I could have Puzzled running on MVS and everyone would love it, whereas I could have KOF 98 running on AES, and everyone would be, "MY PS2 could mop the floor with this thing!" Virtually all I ever hear here is anti-home system, and I feel as though home system owners are thought of as "second rate," and it just pisses me off. I have to tell myself that I am not a second-rate Neo gamer, because I have the "vastly inferior in every way" home system. I feel kinda bad about my AES as it is; it's just not impressive at all, and I've spent a fortune on it. Hearing more inflammitory stuff here doesn't help. At least I'm going to get a Phantom-1 for it. That should make it far more economical.
Just expressing my feelings.

No way... if anything it is the MVS people who are called second rate. I think 95% of the people here believe AES is the true sought after thing... they will say the artwork, and the price alone of carts makes it a collectible. I have always felt like MVS was referred to the poor mans Neo Geo... The bastard people here. Whatever, sorry you feel that way, in the end be happy with what you have and go on with it.
I have to agree with the cab vs system thing though when impressing friends. I am sure my friends would laugh their head off if I bought a $200 - 300 game and was playing it on my TV.... But in the cab I could have the crappiest game and people thing it is incredible (case in point, burning fight). So... You get the idea. But again, as long as you like it, tell them to fuck off
