            We should mark the items with a UV pen, so we can track who has them, and where they've been in the past, it'd be fascinating.

              It wouldn't be so bad, but 50%+ of these games and the system used to be mine anyway! Like I said, if you're going to fall off the wagon, do it big time...........



              I won't be keeping all of it, so i'll add the final damage to my yearly spend after I clear the unwanted bits out.

                Good god that's alot of Neo Geo games to buy in one go. While it's a lovely haul, would you not consider buying games one at a time and playing them to death before moving to the next? I force myself to do that in order to avoid buyer's remorse and the general confusion of not knowing what to play next.

                I used to have around 60 english AES games. I got hooked on collecting but rarely played anything. I've now got less than ten and keep it there. Everyone time I buy a new one I force myself to sell one. Not mention the ludicrous amount of space they take up.

                    Like I said, I won't be keeping them all, but couldn't be arsed with the hassle of looking for all the ones here that i'd want seperately. I've owned all of them before, so know what I like and don't and will only keep the ones I rate. Ten or so will be going at least, but the deal was as a bundle so I took the lot knowing i'd make some of the price back.

                    On a side note, can anyone tell me how to get in to the geometry settings of that little Sony KV141TU crt? The picture is lovely, but is offset to the left by about 10mm.

                    Right, i'm off in to work to do a bit of overtime to relieve my spending guilt.

                        Haha ... I knew it'd be SNK related (though I thought it was going to be a cmvs).

                        I take my hat off to you mate ... you never do it by halves

                        Garou MOTW is on my list of wants, but I can't see you parting with your fave Neo title. Not for now anyway

                        Enjoy it mate, lovely collection and the perfect TV for it too (a quick scoot around the net should sort you out with the service menu code. For mine it's (in standby mode: i, 5, vol+, tv). Make a note of the defaults before you change anything.

                              Should be the same as this

                                Haha nice one Colin!

                                I was thinking either SNK or PC Engine, though I am sure the latter is a matter of time.
