaken board. It's the fucking videogame board, I'm tired of constantly seeing the same low iq posts about how people are stupid for buying videogames.
I don't mean specific games or consoles that might be shit, which is obviously fair game, I mean games and consoles in general.
>>
>>737096768
cheap considering the price of the official cards right now.
>>
>>737102592
Yes, but his exclusion has nothing to do with copyright infringement, if it was, then a lot of other characters would be exclused too(just look at Benimaru).
They removed him because SNK just simply hated the character.
>>
Getting actual new chips and everything for old hardware like this ain't easy so i still kinda doubt they really went all the way with this.
Maybe the ASIC chips are real but that doesn't mean they also got the YAMAHA sound and everything.
Will wait for a teardown/showcase before i make an order.

SEGA pulled some bullshit like this in the past as well by re-using old NOMAD chips for "new" Megadrive/Genesis hardware which had its issues.
>>
>>737098214
>Then go buy a fucking actual Neo Geo
Who's crazy enough to buy 30-year-old consoles to actually use them? If it's just to put them on a shelf like those fags usually do, fine, but if you're actually going to use them, you're wasting money on something where 50% of the components have already passed their useful life.
The other day I was watching a video of one of these suckers on YouTube. He has about 30 old consoles, 5 of which are in line for repair. He said he's already at the point where it takes him two months to find the parts to fix a console, and by the time he finally finishes the job, two other consoles start showing problems.
>>
>>737099953
Yes it is retard. nand chips on cartridges can and will lose their data just like Hard drives and SSDs will. Only optical media will last for a century+
>>
>>737096612
Cool stick but I got all the Metal Slug games for like $10 years ago.
>>
>>737104745
That whole list is the opinions of someone who doesn't play a single video game, it's so immediately easy to tell. Every single one of those opinions is retarded.
>>
>>737106015
Every discussion ever about buying an old game will have these retards polluting the whole thing. It never changes.
>ermm I know how to emulate so my (free) alternative is superior because i'm smart and you are dumb and there's no reason to buy anythig because i say so
No fucking shit you retarded braindead zoomoid, everyone knows how to emulate, I've been emulating since i found fucking goomba color online 24 years ago. I've emulated all this shit 1000 times. I want to own the physical media because I like it.
>pèople want to buy the things they like
WTF?? I can't fucking BELIEVE this is a thing, somebody explain it to me
>>
>>737110219
It's obviously NOT a Neo Geo, the technology changed over the years, the people working at the factories aren't the same.
