Looking for an AES with a couple games or a consolized MVS.
-
You could send an email to jamma nation X for a cmvs, he custom makes them based on what options you need.

AES stuff is getting VERY expensive at the moment. You really have to search and be willing to pay a lot to get a AES systems. MVS is much simpler still. Look into a CMVS and a Multicart, that'll hold you off for a while.

Excellent! Sounds like a good time to sell my lovely old low-serial-number AES to a "collector".
Although I really should plug in Viewpoint one-last-time. :wink:

You really have to be...dumb...honestly, to get into AES at this point. Ten years ago it was a rich idiots game, now it's just idiots period. The only lure (supposedly) of the much more expensive AES is that it's so exclusive and exciting and "I always wanted one back in the day" and all that f*cktarded superficial horseshit, but with pirate carts showing up all over the place now you're essentially paying a premium for a level of exclusivity you can't even rely on. I suppose you could limit yourself to games so worthless that nobody would ever pirate them...but do you need to blow hundreds of bucks to play 3 Count Bout?
That, and with the amount of modification needed to get decent video and two good sticks with an AES is pretty silly. Even if you are one of those guys who's occasionally asking here about how to get the non-f*cked up version of Metal Slug on their POS multi-cart, you're still going to need a Neo Bitz/JROK, a UniBIOS, and some parts for sticks. You might as well invest that into a CMVS by any measure.

I got me a low serial number unit too. I'd love a copy of Viewpoint if you are that tired of it.

I got a stack of 12 NOS US AES Games for $22 each game back in 07. I slowly built my collection to a meager 35 Games and I love the system really. I got my AES for cheap BITD as well. No special Video mods needed, just a Scart Lead and RGB goodness. I did install the Multibios but it is so worth it.
If you really want pick up a CD system, yeah those loading times but you can simply burn every game from the beginning ending with KOF99 (Unplayable but hey it's free!!!!!).
Cheaper carts can be found, I found 6 on my trip and they were ALL in Brick and Mortar Video Games stores. It's a hard system to collect for as every game is collectible and worth something. Just stay away from eBay madness for sure.

jesus, you are so chad.

The Neo Geo X Gold system is an option too. You can still get one and deck it out with roms for under $200. It does have a few drawbacks but cost is certainly not one of them.
-
Please don't joke. This is adults talking here.
-
What? It's no better or worse than an everdrive.
-

You're having a laugh? Right?
Comparing Everdrive/SD carts and emulators like the NGX are like comparing a shit and a shovel. If you want to play NeoGeo roms, a NGX is probably one of the last options I would take.
On topic - If you're a member over on the Neo Geo forums that's your best bet. I landed a nice example, low serial number AES about 6 months ago. Initially started a thread for a price check on a boxed AES, some guy posted a reply with a photo of four boxed systems sat in his wardrobe so I had my pick. :)

Looking for an AES with a couple games or a consolized MVS.
Are you just getting interested in Neo or is this a replacement? I went MVS (cab) route myslef, over the years I've acquired a few carts, all loose, some boots. Sold and traded some turds.

Not a Neo Geo guy.. what is the significance of a low serial?

The lower serial numbers have better RGB output, there's a rough bracket knocking about that groups the quality of the RGB output opposed to the composite output.
It's rated something like:
0-85000 | RGB - A, Composite - C
85000 - 130000 | RGB - B, Composite - B
130000 - >190000 | RGB - C, Composite - A
Those numbers are made up but you get the general idea, higher serial number means better quality composite, worse RGB which means you'll likely need an RGB amp or pass through if using RGB with a high s/n AES.

I see, thanks. Glad it is a practical reason... and not a penis measurement...

If you don't care how it looks and want to do it as cheaply as possible get a supergun and a mvs board. Use this as your guide:
http://www.hardmvs.com/html/PCBcompare.htm
I ended up getting my mvs-1 setup with a few games for under $200 including adapters to ps2 controllers, memory card reader and cards, unibios and it works great. Still need an enclosure for the damn thing, but there you go..

Yeah they are pretty bad. I have an account from 2002 that is still active. I stop dealing with that site because of the self entitled a$$holes over there.
I'm not looking to sink a lot of money into and build a collection. At least not AES stuff. I had a system in the past and have a few games from when i had my last system and just want to play a few of them again. The consolized MVS is nice cause it opens the doors for more games down the road.

