So here is how TO resolved my problem. So Todd sends me a firmware that fucks up my cart. Todd takes a look at my cart and can't fix it so this is the response I get.
So I've been looking into the issue with your NeoSD cart and we believe the issue might be a bad connection to the FPGA or some flash chips as it only happens on the sprite layer.
But since this cart is way out of warranty (it was built in mid 2017), you would need to go back to SAG to see if they can do anything for you.
I'll ship the cart back to you in the next couple days.

So bottom line is I'm pretty much assed out a $500 flash cart. The NeoSd Pro was the last purchase I make from TO.
I've had flash carts from Krizz for much longer and never had any issues. Had a issue with DS's CPS2 Multi and Mitsu took it back and fixed the issue a year after purchase. So just so you know guys that if TO sends out a faulty firmware that fucks up one of your chips, its on you.
To me that just sounds like at best the firmware update pushed out the flaw that was there but saying the firmware killed it is not right if it was bad firmware I'm sure Tod could have just re-flashed it. The cart is from 2017 you cant expect a lifetime warranty if it has 12 months its 12 months and it's not like its a week out and I'm pretty sure you updated firmware before so it's not like the cart was like that day one.
My Toyota broke down I had to pay for the tow to the dealer pay for the repair and pay for a ride to the dealer to pick it up.

From what I'm seeing, it's most likely a 2021 release now. Fuck that, I'm moving on.Two years since the announcement and we still haven't seen a release of the MVS Pro version.
Anyone heard any more news on that?
Use the cart and determine for yourself if you enjoy it. Don't like or dislike something because others say so. Make your own opinion.So I kept seeing a lot of positive reviews of the Neo SD Pro and I ended up getting one but now I regret it after all your negative feedback. I kind of want to experience the entire library of system without breaking too much of my bank. Is there something you would recommend? No one talks about the Neo CD BC at all either...

I'm afraid the guy bought it thinking it was some kind of all-in-one console ready to be connected via HDMI to his TV... then he probably realized that he also needs a motherboard (which are still cheap last time I checked) and a supergun and a controller and realized that it was more money then he was ready to spend.
NeoSD Pro MVS carts will be up for order as soon as we get up to date with all MODE orders this summer.
how much will it cost?
Probably about the same... look at the difference between MVS and AES regular NeoSD for an idea.
I had hesitation updating the firmware on my NeoSD Pro after reading RAZO's experience. I finally bit the bullet to update the firmware last night and luckily there was no issue. The Neo Geo CD support is fantastic! Played through Final Romance 2 Mahjong without problem. Most of the CD games work fine except for ADK World.
Looking forward to the full NGCD library support. Will definitely order the NeoSD Pro MVS when it becomes available.
