Fast Striker, a NEW Neo Geo vertizontal shooter from NG:Dev Team!

[mahesak]

Waiting with exciting to get my both version AES

Hope to hear new AES released soon ....

 

[SNKorSWM]

Let's hope the delivery goes smoothly without further incident.

Question why. A R E they still selling fast strike mvs on they web site when they can just about cope with the shipping of AES version to us crazy.

 

[Fox1]

I'm kind of curious why they have a re-print for Neo XYX when they haven't even shipped out the first print heh

Because MVS is something they already have stuff on hand to support the sales of.

 

[Slugger]

Looks like Fast Striker MVS is gone up in price a little to 399€. Also Gunlord MVS reprint is not for sale anymore.

 

[6tusBeckmesser]

Gunlord and Pink Bullets reprints have been gone for a few months. But the price increase on Fast Striker and Neo XYX reprints is under 24 hours old. Must be their last carts… And demand seems to be there despite all the anger on the internet. Otherwise they couldn't justify the increase.

Wow, that sucks for me . Was waiting until pay day Friday to order Neo XYX. I guess I'll wait for a cheaper reprint or for someone on the forum to re-sell one down the line.

 

[6tusBeckmesser]

Main problem with that strategy is that a 2nd reprint is either questionable (otherwise the price increase wouldn't make sense at all except for angering definitely everyone of their customers) or they will do it at that exact price point (or more).

Also don't count on second hand copies, they tend to be even above those prices. There is still the DC option for the time being.

 

[SNKorSWM]

Those aren't reprints, but are leftovers from people who cancelled their preorders.

 

[6tusBeckmesser]

Then why would they call it reprints? Granted, only 6 copies of Neo XYX available sounds strange but so far they have always been very transparent which carts were leftovers from cancelled preorders and which were indeed reprints.

 

[SNKorSWM]

How can you have a reprint when there isn't even a first print?

 

[ColdWolf35]

Don't mean to be a n00b about these games, but who created them? And from what I'm hearing, I guess that they don't make a whole lot of the games either. Just curious since I have a slowly growing Neo-Geo collection!

They don't make a lot of the neo ROM carts, but thankfully they do release their games in other, more recent, consoles.

Thanks for the info, but now debating on whether or not to get the CE!

 

[neoman]

Looks like reprint of fast strike has sold out.

Really just Dreamcast. They tried to get a Kickstarter going to put Gunlord on the 3DS + Wii U, but I don't think it went anywhere.

 

[SNKorSWM]

Fast Striker was released for the iPhone some time ago (minus the ability to shoot backwards), but the license has since expired and they never renewed it.

Man I just decided to look into this game, I'm to little too late but would have liked this for MVS.

A little late twice, sadly. They just did a reprint that sold out a little while back. The good news is that the new run of MVS will be shipping sometime early next year (with a grain of salt, NG Dev is notorious, now, for their delays, but it'll be sometime next year) and when they do you can almost bet there will be a few that pop up in the market forum. I still have a reprint on order, but already picked up a standard edition here as well because the price was right. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my reprint. I may just sell it for what I paid when I get it. We'll see. I'm sure there will be others as well.

 

[SNKorSWM]

These do pop up on ebay every now and then, but don't expect any good deals there.