Spot on. My AES IS 15,000. If you must have an ARS, get one with a MVS converter, play cheaper arcade carts right on it.
-
I was lucky enough to get some awesome deals for aes games when i was able to picking em up. I got to 76 titles but now its getting pricy so im just focusing on mvs and neo cd. I have a few friends who would love to have a neo geo system but just dont have the cash for aes. Cmvs+multicart=a great way to get into neo geo and to try out the great games
-
To me, an MVS converter defeats the whole point of the novelty of owning an AES. Imagine a PC Engine with a Sega clamshell sized combo sticking out the front.
If you want a functional system and more and cheaper games, a CMVS is the only way to go. Even the best AES models for either RGB or composite aren't as good as a well-made CMVS and unibios is a must have.
If you've never owned an AES console, you'lly be shocked by how cheap and flimsy it feels. If you really want one to look at, your best bet is to buy a broken one for cheap and get a CMVS for actually playing games.
-
I had an MVS 6 slot and a load of games years back but sold the lot. This time around I opted for an AES, I don't regret the purchase but the MVS is the best option if it's all about having access (for reasonable sums of money) to the majority of the Neo library.
You either have to be insane or loaded to justify the purchase of most AES games. I made my peace and accepted I'll never own the likes of a MOTW or the Metal Slug games but there's enough of the common carts knocking about to keep me happy.
-
Then why even own a Neo Geo? Just to get your dick hard? If I couldn't play any game made after 1995 I probably wouldn't have bothered.
So you don't have Metal Slug 3? What's the point?
-
I still say it is a great system, a great 2 player system. The AES isn't quite as cheap and flimsy as posted earlier but it is very much an arcade board with plastic molded around it, almost an after thought. Getting an AES and some cheap games is fine just to have, SS2 alone justifies the purchase IMHO. You can get later games if you search for deals but any good games are going to be north of $100 for sure.
-

Why even own a PC Engine? I can play all the games on an emulator, right? Actually, why own any consoles made before 2005? :)
There are quite a few games made after 95 that are perfectly affordable, KOF games up to around 2000 as an example.
And MS3 is one of my least favourite of the series with MS1 and X beings personal favourites, not willing to sell body organs to fund the purchase though.

Was that suposed to apply in any way to something I said?
Sure, you can have fun with any Neo Geo, even a Neo Geo X, but if you HAD an MVS and switched to AES and you aren't a millionaire then ALL you did was reduce the number of games you can play. That's it.
-

Not really, if you own an AES you can play both formats. The price of an AES and convertor is probably comparable to a CMVS. Difference being the AES will no doubt gain value over time.
The MVS/convertor is simply a path I've not bothered going down this time around.

Has a 100% converter been invented yet? If so, are they no longer hundreds of dollars? Last time I checked, the Super V2(?) converter was over $300 alone and required an additional power supply sold separately to play some games.
Still seems like buying a PCE LT + SCD + adatpter + HuCard converter.
-
There's one called Magic Key that plays pretty much everything, even the multi carts. It's about £200 and to my knowledge it doesn't require it's own Psu and has a variant of the unibios installed.
I think there may be issues with AES systems that use the 5v PSU but I may be confusing it with the Phantom convertor.

Jesus Christ, that is a hell of an investment. I could buy a 1slot MVS and a shitty supergun from a reseller for less than than and still have enough to pay for a visit to nullilty's favorite asian massage parlor.
-
Just get a supergun. Then you can buy pcb's as well. Shit, you can probably get a Neo cab locally for less than what people want for an AES console and a few super common games now a days.
-
You can buy a decent cmvs for $300 with unibios and better video output than any unmodified AES.

I paid less than $200 (dollars, not pounds) for my CMVS. It came with the UniBIOS, a Neo CD pad, and an AES stick. I have Rage of Dragons, KOF 2003, Metal Slug 3, and many other games, none of which cost me more than $45 except Pulstar which was over a hundred.
To do that AES style I'd need thousands...PER GAME in many instances. If you can actually source one of those £200 converters you'd have...nothing...since all it does is let you play MVS carts...and an MVS can already play MVS carts natively, you still be at step 1 before you even talk about a system.
The AES is probably the most clear cut example of a more expensive alternative that is worse in every single way. If you're more interested in hype than game play, that is, if you are a poseur, then AES is great. Me, I like flying spaceships and shooting fireballs and shit.

