AOF is a pain in the ass to get ahold of... Wish I could get that one.

As popular games go, all Neo CDs are pretty rare...

I've never looked for FF2, you could be right. Out of that list, FFS was a little difficult to find... AOF 1 has eluded me for two years.

Art of Fighting 2 is not rare at all, I've seen it a lot in the stores here. I sold mine in ebay for just 20$. Fatal Fury Special is not as common but I've seen quite a bunch of them, I still have it but I'm waiting for a friend to buy my NGCD with that game.
About the others I don't remember having seen them but also I didn't look for them.
There's a store here that still has a lot of NGCD games, but the owner is a fucktard and we hate each other. I can have a look if you want.

I have AoF, AoF2, and FFS. I don't recall any of them being difficult to find. I never tried to find FF or FF2.

AoF and FF1+2 CDs are hard to find because most ppl think they're better than the cart versions. They're cheaper, contain the same stuff and don't have unbearable load times except for a couple of secs to boot up the game, so ppl tend to keep them.

Then there are some who buy Neo CDs as sound track albums. Some of the original NGCD games are cheaper than their official OST/AST CDs, which also takes away many copies from the market. This situation gets worse if we're talking about a game which never got an official soundtrack release (for ex. the Slugs).

However, they're not rare if we're speaking about release numbers. They have been released in slightly lower quantities compared to CD releases from 1995/96, but that alone can't be the reason why they're harder to find than other games.

FFS and specially AoF2 aren't rare at all.
