congrats, I can imagine it's a great purchase.
One thing I'm wondering about though: is it really that tight ?

Have fun with all the great games to come now :)

It loosens up a little bit after you use it a few times but there are a few carts where you have use a little 'oomph' to get the cart in (my Windjammers cart for example). If you rock it back and forth a little as you're inserting it it's easier (just don't rock it too much or you'll break something!) ;)

Just got word that my Metal Slug MVS cart will be here soon. The Phantom has just paid for itself! :D

Congrats man. I received mine yesterday. Not exactly what I wanted to replace my cab, but it'll do for now :)

And yes, it is that tight. I could make some teenage references, but I'll leave that to your imagination. It's tight. We'll leave it at that.

No kidding, I though I was going to break something trying to load up my Sengoku 3 cart.

I like mine, but it reaks havoc with the zoom-out, and some people have said that MOTW has a white line down the center of the screen in some stages. However, this problem is with the system itself. It is a good purchase, and I recommend it. :)

I played SamSho 3 today and didn't notice any problems with the zoom in zoom out.
For those of us who don't have room for a MVS cab, the Phantom is the answer.

I have noticed problems with SSIV and Waku Waku 7. Nothing with KOF. It's more of an annoyance, not a determent from gameplay.

Man your lucky Ive had my eye on one for awhile but havent gotten around to saving up for one which is pretty stupid cause the thing will pay for itself.

And yes, it is that tight. I could make some teenage references, but I'll leave that to your imagination. It's tight. We'll leave it at that. <hr></blockquote>

When the game zooms out, the graphics get a bit garbled. It's not too bad, but noticeable. It may be my contacts, but I am not too sure.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll keep an eye out for it.

That happens on the game anyway if I remember correctly - depending on the details you are talking about. For instance, the netting on Hanzo's arms gets garbled as well as some details in the foreground of levels (smoke/steam rising).

Never noticed on my cab, but my monitor wasn't the best. KOF works like a charm though, and I play more SS3 as it is, and I have that on home cart :)

I was thinking of maybe getting a phantom 1 ,

Is the hard part getting the phantom 1 in the console ? Or changeing games ? Is it best to just leave the phantom 1 in the console and never take it out ?

The difficult part is changing the games. It's really tight the first times. If you have the blue (second) Phantom there would be no problems putting it in your Neo, but you'd better don't leave the Phantom always inserted in your system our your inserts may get loose. And you'll change the games much better with the Phantom out.
I own one blue adaptor and I've tried it with Neo Turf Masters. It works great!
