I'm with too_short on this one.
There has been nothing to really warrant a purchase for a Atomiswave, I heard GG:Isuka was cool but it is probly the same game.
But if Force Five is any good, then why not.
I hope that the characters keep the serious look since there debut on the Neo. I would hate to see everyone with the anime look, like they gave Yuri in KOF2003

This could still be the case man. It just means that by then ALL NEO:GEO MVS games would be being programmed via that Dev Kit BarfHappy is talking about and to my understanding using to program that Neo Vampire Killer game, done by a consortium of fans of different talents from either a particular region (same city) or from all over the world. Then "Limited" releases of MVS and/or AES carts would be produced (it can't be that hard to make, it just take some money) based on assured "Pre-Sells" by the die-hard community. *Actually in my mind this would be a good thing in the long run, if enough people took the idea seriously... which in the past it doesn't look like it. Unlike other systems like Super Fami and MEGA DRIVE, the NEO is the only system that still gets any love to begin with. If done "By the gamers, for the gamers" in the same vein as Fan Subbing only as a Professional Hobby, and I know there's got to be some very talanted programmers out here, along with artists, musicians, writers/visual concept designers (that be me) games for the NEO:GEO could be made that SNKP could never get away with.
for example I've had in my mind a FPS game that would play more or less like a much more bad ass version of DOOM, and have the clarity and bigness of Super Spy but going in actual "Faux 3-D" directions this time instead of side to side. Ammo could be re-spawn in locations no different from current games, and would be about a animatedly violent (i.e. bloody) as possible. The premise would be about You as apart of a band of American Guerrillas fighting against a near-future "Iron Boot" Federal Government that labled anyone not in step with their regime a "Criminal"... well in the game you'd be amongst the labeled to fight back and take it to the man. First Person style and with that classic 16-Bit NEO:GEO look! ---Sure it wouldn't be HALO, but on the MVS it be cool and you know it. I could imagine even seeing something like that in a cab six years up the road, and seeing the looks on peoples faces when they see the Pre-game Intro, done in a fashion similar to that of Operation Thunderbolt.
...so we very well could still be buying and even participating in the creation if not poliferation of NEO games in the future, it would just take SERIOUS ppl to do it. *My talents lie in concept design and writing, other than that most of what I've design documents for, and character desgins by a damned skilled artist of mine can go nowhere... and that's just on my end. ***As for the official END OF MVS? I sure hope we get a few more games out of SNKP cause KOF 2003 being it's swan song just doesn't sit right with me.

Look, people. I don't know why are you whinig so much. There will be some more games by SNK for MVS/AES, then there will be, for sure, some fan made games. But, if you can remmember, NEO:GEO started as the best gaming machine in the market, back in the '90s. The best graphics, large sprites, many colors, best music, and so on, and so forth. People in SNK obviously think that their games should run, look, sound and feel the best as they can. So, no wonder they opted to write following games for a better platform. I only wonder why they still want to publish games for the arcade, when two separate officials form SNKP confirmed that they would only produce games for home consoles, as stated in History of SNK article in gamespot.com
As for emulation ... I don't know why you people hate it so much?!?!? If no emulation exists, I would never see any of the KOF titles in this god forbidden countr I live in. So, in one hand, emulation is a good thing. I'm sure that more then half of people here have emulated some games, if not NEOGEO games. But, emulating new games is wrong, very wrong!!!! So, if you see someone playing KOF2k3 on his PC, kick him in the head for me, please

Much as I love the Neo-Geo, I'm thrilled. Higher res sprites and more colors on King of Fighters and Metal Slug? Hey, it's still 2d, but also a modern arcadeware could help the games get circulated more. The Sega + Sammy + SNK force that Sammy is building could actually bring arcades back. The three S's are riding high.
yah but i'm talking about 4 to 04. I guess it would technically be the eleventh installment, but they could still bill it as the ten year anniversary of the game, and if they wanted to stretch is, the 15th anniversary of the neo.
I just think its be cool if they made a special "King of Fighters: Ten Year Edition"

I kinda doubt the arcade scene will ever truly recover. Home consoles are the rage now, and even the home consoles have taken some financial hits over the past five or six years. Anyway, arcade machines will always exist, but this Neo craze thing with people owning MVS cabs and AES consoles is not a very common thing. Its kind of an exclusive club type thing. I just hope Sammy makes console ports, that is how to make the cash, by porting to the most popular consoles in the home. SNK didn't make enough ports, IMO. Maybe they would still be alive, I mean the original SNK company, before the bankruptcy, maybe they'd still be kicking if they'd have made more home versions of their stuff.

I really think that both market falls are not because people don't want to buy as many games. Everyone I know desperately wants something to motivate them into arcades. However, most local arcades have only racing games, and charge up the wazooh. There's one arcade though that features only 1983-1993 arcade games, all for a quarter each. It's really great. A similar arcade loaded with NEW games though? Haven't seen it.
Home consoles have taken a hit this year because they are overpriced. Hence, GC was the only one on the up and up this year. Also, a lot of recent home console games show little imagination. Heck, the last two months have only seen a couple releases that weren't FPS's, GTA clones, or sports titles.

Don't be funny man, roms of these games will almost certainly be dumped for the rest of time. CP3 roms are dumped, and I don't even think there is an emulator out there.

I am with Jorge on this one too. If the games that are developed by both parties is good and different, I will buy an Atomiswave. if they are all rehashes of MVS games, then forget it.
I just hope SNKP does not place themselves in a situation where game design and freshness is compromised.

Well, you don't count 94 since it was the beginning. It's the first game but you know 95 is 1st year anniversary, 96 is the 2nd year and etc.SamuraiShodownSensei said:

95 percent chance no new home console unless SNK rises from the ashes again in some form or another.(highly doubtful)

Agreed.
What pisses me off is alot of these old fans just jumping on the Sammy train with blind support.
See what develops from this. I'm so worried about the KOF engine.
I am one of the biggest GGX/XX haters ever, so people no my position already.

I don't care about seeing KoF and Metal Slug continue on to new hardware. Seriously, why is that all some of you people talk about? 10 KoF, and 6 MS games isn't enough? I'm not saying that to be a jerk, but geez I can't believe you guys don't want something else.
Let's see something new all together, especially if its not going to be on MVS. A fresh start, lets see if SNKP has what it takes to create something fresh. My guess is a resounding NO. All these games released of late are unfinished projects from the old SNK, even though I give Playmore props for upholding the reputation of Metal Slug with MS5, lots of that work isn't theirs, games like SvC, MS5, SS5 were all on the rumor mill before the old SNK went belly up.
They'll probably take the safe route though and create more and more KoF games, afraid to innovate and create something different.
