Strikers was supposedly released last month, and no one is talking about it! Didn't anyone get it?

I would buy, but 400 for any AES is a tad high right now.

Yea, I agree. $400 for a game like strikers isn't worth it. You can play it on your PS or Saturn and get virtually the same game. It doesn't have much replay value either.

If it were $150 I would go for it.

Kuryakin: in a word... no I am not sure if they have even given their concent. I would be curious to find out what, if anything, !arcade! did to get this release into fruitation.

no i ve seen no info about
!arcade! even obtaining the rights
to the game.
it is to my knowledge that they are
only converting the cart for the collectors market.
i Seriously doubt that any rights were given.
i think its rather funny.
!arcade! view these boards quite often from what ive seen
and they usually dont come out and say anything
unless something bad is issued against them.
i wonder why they never respond to legitimate
questions like this...
o well i suppose these and more questions
would be answered at the NEO SUMMIT thing
they been planning..
i seriously dont understand why everything
in the NEO communty has to be so secretive though..
i m sure there would be skads more people
interested if they knew if the cart was legit in
some form.

rarehero, I agree with you.
I just dont' know why people love to keep Neo secrets. C'mon, Neo Geo is just one of so-many consoles, not pride and social status.
I just don't get it.
To me, I feel Neo Geo world is more like "Collector's world" than "Gamer's world".
No wonder more and more people stay away from this community.

i know silent..
its not like the NEO community is
very big.
i mean come on.. there is a very finite
amount of people in it. that even have
a NEOGEO.
why does everyone constantly keep us in the dark..
the collector mentality of the NEO makes this a very tiring
hobby..
i understand about SNK withholding info
about a new arcade game... thats big stuff..
but a reproduction of a game?
eh...

rarehero, I'm speechless at this time.
On one hand, we want everyone to support SNK/Neo/Legit, but on the other hand, we keep everything in the deepest black hole.

"We'll reveal a big surprise in the near future..."
"Re-production will become possible if......"
"Just read XXXXX and you'll see Neo will resurrect....bla bla bla"

Man, it isn't right. Unless it's top secret to prevent your competitors trying to steal, there is no reason to keep "secret" coz Neo has no competitor at all (who? Sega? Sony?)

Neo gamers will become so "fragile" that everytime they hear some Neo news.....

Getting US Metal Slug AES or Ninja Master cart is like seeing a new heaven and earth....

Wake up, people!

The game is delayed. This game is not talked about that much because it is an OK game, and it is more of a collectors' game. It is an OK game because you will get about a half hour worth of play. It is a collectors' game because it is an encrypted game unreleased game. Add these two together, and you will have nobody talking about this great collectors' game.
