just use whatever you prefer.
...so I´ll throw some gasoline on the fire.nruva said:No no no no no! Now come on... this is something funny... the new site calls home games AES. There was always an argument here on what they should be called... Now, maybe it is due to the term being used here, or, from feed back from SNKP, but the games are called AES. That is something my friend, tired or not, it is something.

AES/AES Cartridge
Term first coined by Dion Dakis of NeoGeoFreak/NGF-USA in early 1999 to represent cartridges that were meant for consumer use (home cartridges). Stands for Advanced Entertainment System. The term originally described the system itself: the English language logo for the NeoGeo had “Advanced Entertainment System” stamped between the Neo and Geo -fulfilling the Japanese love for adding superlatives to their product descriptions. The term originally was not well approved by some people in the beginning because people were used to calling them "home cart." But as Dion kept pointing out, anything in the home could be called a home cart: (i.e. "MVS carts are home carts if they are in your home."). The term "AES" has now become a popular short hand for describing a home/consumer cartridge and is now 100% accepted, used, and understood by all. (i.e. “I traded my Neo CD system for his Metal Slug 3 AES.”). AES carts are not compatible with the arcade (MVS) system (except by conversion).

Also, Neo Store is listed as "Exclusive Distributor for SNK NEOGEO® AES Products." Kinda cool.
Nice you get some sanctioned recognition, Shawn.

My bank account is going to be empty after purchasing a Gameboy Advance, a Metal Slug Advance AND an E-card reader.
By the way, are the E-card readers compatible with SP?
