My Fatal Fury Special cart has a lot of "Neo Stank" on it. And it's pretty surprising, cause my KOF97 sits next to it, and it's been sitting there for probably 17 months, and now the back of the kof97 cart has neo-stank on it too.

Anyone else's carts have neo-stank on them?

personally, i like the smell of neo-stank. i also like the smell of my basement. i don't know why.

And for the record, yes, i sniff my carts when i get them. :p

mmm... Neo-Stank...

I think we should add that shit to the Neo-Geo Glossary.

Neo-Stank - (n.) the distinct "stank" that graces some neo geo carts, usually older ones with vinyl cases.

Is Neo Stank really a problem and why would you sniff your carts? Also does Neo Stank kill brain cells? These questions need to be answered!

I was just thinking about this the other day!

My SS1 and SS2 smell so strongly it's not funny.

Where the hell is that smell coming from? The vinyl case? The tray? The cart? Up until now, I always thought it was the cart. It's impossible to tell where the smell is coming from because, whichever part smells has contaminated every other part. Even the manual reeks!

MY SS2 and FFS have it big time. I can't get enough of it. I wish all my carts reaked with that fine aroma. I think it's actually the smell of solder.

NeoGML - of all of my carts, fatal fury special is the one that has the stongest smell. I have both US & JPN versions, and only the US has that smell.. Whats up with that?

I kinda like the neo-stank, but damn I think I'm allergic to it. achoo!

that's too bad.

Neo stank is a good thing. but after smelling it for a while, the smell sorta wears off. then you gotta wait a few hours and then smell it again.

then that shit be muddafuckin' PHRESH yo. :D

i used to be a n00b and think it was neo-stank, but neogeo was the only thing i ever got from japan.

then i got my pcfx, smelled just like it.
i just got my pcengine, it smells JUST like it.

all the news paper and other packing materials smell JUST LIKE IT.

its jap-stank my friend, jap-stank.

i wanna go to japan and see if it smells like that. :D

(oh btw, im not trying to be offensive by saying 'jap' in any way shape or form. so feel free to flame me anyway because i know you will)