Lol! Yeah I guess it is pricey. It all comes down to what someone is willing to spend, their technical knowledge and the functionality/setup they want.
If money is tight then a PCB supergun with an ATX PSU and MVS 1 slot will give you access to the entire MVS and JAMMA library for peanuts. I've toyed with the idea myself for one of those Pandora 50,000 in 1 carts but Ive got consoles coming out of my arse these days and probably wouldn't use it.
In the UK, the availability of many things is limited and when you do find somewhere that supplies niche items, your wallet often gets raped.

That's just emulation. A cmvs or supergun + mvs board plsying mvs carts is completely different.
-
Why does this f*ckhead equate MVS with emulation? That's the second time he's done it. We're talking about ways to play actual Neo games. Just because MVS is thousands of dollars cheaper than AES doesn't mean it's some hanky bootleg horseshit. These are real arcade boards that play real Neo Geo games. The exact same code on the exact same chips manufactured in the same factory on the same day.
The AES was created as a cheap way to play MVS, but things flip flopped when all the arcades went out of business. The only *real* work done to make the AES was a DRM scheme to lock out MVS carts and vice versa, the very same scheme those stupid converters defeat. MVS is the way most people played Samurai Showdown, Magician Lord, all that. It's as legit as anything that ever was.

The Pandora would have been for the CPS games rather than Neo Geo you tool. That's the whole reason I own a f*cking AES.
-
Why is it that an MVS is great if you 'just want to play the games', but if you want to play the same exact games via emulation you're a retard piece of shit? You can't have fun if it's not legit, bruh!
-
MVS is for impoverished scumbags who need to play Neo games so bad that they can't maintain the stoic maturity of a collectard with an AES who rarely plays anything because he has to pay $2000 a game, and is too chicken to even authenticate the games he has because he knows several are probably boots, and too scared to play them because the carts might get scuffed.
I can still smell the tiajuanan arcade my $15 Real Bout 2 cart came from. There is no more pure Neo experience than that and if you think I'm joking please go take a flying f*ck at the moon.

Ive been playing the hell out of my CMVS since getting it last year and loving every minute of it!
Now you tell me I haven't been getting the legit Neo experience? My non art labled MVS carts are just a cheap knock off? f*ck my life!!! Its all been a sham!!!
That's it. I'm joining Nullity's gay Craigslist prostitution ring. I'll have money for an AES and a full set of games in no time! Nothing will keep me from having a true neo geo home experience! To make matters better, I'm gonna hold out for a US Themed AES too, and have it region modded, and RGB modded to match my RGB modded US Themed Genesis. I surely do NOT want to buy a separate cord!
Nully.... Call me!

That's good to know.. Let me know if you plan to ever sell any of them, might be pming you in the future if you are..
-

I don't get this, I run an unmodified AES save for Unibios and use an off the shelf SCART lead and it looks AMAZING. I've run my MVS cab back to back at the same time (SAME GAME!) and I'll be darned if I've noticed a difference.
-
The guy I bought my first batch of games from had full color cases and whatever for every game. I told him to keep them. They had a plain white lable for the first 10-20 years of their life, I don't see any reason to change that.
-
I got my AES in 96. I loved it and got some games for fairly cheap. Well cheap being around $100 for early KOF games and a few other now uncommon games. It was great then, but wtf with the prices now. It's the biggest rate hike than anything. There is no real point for a "gamer" to get an AES now. Around 2010 or early 2011 you could still get an AES for cheap as shit though, but then people got buyers remorse when they saw most of the "wanted" game prices. Now an AES JP with no box and 1 controller and common games like Art of Fighting 2 or FF Special is $400 easy. Well for the bay. It's not that much cheaper anymore even on the neo forums. So I sold my AES shit and went MVS. Best thing I ever did. I do regret not having Magician Lord anymore though. Now people getting an AES with an MVS converter is just silly to me. Are there any converters now that don't have that scaling issue with games like Art of Fighting or Waku Waku 7?
BTWI love my beat to shit carts. Haha some I have labeled with masking tape and a sharpie. The boards inside look mint though. Kinda funny. I like my carts looking played.
-
Yeah, stickers just make you look like you wish you had an AES. Leave it for the punters.
FWIW, I'm pretty sure the new converters work with everything. The old ones straight up sucked though.

