You should have at least a few friends. Of course my friends don't play neogeo at all. I had a few in pittsburgh that I used to play with all the time, but they graduated. I had a few in DC when I went to high school, but again I graduated, and it was a boarding school, and they were all international students so most are overseas now. So I play by myself, knowing the games just aren't as fun anymore.

Hmm, I think most of my friends think I'm crazy, but are pretty cool about it. My one friend will even play me in Neo quite a bit, so it's pretty cool.

One of my friends thinks I am mad for spending that much on a game.

Another doesn't have a Neo, but I borrowed it to him when I went on vacation, and he's been a Samurai Spirits freak ever since.

I convinced two of my other friends to buy Neos.

Another one of my friends plays ROMS and wants to buy a Neo.

I have two close friends that are gamers. One has an MVS setup, and one wants to get a home system with a convertor. They understand to an extent the madness which is Neo collecting. But think I'm mental to want all these high priced home carts when I could buy all of them cheaply in MVS format. Perhaps they are right, but I just get that special feeling from home carts that cannot be obtained through MVS.

The question should be "Can you and your friends control their passion for the NEO" cuz all my friends want a NEO and have always wanted on since the early 90's. Some of you guys who have friends who think the Neo is old and it sux just don't know what kind of position they are in when they touch the controls and actually play the games. If me and my buddies had a Neo, We'd make a damn shrine to it and like sacrifice virgins and shit.....

well maybe not but you get the point.

Yea, they laugh when I get blown up in Twisted Metal Black, but when they put in any kind of fighter and get their asses handed to them, the laughing dies quite a bit, cept for me LOL. Not a Neo example, but I thought it was hysterical when on my seventh straight win in Tekken Tag (I had just beaten like everyone in the room), they decided to "hanicap" me by covering my eyes. I proceeded to get a perfect by constantly performing 10 hit combos with Baek LOL. I am now no longer allowed to play Tekken Tag with them <img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" />

My little cousins think "i'm the man" and i've noticed they are around alot more since i bought my CAB and now i'm in talks to buy a mint NEO TURF MASTERS, my dads buddies are now interested.

My friends think i'm mad and cant understand why i would pay £50 for a golf game from 1996, but they all love the Samurai series and 1 friend cant get enough of Super Sidekicks.

Mvs + loads of games = NEW BUDDIES

No, with the exception of SNK4EVER they don't understand. They think I'm insane, and they're probably right. Oh well... <img src="graemlins/smirk.gif" border="0" alt="[Smirk]" />

My friends think I'm nuts, but after playing KOF '96 and Sengoku 3 they loved it. One friend even wants to buy a neo just for Sengoku 3.
