I always thought a Mega Man game would be perfect for the Neo, maybe we could get Kenji Inafune to make a kickstarter to develope a Mighty No. 9 for the Neo and Dreamcast. One can only dream.

if they didnt get sued for making Turrican for Neo Geo, I dont see why they would get sued for making Castlevania.

hey guys how come super mario brothers was never released for the neo geo?
It was released in Japan only, my uncle's friend who works at Nintendo of Japan told me that and Mario has a sword power-up in this one. True story

Gun-Lord was not a port of Turrican, OP was asking about a port of Rondo of Blood, big difference.

Long games such as castlevania wouldn't fit very well on arcade platforms. It's probably a good thing the Neo is no longer a dedicated arcade platform and the possibility exists to diversify outside of close minded parameters now.

Fixed...

Also you can't forget that Haunted Castle was originally an arcade title and that's where CV had its roots.

*stares wistfully at the $600 PCBs that pop up on ebay from time to time*

This thread is pathetic. Don't you know your Neo history, guys?

Obviously not.

Ah well.

he'd probably do it, the dude is awesome from what I've heard, fans have been asking if he'll do a Mega Man Legends style Mighty no. 9 game after the side scroller comes out and his response has basically been "sure why not?"

With enough persuasion, it's not tpp far fetched that NCI and Le Cortex could cook something up with this. XD

Why was there never a disc based add-on for the Neo? I love Space Ace and Dragon's Lair so bring them to the Neo. For the OG Castlevania as with the disc add-on we could have Symphony of the Night instead. Mario Kart only has 4 buttons as well...

I don't want the console here, I'm talking full on plug in to the AES like the Sega CD and Super-CD Rom. Give us a 32x type thing as well so we could still be getting new carts to this day.

No....no...please no. I remember adding the Sega CD to my Genesis...then the 32X. The damn Genesis looked like it was on life support.