I have an old school Arcade converter and it works with all my MVS Games save for my multi cart, MS5, and SS5. I am certain SVC wouldn't work either but hey good enough so far.
-
I like being able to identify and find my games. Many MVS carts I bought had no label, an unreadable one or a peeling fugly repro label. Shock boxes with decent inserts makes a huge difference as well when it comes to organizing and locating games that I feel like playing. I like game carts, not what I believe to be "the AES experience". I had an AES and could have another at any time. I don't give my games labels or cases because I'm trying to recreate an AES experience. The Omega looks, feels and functions better and having a cart label that I can remove any time only ties everything together all the more. You don't have to only either play marker-labeled cdrs stored in an old CD wallet or be a full collectard. There is a genuine appreciation to be had for all aspects of video games. I've never tailored by gaming lifestyle around what other people think, otherwise my hobby would be attention-whoring.

That's it. I'm joining Nullity's gay Craigslist prostitution ring. I'll have money for an AES and a full set of games in no time! Nothing will keep me from having a true neo geo home experience! To make matters better, I'm gonna hold out for a US Themed AES too, and have it region modded, and RGB modded to match my RGB modded US Themed Genesis. I surely do NOT want to buy a separate cord!
Nully.... Call me!
I made my own cart labels.

I'm also working on a set of matching shock box inserts.
those stickers on the carts look pretty sick! lol
I think so too. Wouldn't mind having a few of those. I like how nice the kitchen looks, then there's a random final fight cab in the corner. Lol [emoji7]

2 > X
Why is that? I don't know very much. From what I've heard X was to get rid of the slowdown. Only slugs I have are 2 and 3

The neo geo is equivelant to the foo fighters. They found a "forumla" that appeals to the idiotic masses and stuck with it. And this has nothing to do with the price of anything, im talking about the execution of what is produced.
They found a way to make 90% of the video game "pine riders", people who play once in a while, say "Ohhh, Ahhh, look at those graphics" while providing zero substance at all. I compare this with the foo fighters and people who use thier music to "GET AMPED! Because they sound soooo gooooood!". Even though its hollow and reptitive.
Another way to look at it, the neo geo is the blonde plastic trophy wife for trust fund babies.

Think of X as MS2.1, it fixes the slowdown and there are quite a few additional changes outside of that.

Right, but Ope is saying 2 is better than X.

Personal preference I guess, with the slowdown out of the way 2 would have been perfect. With X they fixed that but tinkered with everything else so those changes wouldn't be to everyone's liking.

the color palette in X is wrong sure they fixed the slowdown but at what cost?

The Neo Geo has a crapload of non-street fighting games across many "genres". The library is solid without including any fighters, it's just not as massive as the regular 16-bit consoles.
-
I had an AES briefly.... realized how silly it was to have that much money in a piece of hardware for only a handful of affordable games (I had magician lord and riding hero... yay) Dumped it, later dumped all my MVS stuff (of which I had quite a bit of good stuff) and all I have left is the Neo Geo CD which I barely use and will probably dump soon. I'll just emulate the crap now. Its close enough for me to have fun and I dont have to fumble with old hardware that is only getting more and more expensive and will probably require repair eventually (This is also why I got out of arcade boards)
As such, anyone looking for a front loader Neo Geo CD? :D
-
I absolutely love the Neo Geo, since it was released over the years I've owned all the library of AES at one point or another, but in more recent years I wouldn't get involved again in buying AES, all the repros floating about make it a complete minefield to collect for.
I only now own a handful of AES games. I'm happy playing the Neo Geo rage X emulator (no relation to that awful Neo Geo X Gold thingy) with the complete rom set. That emulator looks amazing on my 40" LCD TV.

