Okay, well I've been pacing my home cart purchases since the start of 2004 with only one purchase, but I recently got into PC Engine DUO so that took up my funds for the Feb. NEO purchased. For March, these are up in the air:

Metal Slug 5
Matrimelee
KOF 2k2
Metal Slug 4

and....

Dracula X: Rondo of the Blood, a game that I've been wanting since I was pup and the main reason for getting into PC Engine :p

Any advice to make my decision easier?

i'd go with dracula x. it's one of the best games ever, and it'll cost you two-thirds less than one of those AES games listed.

I definitely want to get Rondo of the Blood but I am pretty stocked up on PCE stuff. I love my Bomberman :D We'll see by the middle of the month.

KOF 2k2 has the best lineup of any KOF game (I only wish it had Heidern). I would stick with that game, just because if you get a couple friends over it's the type of game you can play for hours and not get bored.

Matrimelee is just ok, same with slug 4 and 5, but they are also worthy of purchase.

And of course, Dracula X is Dracula X, nuff said

Get Matrimelee,that game rocks.

It's a great game,with awesome music,and it's the cheapest of teh bunch,also.

Talk about more bang for your buck ;)

japanese version of the turbografx 16. an old assed (circa ~1980's / early 1990's) 8bit console that had some good 2d games for it.

Rondo of Blood!
I picked it up myself this christmas, and it's worth every Euro I spent in it. You surely won't regret that purchase.

Go for Matrimelee,if you need a Neo fix.

However,Rondo of Blood is a definite must-have if you own a Duo/SCD-ROM.
