What exactly does this mean?

<a href="http://www.snkneogeousa.com/zupaeng.html" target="_blank">http://www.snkneogeousa.com/zupaeng.html</a>


No mention of NGF; are they going to release it themselves? Or is this a nod to NGF?

DISCUSS!!!

Looks to me like they are doing it themselves. Hope Hope Hope! I saw no mention of NGF. Other opinions?

It's absolutly not the real thing!
And the picture is taken from a shop in france:
<a href="http://www.akibaweb.com/neo_geo/neo_cart/zupapa_a.jpg" target="_blank">picture of ZUPABA from AKIBA</a>
You can read AKIBA in the lower right corner!
And this is the NGF cover!

Even if it would be the real insert, there wound't be the "AKIBA" logo on it if this site was official or if the people from this ssite were surious.... It make me think of a big joke or that the history will repeat! :(

Even if this tempororary, this is absolutly not professional!
At the time where Playmore and other EVOGA try to make NGF and other unoffical web sites close, it's really outrageous to see that!!

That is very unproffessional... God only knows how no-one noticed that. But anyway - it's nice to see a USA site open again. :D

It's not the NGF insert, but it's taken from another converted cart.

If they were making the game they would know zupapa isn't 46Megs.

OK thanks for the explaination, however why the fuck would they show the cover of a converted cart? That site is just whacked, its gotta be.

I'll be damned @ the Sports Team being in the background of the site. lol <img src="graemlins/smirk.gif" border="0" alt="[Smirk]" /> They actually look like the artwork from KOF 2k2........... if they were playable characters. :(

What is interesting, is Playmore has not linked to them yet. Maybe later in the day they will do an update. That will prove if this is a ligitimate web site. I saw a contact number, but no info on ordering. If they are listing ROTD, does this mean there will be another production run for the US?

Listen guys, the graphics designers were probably franticlly trying to get the site done on time, needed a pic of a case, ripped on off NGF and modded it, and didn't know any better. Nothing to get worked up about, because if you look closely you can tell that the "Zupapa" was slapped on in Photoshop

This might not be good. Does anyone know for certain the freaks aren't working at the re-opened snk?


What a frightening thought.

It'd take any designer worth his salt 3 minutes, literally 180 seconds, to remove the "Akiba" and change the stripe colors.

But it certainly has a 'slapped together' look.

allright, thats it!
it is dipshits like most of you above that have ruined this site with some of the most idiotic posts I have ever seen!
those game pages (rotd,kof 2002,slug 4,ZUPAPA!,etc) are for the MVS releases, do you hear me, MVS!
snkneogeousa is responsible for the arcade/MVS not home games. that mock up zupapa insert is just that A MOCK UP!
it IS NOT the ngf insert, Chris and Dion are not working for neogeousa, there will be no release from playmore of zupapa for the home cart system (at least not from what has been presented thus far) and lastly, so many of you here are so stupid it's not even funny. if I see another post about how "SNK is back!!!" all hell is going to break loose and I am gonna kill someone.
just because neogeousa puts up A web site does not mean that SNK has been resurected. this company has been open in that same office for almost a year. the bottom line is:

-the SNK name being included in the neogeousa title is a double edged sword. most companies got burned by snk back in the day, if neogeousa doesnt use that name well (like putting the snk logo,meg count boxes, etc back on home releases) than they should not have done it to begin with.

- this is NOT the rebirth that this "neogeousacth" person made it out to be. you all let him blow some smoke up your ass.

- at the time snkneogeousa is NOT selling any type of arcade cabinets. why do think that the arcade market died here. A large part of it was due to almost all babs bieng big dedicated messes that took longer to pay off through proffits. selling cabs of A dedicated standard is A surefire way to decrease proffits.

so next time, think before you post. it is getting extremily annoying wading through this shit.

NGFs Zupapa has the Logo on the glove.

Mitch, all I'm saying is that it is odd that they would promote a MVS realease with art from a home cart.

yes, I know, I was not particuarly lashing out at you. just those who actually think this signifies some type of homw release. for all we know it COULD, but that would be bad because that is just some sloppily made page and A bad indication of how snkneogeousa is going to do business. I don't think that is the way it will go down though. but yes, that is A home brew insert being used and its not too professional.
