Finding AES & MVS Games In The UK Is Soo Hard

[krozor]

Finding any kind of neogeo games is really hard here in the UK <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">....For example I live 2hours away from central London and I knew there was a shop down oxford street that do retro games and consoles(Computer Exchange) when I got there they had 5 different AES carts and 1 MVS cart....They had:

Last Blade $422.450/£300
Metal Slug 2 $422.450/£300
Kof98 $253.485/£180
Kof99 ??
kof2000 $387.321/£275

The MVS was Mutation Nation about $25

At the time I only wanted to pick up a few smaller/cheaper titles to build my collection up....but with no such luck... Does anyone know of anywhere in the UK that sells neogeo games apart from the usual telegames/cex/ravengames?

Thanks

Hi i live in London at the moment...
If you want some neo home carts, I can buy it when I go back to hometown this july
and can sell it to you...

I know cex..and I go there sometimes..
Althogh they say it's cheap compare to others, I think the price of
most neo carts are too high...Some of them...I can buy at half price..

About other shops where sells neo in london...
Check www.retrox.co.uk
This shop is near hammersmith underground station and the price is.... sort of ok...
but i think they definately sell cheaper than shops like telegram or ravengame and about similar price to cex..

My local shop is Raven Games, but that's still expensive.

I get all my mvs carts from ebay.co.uk

Cheers

If you're mostly into fighting games, why not get them from Japan? I recommend Jyosui, email him for games available, you can be on the mailing list too

Well I've just bought a brand new , still sealed Samurai Spirits 2 from Japan for 16 quid , the postage was about 13 quid. You try and get a second hand copy for that much in this country.

Forget the shops over here , they will rob you blind. The americans (i'm told) dont bid much on the jap auctions because of teh shipping prices. But considering the savings that you will get , its worth it to us.

dj-qoo is the guy i got my SS2 off on ebay , just check around and dont worry about the customs , they only charge you , if someone is daft enough to put the real price on the customs declaration.

If you think it is difficult in London, you can't imagine how hard is in Madrid <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">
I only know two shops, and only one of them really worths it.
By the way, if you have time please reply my post "Europen retailer?". Thank you.

PD: Is there anybody from Spain out there???

I lived in London for a couple of years, during 97/98 and i remember there was a shop, not in London but not too distant, called 'Loaded Consoles', that was NeoGeo specialist: they advertised on 'Computer and Videogams'. Sorry but i don't remember anything more, they may be out of business right now. Just check it out. Hope to be helpful.

You want to be careful mentioning Lee at loaded consoles. He scammed a lot of money out of people last year.

I didn't know.
I never actually dealt with them.
I just remembered that it was a shop dealing in Neo stuff.
If you say so, it's not a good idea to contact them. <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

I thought the same about Belgium for a few years, but according to my experience you're just looking in the wrong places.
