Yo guys. I've came to and from this site a lot in the past but I never really joined the forums until I got my Neo a couple weeks ago. So now I have a Neo and ROTD. (plus loads and loads of NGP and NGPC stuff but I've had that since launch)

Here's my question though. I see a LOT of collectors here. What's your goal?

My personal goal is to get near mint as possible US versions of the entire KOF, FF and AOF series. I'm sure some of you are out to own EVERY neo title, but personally those are the series that mean the most to me.

So let's hear it.

To own all of favorites. Some people have done this a Looooong time ago, but with a low income and a constrained budget, a Neo game comes few and far between.

my goal is to own all the classic games not only for the NEO but also for all the systems

what getting on my way is the very over priced games (metal slug 1) due to their limited numbers

I want all the fighting series, the great shooters, all slugs until 3, some of the good sport games and some misc classics.

I'm quite far on the way, so I'm taking it a bit easy now with buying. It's getting summer and there's more things to spend cash on :)

My goal used to be having all the KOF's/AOF's/FF's....

But I have changed my goal. Now it is simply to enjoy what I have. I don't mind that I don't have KOF2K2 or AOF3.... Maybe someday I will pick them up but right now, just playing and having fun with what I got is enough.

My goal is to have all the Neo Geo fighting games and shooters as well. I am pretty far along. I already have all the AOF and FF series. I just need five more KOF games and I am complete. It is also to own all the systems I used to play as a child. That is my biggest challange.

That's my goal too. I wasn't satisfied with all the carts I had before because I just can't give a damn about just "owning" something. It has to have utility.

Agreed with all missions but 4 (for the moment) and I would also add to own the hard US Games or even all them if possible. Ah!! and to own a Neo cabinet.

Goals to attain:
1.) Mod my AES to deth. This includes Stereo upgrade, debug BIOS, S-Video if I need it, and think of a creative way of adding a power-on light to the Neo. I have ideas but its hard to arrive at just one final idea. BTW, any of you ever wonder why SNK never added a power on light on the Neo? It needs it badly.
2.) Find a US Release of Sengoku 2 to complete the series. I have a jap version but prefer US.
3.) Someday have the ballz to buy original copies of Pulstar and Blazing Star.
4.) Finish Viewpoint on normal difficulty.(i've finished it on Easy but LVL4 boss, sequence 4 is insane)
5.) I'm not interested in owning every game to a genre if some sucked. Shooters are my fav but I've owned Alpha Mission 2 and Andro Dunos, and they just bite. I can't stand having these bad apples in my proverbial barrel.

To play every different Neo Geo title even if it's the same game made different on another format.(Not TEh RoMZZ though). :)

Starting/started with MVS ,,(Getting there day by day,fast)

AES ..Timely/expensive..But growing day by day.

NGPC I love this handheld,I play it every day..I have to get all the games for it..

I have not got into the CD/CDZ side of things yet but I will.


Main goal,.... own,play,beat every MVS cart first.
I do play the games I collect.

My Neo-Geo goal (I won't deal with other systems) is to own MVS copies of all of the games that I consider worth owning, all with Shock Boxes and inserts.

Currently this consists of 60 titles (well, 61 with Matrimelee wink ). I only have 30 so far, but my collection is growing fast.

I started with a home system back in '93, but I sold it by early '95 with around 16 carts. I then bought a NeoCD unit in '99 and built up a collection of 40 games, but I became frustrated with the load times plus the lack of certain older and upcoming titles being available in CD format. I kept my NeoCD collection but ended up deciding to 'start over' with MVS.

To own all the MVS carts of my fave series like Fatal Fury (only one more to go :) ), KOF, Metal Slug etc. The games I get don't need to be kits and I am happy with loose carts - but it is always nice to find a kit in really good condition and with low serial numbers... I have a couple of good ones so far :)

One day I'll build a really nice case for my MVS board too... something along the lines of the "consolized" MVS boards that have been shown in the tech forum. Also I want to have all my games in shock boxes... they look much nicer on the shelf that way :)

Edit: That's a cool sig Bishamon! :D

US or Euro carts just look like fake shit to me. No interest in those.

As for the cab, that's another story. But I should get bigger houst priot to that. Than, a cute NeoCandy will eventually pop-up in my living room to be enjoyed in intense playing sessions with friends, the AES collection being safety locked away in my 'keep off' study room! wink

My goal is to:

1. Find Andrew Carlssin
2. Travel back to the eighties
3. Make a billion dollars out of 50¢
4. Buy out SNK, Cave, Irem, Capcom, Seibu
and others and make a multconglomerate

life. And every time I go broke just work the
market for more money. smirk

No video game goals. Except maybe to have a complete US DC collection since it appears to be cheap to do so.

My ultimate goal in life is to have a penthouse in New York with an awesome view of the city. Be financially secure. Have a job that I love and that pays me to do nothing. Perhaps owning my own clothing line or being a pimp for manwhores or something like that.
