Just a simple question: How old are you?
TonK has posted a Topic in the NEWS forum telling that 60% of the people in the forums are kids trying to be noticed by the REAL Neo-Gamers and have no intentions of buying an expensive game.
I don't have anything against TonK, I'm just curious about the age of the people in the forums.

I'm 18. However I've been playing SNK games for as long as I can remember. AES and MVS and before that it was all about Ikari Warriors (I used to play it at this Truck Stop in Vermont when I went camping. Finally I got it for my NES but it's still better in the arcade.)

LOL...I worked my ass off for those 60 MVS games...But I had to get rid of them to Shawn because we both discussed that my best option would be AES. I bought a CD system yesterday and I'm buying MS1 and 2 CD from Eldios when he email me back <IMG SRC="smilies/veryangry.gif" border="0">

Neo-Geo is fun and its something I like.

I'm a contractor and I hate it sometimes!

Hey:

20 here...I used to live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. There is a Nickel City there (the chain of arcades owned by Capcom), and I used to go all the time just so I could play KOF '94, World Heroes 2 Jet, and Last Resort on their MVS. I'd wanted a Neo Geo console (AES or CD, I would have been thrilled either way) since I was like 12, but I come from a middle-class family and at that time my dad would have shit himself if I'd asked him to buy me a $300 video game machine.

Last month, I finally became the proud owner of a Neo Geo CD. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

TonK, WTF do you need Neo CD system?
For what? Just for not to scratch your $1200 Metal slug AES? LOL

Just go plug in that expensive plastic and metal into your AES......

You have money to get another one if it ruins...... <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

im 14, as stated many times before, and i own an ngh with 3 games (ss,ss2, wh2) and an mvs cab (19" 12 games, tss my most expensive)and i bought everything except my cab (it was a bd/confirmation present) and i work my ass off (not at a real job mind you) to save up and buy my games. its more rewarding when you save up for something than when you just have the money lying around, its like you really deserve it, IMO anyway

Tonk I thought you said

"As soon as I get my Metal Slug AES I'm going to throw it accross the room."

Now you want a Metal Slug CD so you won't touch your original. Make up your mind <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

By the way I am 20 years old. I will be 21 in September! Yeaa!!!
