Like waiting for a C64 C2N to load... and load... and load...

... to be finally rewarded with a ?LOAD ERROR. :lolz:

Maybe we should go outside and race bikes like we used to while waiting for KB to ship, too.

Updated title etc

Seems like a final round of AES Karut Buster will be released again. Facebook reports KB isn't even done yet lol, I'm guessing this last round of pre-order is in support of it.

Pulled the trigger and bought a JP copy.

To help lessen the cost of getting the game, I've signed up for credit card with rewards (Chase IHG Rewards), I'll get $50 back in statement and it'll be half way toward the $1000 spending threshold to get 60K hotel points.

Rot ban please

Why? It has always been like this. If I'd like the game I would add it ro my my collection. I tried last hope, tried xyx but they're not my games. Doesn' t mean I cant make money off it. I got burned like this too.
Ms3, Garou, you name it. Sold them when i was done playing and when I was rebuilding my collection prices were 4x retail- neo geo games are unfortunately very scalper-friendly.

Well at least you’re honest. I’ll be honest too: You’re a cunt. Fuck off.

It's the way of the Neo world. Sorry that I merely state what so many here are going to do.Try securing a copy nowadays of gsmes you missed out on for whatever reason - you'll get screwed.

Now, OT; did everybody who ordered KB pay the full amount in advance??

Feels like they're re-releasing fast striker for some extra cash to finish up KB. Missed out on KB, but will be ordering if the opportunity pops up.

You don't need to do this to give yourself cover. No, so many here are not going to buy this game to flip day one.

Yeah guess you're right but there are a lot of people/retro shops that just pounce on this opportunity.

I am definitely going to try and snag KB when they open up preorders again. I know the delays are frustrating, but the game looks rad.

Still kicking myself on a daily basis for not scooping the Gunlord Razo and Mjmjr were selling recently. Damnit.

i'll likely get this one too. Missed the boat when this first came out. Hopefully they will do a reprint of Neo XYX as well.

KB does look really good, hope it will live up to expectations. It's been almost 3 years since I ordered.

Is that for real or a joke? If true, insane!

You betcha, I just looked at orders in my account -

KB MVS Limited Edition - March 21st, 2015
KB AES Regular Edition - October 16th, 2015

I can understand why this game is taking so long - background animations. The past titles have primarily grayish palettes (Fast Striker, Razion). Neo XYX has more colors but with 1 layer, KB looks significantly better. Hopefully they're getting better at this and future games won't take as long.
