This is a spinoff the topic of "what was the longest time you've spent on a game".. but

Since the Neo Geo home system is based on the arcade hardware (which was meant to run for 8-12 hours at a time easily) what is the longest that anyone has let their Neo Geo run without encountering any tech problems?

Since I just got my system, I yesterday played FFSpecial for 3hours and Super Sidekicks for about 1hour after that. Now I don't got time trough I got school. In 3 more days I can play (allot) again <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

There's an off switch? <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0">

I've left my Neo Geo AES on for around 18 hours tops - no problems.

I've only had problems with flakey modded systems. Hopefully, !arcade! will be able to fix that problem for me soon.

I had my MVS machine going for 10 hours once. Other than that I had a home cart system with MotW running for like 8 hours straight. It was a fighting melee.

I left my home cart system on for about a week and a half straight back in '93.
No problems here.
