Hi there, I have a post on the General discussion board about developing desktop avatars of all the favourite Neo Geo characters both new and old. The response seems to be very positive for which people would gladly download these characters to their desktop and pay a small premium for doing so, let's say $2.99 per download. I shall seek approval from the respected owners of the IP once the final character list has been created.

With this in mind would Neo-geo.com be interested in hosting all the toys in the Neo Store department and make the toys available for download either via Text message, credit card, paypal etc..

Please let me know your views on this matter..

Well, if Kenny Boy can find people to pay his ridiculous prices, you'll probably have the same luck.

But $2.99 to download avatars? :eek_2:

How about I make people some free avatars and you get a real job.

we're talking about desktop toys mate, not just static pictures, animated desktop characters in the form of your favourite NEO GEO character, actions menus will be available upon the click of the right mouse button..:buttrock:

So you want $3 for taking a screenshot from a rom and/or scanning a copyrighted image, cropping it down to 64x64, and selling it?

I'll beat that, I'll do the exact same thing for 50 cents.

*EDIT - I see. Show us an example of what you're talking about, with a Neo Geo character(s).

Sounds like an interesting idea. Can you make one and show us as an example? :)

Guys... come on... let's see what we are talking about first before we shoot his hand off... this may be a cool little thing. Can you make us a sample of what you mean... doesn't have to be a SNK character, just a sample of what we can expect?

edit: just saw the above... going to play with motty for a few ;)

He's actually pretty cool... I like the concept... I think some people here may like them... Who wouldn't want a Blue Mary or Mai dancing across the screen :)

It would have to be damned good for me to pay money for something like that. Even so, 3 bucks is a little much - maybe a dollar or something. Just my opinion.

neat. I suppose it would be something like the microsoft office assistants
or something similar.
I guess that would be cool, but there's alot of characters to cover imo
i'd do it though, as long as there wasn't spyware involved
