    No, he said that I need to too. We talked about you and Lee said he haven't seen you for a while, but you're one of the soundest person going. Next time I'm Newcastle/Hartlepool I'll call in and we have a pint

          Atari Jaguar with 4 games, DMV 5 ect on the One, and a Switch with 5 games. I'm gutted with selling the Jaguar now mind

            I’m actually intrigued as to what four Jaguar games you could possibly miss that much... especially when you’ve ended up with an AES?

                I'd miss the following:

                Tempest 2000
                Alien vs Predator
                Super Burnout
                Iron Soldier.
                Brutal Sports Football

                So that's not four, it's five!

                  Looking over Tempest and Alien Vs. I really loved Power Drive Rally on the Jag, that was the best version of an overlooked and amazing game

                      I don’t see the similarity here at all. Original hardware with a bit perfect copy of the original game vs. Software emulation?

                        Tempest is one of my fave games ever but I sold my Jag too a year or so back ... just couldn't justify having it for one game.

                        Next time I'm Newcastle/Hartlepool I'll call in and we have a pint
                        You're on

                          Couldn’t disagree more. Original hardware is still being used with a Neo SD so nothing like PC emulation at all imo.

                          Also, as pointed out already on here, OG Neo•Geo AES software prices today simply aren’t justifiable. They were barely justifiable at the cheaper end of the scale BITD, tbh.

                            I guess it comes down, really, to what you're buying them for. No matter what anyone says, when you're dropping £3000 on a cart, it's more about the owning and displaying than it is about the playing. Sure, Metal Slug 3 on Switch isn't absolutely 100% perfectly like the AES version, but it is pretty similar and approximately £2994 cheaper.

                            It's kind of like collecting rare stamps or something once you get into the crazy money. No one is actually using their rare stamps. They just acquire and own and display them and that, presumably, is its own pleasure and reward.

                              You mad AES boys need to get a Neo19 4 slot!

                              About the price as an expensive AES cart - can't get more authentic than the original arcade Hardware!

                              The footprint is about the same as a stack of AES carts, a CRT and the console
