Ninja Master's is the better game but it costs a lot more than Rage of the Dragons. You can probably get a mint English Rage of the Dragons for a little under $400. Ninja Master's is another story. A Japanese Ninja Master's could cost between $600 - $700 for a mint copy. An English copy of Ninja Master's will be over $1,000 and could be closer to $1,500. So you have to have deep pockets to get Ninja Master's. I hope that helps you out some.

I bought ROTD new upon release and didnt think that much of it to be honest, certainly not a bad game, but there are loads more fighters out there for the aes that are better. Ninja masters is a cool game, I personally prefer that, but it is more expensive and harder to find

use that 500 bones to get yourself a MVS setup
I wouldn't drop that much on 'ROTD Dragons' whatever that game is. its only rare because.. (stops)
ninja masters, well, thats a nice collectable and an overall better game, but more expensive.
solution, buy an MVS setup and both games for under 500
unless you want to be a collector not gamer. you sound like a gamer though.

Ninja Masters is the better game. I like the animation and the ability to pull out or put away my weapon, whenever I choose. Also, NM has the best into in any neo-geo game, in my opinion.

Really, it depends on what you look for in a fighter...
ROTD is a not-as-serious fighter with VERY good graphics and lots of color. The system is decent, if not simple. Simple doesn't necessarily mean easy, though. It's also very "off-pace" which means if you've spent your life working on your timing in fighting games, it'll take you a little while to get used to ROTD's timing. I still don't have it down and get my ass handed to me *Still* in ROTD.
NM is a more serious fighter with a different but no deeper or more involved fighting system. The graphics are not as colorful as ROTD and they're more mid-90's fusion, but that doesn't mean they suck. NM is all about mood and atmosphere. It's also love-or-hate. There's little middle ground.
They both have a dial-a-combo system with ROTD having the element of Tag Team and Duplex moves while NM has Armed and hand-to-hand fighting. It's a push for me when it comes to these games in this respect with ROTD getting the nod on some days when I want a fighter to be fast-paced and over-the-top and NM getting the nod on rainy days when I want to learn some new strategy or really get into the game for a few hours and push myself to be a better player.
It's up to you, I hope that helps.
