MS1
MS2
Faselei (just got it, really cool so far)
Last Blade
CFC

These are all of the ones I have right now and they are great, also played MotM (awsome) and KOF R2(awsome), Sonic is also a really fun game, avoid Dive Alert at all costs....

Most of the fighting games, except maybe Fatal Fury (heard it's pretty weak), MS1/2, and Cardfighters Clash.

buster,

You won't believe how good a handheld fighting game can be until you've played Match of the Millenium. Please get that right away! It's awesome.

After that, look at what you like to play on the big boy Neo and decide by that. For instance, if you like Last Blade get Last Blade pocket (it's very much like the arcade original).

Also, you may like King of Fighters R1 better than R2, so check that out before you go and buy one. Of course, like me, you can't go wrong with both. :D

I really recommend trying to find them all!

Even the more 'crap' games are good!
Why?
Well, its weird but the whole system has its own quicky charm that manages to save even casino games!
Besides, the lesser games are cheap as chips, so it would be rude not to add them to your collection.


hmmm,
Thats not much help is it?

OK, My favs are...

Ganbare
MS 1 & 2
Cotton
Turf Masters
Puyo Pop
Puzzle Bobble
Match of the Millenium
Dark Arms
Sonic
Sam Sho 2
LB
Gals Fighters
Faselei
