VIC-A Neo Geo System is Really The KOREAN RELEASE?

According to this auction, the system that I an one other Forum member have, the VIC-A is a Korean Released unit! Very cool:

What's the different among US/JPN/Korean version of AES system? I only saw Korean words above Neo Geo logo and company name written in Korean and that's all. Hmmm....$550 for it....maybe a little bit too much

I think mine is even stranger than that. I don`t have any serial numbers on the bottem, and mine doesn`t have any type of Korean writing on it. Judging by the picture of the system offered on ebay, it seems that the guy has a normal power pack. Mine on the other hand isn`t a pack that you plug in, rather a plug that comes from a pack in the middle of the power cord. Also i can change the voltage from 220 to 110. I just checked the power pack and it does say VIC-A on it with a bunch of Korean writing. I can`t figure out why I have no serial number, and why my games have no blood?
The mystery unfolds!

Hey Dream. Does your korean system have better picture and sound quality than the japanese? I'm curious to know.

Oh how much I miss Korea. Hopefully I'll visit my relatives in Seoul in 2002 to watch the World Cup (woohooo!). I'll also go to Japan, which will be my first time!!! Can't Wait.

It's great to be Korean, eh? There aren't any derogatory terms explicitly for us so the honkies have to use other slang terms and adapt them. Hahahaha.

Just a little humor.

Ahem...About two years ago, When my brother went to Korea for a visit (more like a tour duty for USUHS), I ordered a cdz system. He couldn't find one, but he called me up saying that they had bunch of Japanese Neo Geo system w/ a old style controller for $55. What did I do? I ordered a joystick instead for $30. I was looking for cdz then. Last year, when he went back again, I did order the system, but he said that they were removed, because Neo Geo stuff were considered archaic. Ugh...I might go there and Japan this year. After meeting up with my relatives and friends, Hopefully, I will be hunting for Neo Geo stuff at bergain prices

The Koreans must have only played SS3, before they labeled the Neo Archaic ... HA HA

Anyway, my Korean Neo doesnt have the writing above the name, just the VIC-A, and its a featherweight unit. It plays games in Japanese (be its korean text, I dont know either) blood and bounce is on. The video looks great, but I dont know if its better then others, Iv never seen the color bleed on any Neo, and this is my 8th now.
