Nice one Cougar!!
I just bought my first Neo cart last week too! Guess what it was! A MINT Samurai Shodown 1, Euro/English, case and everything in fucking MINT condition, it's like new.
2 Days later I find a Euro/English Samurai Shodown II for sale via this very forum, so I bought that bitch too. Game arrived in MINT quality.
My friend GAVE me his Japanese Fatal Fury II, the cart sticker is peeling and has that 'sunburnt' look to it. It didn't come with a box or manual either but it'll fill the gap until I buy a mint Euro copy.
It gets even better...
With the situation turning out like a crack addiction, I cancel my $550 NCSX Gamecube pre-order and then spend my savings on the following...
Fatal Fury Special (Euro/English - MINT)
Art of Fighting II (Euro/English - MINT)
King of Fighters '96 (English - MINT)
King of Fighters 2000 (Japanese - New, never opened)
On Friday I order my Super Silver Neo (fully modded) plus an extra old-style controller. Hopefully it'll arrive for Tuesday latest. I can't wait one more second!! I'm going to hurt myself in anticipation!!
I already have my spending plans wrote out, in January I'll have US Metal Slug 3, US Sengoku 3 and Jap. KOF2001. Then when I come back from Amsterdam I'm saving up for 2 months and then offering $1,500 for a MINT US copy of Metal Slug 1.
It just can't get any better. Good luck with your collection Cougar!
