Old Jul 31st, 2008, 04:29 PM        Recommend some Neo Geo games to me.
I'm looking for some game recommendations for the Neo Geo system. Doesn't matter if they were AES (home console) or MVS (arcade only) games. Just no CD system games.

Thanks!

Garou and Samurai Showdown are definitely on my list. Not sure about Metal Slug since I already have the Wii collection, but I still might pick it up.

As for Magical Drop, I've never played it... how does it compare to Bust-A-Move. I love Bust-A-Move Bash on the Wii?

So what is this one like? It looks like a beach volleyball game of some sort?

Has anybody played Viewpoint? I was looking at it earlier and it looks like a pretty cool shooter in the same vein of Zaxxon.

Any other suggestions?

Windjammers is kind of like air hockey where you can bounce it off the sides and try and get it into the other goal, or you can pop it up into the air. If it lands on the other persons side from popping it you get a point. The other person however can go beneath it, charge up, catch it and then do a power move.

Magical drop is nothing like bust-a-move, but it's also nothing like any other competitive puzzle game, either, so I can't really explain it to you :<

Basically it's a super-competitive puzzler that looks amazing when you watch people play it in tournaments. It's especially unique in that combos count all clears within a certain timeperiod (like 1 sec), so if you get REALLY FAST you can make your own combos.

Thank you! I saw that big hilarious blobby black ball character (Fernandez) before and never new what game it was from. Waku Waku 7 will definitely be on my list now.


Shock Troopers looks really good too, kind of like a Commando / Ikari Warriors style of game, which I'm almost always a fan of. Thanks for the suggestions.

Interesting, I'll have to look up a video of it to see it in action to get a better understanding of it I guess. Sounds pretty cool though.

Neither of these people are very good.

Anyway, you win either by filling up your opponent's side or by clearing 200 gems first. You can add more rows whenever you want to give yourself more gems to combo, at the risk of overflowing yourself.

Characters are based on tarot cards and they influence how gems come down on your side and how they're dropped on the other side when you clear blocks. Tons of characters.

Trivia!

Magical Drop is also the game from which that porn advertisement chick on rom sites came from.

You know the one I mean.

They had so many badass fighting games for that system I wouldn't know where to start. I'd pursue Samurai Shodown, King of Fighers, Last Blade and Fatal Fury games. There are entirely too many to list, but they're all fun. If you can score Garou: Mark of the Wolves for cheap I recommend it highly. Badass game. Waku Waku 7, too.

Some of my more favorite side scrollers were Metal Slug series, Ninja Combat (it's dumb but it brings back memories for me), the Sengoku series, and this one title called The Super Spy. It's like a FPS, but it's side scrolling. Very bizarre game. You basically kick and stab terrorists. I probably spent $200 in quarters on that game as a kid. It's so shitty but I loved it. If you can get it cheap go for it, otherwise you'd probably get bored. It's more of a nostalgia game for me. It's very repetitive and has a horrible ending. Ha!

If you're in to sports games there were only a couple that I remember having on my system; Super Baseball 2020 and Baseball Stars 2 (not professional). Oh, and Super Dodge ball. That game is so much fun w/ more than 1 person.

Most racing/flying games never really interested me, though Neo Drift Out and the Aero Fighters series held my attention briefly. Games like Bust-A-Move and Magical Drop are always classics. I spent a lot of time playing the Irritating Maze on my arcade, too.

Rockin, thanks for all the suggestions guys. The system came yesterday, now I'm just waiting on the MVS converter and the actual games I just bought.
