For those who were truly around for the golden age of the Neo Geo in the 90's, you know who you are, $280 new home carts, pre-orders through National Console Support, waiting on 'Apollo69' to release that next rom, fresh sprite rips, NGF Flame Wars
What are your BEST memories of the Golden Age?
Mine:
1. Pre-Ordering my MOTW AES at NCSX for $350, it arriving, that new cart smell, plugging it into my AES (cart slot just replaced by !Arcade!), and seeing the beauty that was and is that game on our beloved hardware. SAME memory for Slug 3
2. Amassing a 22 cart home cart collection and eyeing it on the shelf when I got home from classes in my college apartment
3. Watching Fran getting pissed on the forum almost every day, especially the day he went ape thinking I ripped him off on SS4 JPN AES Fran rules. OASIS Forever.
4. Watching Big Bear come up with the idea for Shock Boxes and MAKING it happen, I was an official financial backer I believe for that first run.
5. Watching Tonk buy back and re-sell his collection 23 times
Bonus turkeys and coins for anyone who remembers my old school review site Garg's Neo Geo Temple
Be well all, make your skill ultimate
