I agree! Since your so fucking amazing at making games, please do us all a huge favor, and bring us some NEW Neo-Geo games to the table that look and sound outstanding, with you own factory made boards, some nice new AES cart shells, nice new AES SNaplock cases, CD Soundtracks, Posters, Postcards, you know, the works... and fucking do it for the good ol SNK price tag of $349.99! Because it's guys like you, that sit back and bitch non stop about them making games, that get shiti done, and bring us the REAL DEAL!
While your at it, bring us some kick ass Dreamcast copies of your titles using old shitty fucking Dreamcast Dev Kits that run like shit and are buggy as hell, because, you know, your the MAN, and you can do it better than they can! I mean, why the fuck should we support these damn NGDevTeam guys, when RAZO is going to bring us the next Metal Slug, GAROU, Pulstar, Metroid, or Castlevania to the damn Neo-Geo, and not only that, but he knows THE people that can bring it all to us for superb prices that just BLOW the competition AWAY!
Go for it RAZO, were behind you all the way, bro! When your first game comes out at an outstanding 1,560 Megs, (or higher, you know, because your the MAN), and has awesome cd quality music that is in stereo, and just kills the NGDevTeams games all around, we will buy up all your carts in a heartbeat for $349.99 each, and you will be our new savior for the Neo-Geo.... but until that time comes, we won't be holding our breath for your first fucking release, as it is years away from now, we're pretty sure.
Perhaps that is why people support them, you know, because without NGDevTeam, we pretty much have no fucking games coming in anymore, and oh yeah, because the NGDevTeam games actually push the Neo to limits that were unheard of before when SNK held the reigns. Their games are pretty damn good in all honesty, and so far I have taken notice that no matter WHO makes games on the Neo-Geo now that SNK is gone, everyone asks for a pretty hefty price tag for their work on the AES side. Why? Because work is work, and the more work you do on any project, the more your going to wind up asking for the end product, unless you like to work for free, which not many people dig doing these days.
I still think this Kraut Buster looks like a Metal Slug rip off though.

Rip off, homage - tomato, tomahto....
As oliverclaude said, of course it's very "Metal Sluggish", I don't think NG Dev denies that. And why should they? They wanted to make a contribution to the sub-genre, in this style, and enough people will buy it....some will probably even play it. And original or not, I bet it's going to be fun.
Do you work for NGDEV or just like to suck penis?

Neither actually (sorry to get your hopes up). I just enjoy playing games a lot more than bitchin' about them, and I'm glad Neo games are still being made.
. . . enough people will buy it....some will probably even play it.
Gotta keep those shelves looking pretty huh?
You've got a marketing campaign right there.
Whats wrong with $349.99? I see that being a fair price for MVS carts. Maybe $450-500 for the Aes Version.
Well, I mean, end of the day they're a business and they have a successful business model. Why would ANY business sell an item for less when it clearly and repeatedly sells at a higher rate. Money is pretty subjective - to A LOT of people, $500 just isn't that much - it just isn't. Clearly there are enough folks who feel the same as each game sells out...in a hurry. I have no idea what their costs are and what they value their hours at, but I assure you - the physical copy of Super Mario 3D World (case, art, disc) that MILLIONS of people have spent $50 on; costs less than $5 to produce - that's a 1000% mark up. People are still buying it. I don't see anyone harping on Nintendo. If NG-Dev had 1000% markup I think these carts would cost more than our homes.
#justfacts
It's true that NG-Dev may very well not be marking up their carts as much as Nintendo did with the SNES. But they also aren't spending millions on advertising, paying licensing fees to SNK Playmore, or wholesaling them to major distributors who need to make a standard profit margin either.
Love that sig mjmjr25 got your inspiration from the war room eh? Funny what irritates some lol.
It's no wonder NGDEV are moving away from the Neo Geo as a platform. I've never seen so much biatching in my life lol. The prices are high, but it's supply and demand - they sell out quick every time. Sure the games could be better, but so could any game of any other platform! I am not a fan of NGDEV, I am not a collector, I just love the Neo, and as this is a game for the Neo, and they are putting lots of love into the game, I take my hat off to them and say "Thanks for bringing us one last title for the neo geo".
