I second that. Looked into it a few months ago since a few of the AES conversions or AES carts were cheaper and more available than their MVS counterparts. But unfortunately due to different pins it would take quite the effort to make it happen.

With the recent prices of MVS carts going bat-shit crazy it almost seems that this would be the way to go.

That's what I'm hoping, ready for the prices to go back to what they were even a year ago so I can get back to my collection.

yes. you need to get the Pranslation converter, and flip it upside down.

Since I'm also a newcomer it might be a bit biased, but do you really think that people just try to jump on the bandwagon? Don't know, I for one just took finally the plunge after debating for years to get into Neo Geo only to realise that none of the current mainstream efforts (emulation on PSP7PS3, NGX, whatnot) came close to what they promised.
If only a handful of people have similar motivations, combined with the realisation that they still play old games over and over while trying to just get rid of new releases, they are here to stay.

Maybe if the NGX was actually any good - but the effect was that it reminded people how great the neo was, and made them want to play it in the right format.

Even 'good' emulation on the PS3 didn't bring prices down. Then again those games were so expensive that one might aswell just start with the real thing.

The Neo Geo insanity will come full circle once we start seeing MVS conversions, such as MVS Magician Lords being made out of NOS AES carts.

Good emulation on the xbox did. About 10 years ago, prices dipped and there was a polarization. Somewhere along that timeline, certain games shifted from cheap to expensive (Sengoku 2001, Shock Troopers 2, Rage of the Dragons), while others dropped further (SSIV, Last Blade 2, any KoF except 2003).
The PS3 is possibly the second shittiest system to play Neo Geo games on, next to the PSX.

We need more Neo memes, this one is great. This reminds me how I want to make jokes and references to Neo stuff in real life but you're the only person I know that would get it, lol.
Lol, I've already converted a baseball stars 2 and fatal fury Special over to MVS. Magician Lord is actually the next one. Got a baseball stars 1 boards clear of the Roms. Just got to move over the Magician Lord ones when I have time. Hakko 808 makes pretty quick work of it.