Zero Substance? Have you played a Neo Geo Game? The amount of depth and attention to detail even in a simple fighting game could take years to master. I don't think you know what you are talking about.

Further proving my point that you are obviously too emotional to have an intelligent conversation. You want to hate without merit? Fine; have at it. You appear silly and immature doing so.

I never enjoy Neo Geo games, as they usually bore me to tears. The main reason is, they never punish you for dying. They were built for arcades, which meant the punishment for dying was to spend more money. Nearly every non-fighting Neo Geo game puts you at the exact same position you died, whether you are dying once, or even starting a new credit. Thus, the feeling of punishment is lost to either a really arbitrary "Game Over" because you run out of a fixed amount of credits, or you have infinite amounts of credits, which makes the entire process feel hollow and boring.
To me, an enjoyable game punishes you for death, and sends you back to the beginning of the level, and makes you do it until you get it right. My favorite games are the ones that are punishingly difficult, that require a level of expertise and practice to get through them. Games like Mega Man or Ghouls 'n Ghosts serve as good examples. These sorts of games don't exist on the Neo Geo.
That said, if someone enjoys Neo Geo games (and plenty of my friends do), I'm not going to malign their choice of gaming. Gaming is like music. As long as you are enjoying it, who cares what other people think?

Magician Lord = Ghouls 'n Ghosts, which is also an arcade game. Not every shooter lets you start immediately where you died, in fact I can't think of any that do off the top of my head. Same with Blue's Journey and Ganryu.
Many games in other genres like beat-em-ups typically respawn you where you died. Just like with various 16-bit console arcade ports though, you don't have to opt into unlimited continues.
The arcade nature and smaller size of the library is why I prefer the other 16-bit console libraries, but it's not as shallow as many people make it out to be. It's not like it was bitd when every game purchase was a bif deal. Not that we can play everything for free, games can be enjoyed just for what they are.

I've played Blue's Journey, and you continue exactly where you die. At least in the version I played. Same with Metal Slug, Shock Troopers, Nam 197X, and pretty much every Neo Geo game I've played.
That said, Magician Lord looks like it deserves some time. Good suggestion.

You can make the games as punishing as you like, by not banging continues in like a tard. Just start from the beginning when you lose all your lives. Neo Geo games may have been designed to eat coins but pretty much every game on the system can be done on a single credit.

I wish Pulstar did, ugg, unlike Blazing Star. AES was bad about only giving you 3 credits, one reason to to get that UniBIOS.
I love my Neo, but Neo people not so much :)

Yeah, without the Unibios I would find a lot of stuff a bit more frustrating to play. I really is a godsend.
And yes (spoiler) I do suck, I don't have enough time to "git gud" at every game I want.

I'd love to see someone beat Magician Lord on US. AES Console settings. Impossible.

Who gives a shit? It's an arcade game. It consume quarters by design. You can't put Super Mario World in an arcade. That does not mean the games lack depth. Your respawn litmus test of quality is arbitrary and stupid. I can't believe people are even addressing it.
People wouldn't still be playing KOF 97 in massive online tournaments in China in 2015 if the games lacked depth. Watch a high level Magical Drop competition and tell me that's a shallow game for frat boy showoffs.
It's a consolized arcade system, either via homebrew or officially via the AES. Arcade games like Donkey Kong or Spin Jammers have a different kind of depth than Chrono Trigger or Combat, but it's depth all the same. If you can't see that you probably just suck bad at video games.
Seriously, what kind of f*ck face on a classic video game forum doesn't recognize arcade games? Preposterous.

If you try a street fighting game and only play against the computer, set it to the lowest difficulty, turn away from the screen and mash some buttons until the game is over, it may seem too easy, but you are purposly choosing not to engage the game or explore everything it has to offer. It's the RPG equivalent of watching a youtube video of the ending instead of actually playing the game.
This all reminds me of the lame EGM reviews of Strider 2, when they complained that the game was too easy, because they just ran forward while button mashing and hitting continue until it was over. They might as well have used a game genie code for invincibilty.
You're free to interact with a game however you please, but it's hypocritical to write off a game you can't <10cc because it doesn't offer any challenge.
-
Actually depending on which version of magician Lord you have you can continue directly where you die, making the game easier to pass. Two versions of the game are out there, I have the version where you spawn directly where you die.

Actually, I have the same criticism of Strider 2 (paging galam). Its ridiculous to have a system like the one built into Strider 2, where a continue sends you back one screen, and then blame the player for using it. That is a development flaw, not a player fault. You can't use "Player should have better self-control and not use continues" in your design doc. That is just shitty game design.
Also, the game genie is an external device and the continues are built in. That isn't a comparable situation.
-
Did you never go to an arcade? Do you not know how that works?
-
He sounds like the whiners that claim Sapphire is too easy after they play it on easy with max continues.
-
My experience is this.... You can't beat a neo geo, aes or MVS, for gaming on limited time. If I have 30 mins to kill I hit the CMVS. You can't beat the arcade action for that.
I've also found that it is great at parties. Put a multicart in, and people have a blast.
I love my MVS. The MVS, Genny, and TG16 get the most play in my house, and def not in that order.

Grandpa Zeta, you bring out the best in people. Are you upset because the nurse didn't give you your pudding today?
I've played my friends' AES, CMVS, and MVS 4 slot cabinet. We've had entire game nights focused around Neo Geo. I've been in an arcade. There was one in our mall, in my home town. There were arcade machines in the roller rink. I currently own an Asteroids and a Tapper. I've owned Tron and Tempest.
So, just like the rest of your pants-on-head retarded arguments, this falls flat, you "f*cking worm."
Speaking of dodging, lets keep a list of what you've dodged:
Your f*ck-up, noting that SMW "couldn't" be an arcade game, when it was.
Your f*ck-up, thinking I claimed Neo Geo games didn't have depth.

Apparently someone stuck a SNES in a cabinet and I didn't know about. Apparently there is some way to make a 100 world platformer that takes days to beat into an arcade game with minimal hacking. I stand corrected. It sounds like a pretty shitty idea, which is maybe why this exists as a obscure picture on the Internet and not something anyone actually remembers playing.
Substitute my original comment with "World of Warcraft". I'm sure there is some f*cked up cyber cafe with a standup WoW machine too, but hopefully this time my point is clear, that WoW is completely unsuitable for the arcade, that arcade games and games you have all the time in the world to play are made differently. Neo games play exactly like arcade games because that's exactly what they are. The notion that they lack "substance" is idiotic. They are flashy and loud because an arcade machine is constantly trying to win a barking war with all the other machines. Only the ones that are actually fun to play stay in service though, and since the Neo lasted for 15 years as an arcade platform I'd say SNK makes pretty compelling software.
The idea that it's a platform for elitist pricks is completely out of context. Oh yeah, the AES is for a$$holes all right, but the MVS only requires $0.25/¥100 to play and anyone can jump into the game at any time. That's as "common man" as I can imagine. Some Neo dans own all the games, some own none of them but have totally mastered many because you don't need to own anything to play them in the arcade.
-
Isn't the SNES arcade the same as the NES one, in that you are only buying a limited amount of rental time with each credit? That's not the same as an arcade game within the context of the discussion around arcade vs console game design.
And if SMW counts as a real arcade game, then all AES games are console games. But this isn't true as far as the base argument of Neo Geo games being limited by their arcade-play design. So why drag things so far off in a random direction when you understand what was originally meant?

I was talking about playing dumb about the rental cabinet SNES arcade hosting SMW, just to have something to continue arguing about. The way that thing operates only proves Zeta's point.
RPGs are my favorite, which is why for years I was in no rush to get a Neo Geo setup while it was still too expensive. Emulation never hooked me in like playing carts did, even the multi-game carts. The 16-bit generation was the most arcade focused and ports and arcade-style PCE games still get the most attention. The Neo Geo library should appeal to most 16-bit fans and it's sizeable enough that there's pretty much something for everyone outside of RPG and sim fans.
I switched from the Genesis to TG-16 as my main console early on because I wanted 16-bit console games and not such arcade-like experiences, so I get it. But trust me as someone who still has the same tastes, the Neo Geo library is much more satisfying than I expected, based on decades of arcade-play and dabbling with emulation.

Nevermind.

LOL so is the original poster going to still get an AES?
-
I had one before and still have some games. I'm passing on both for the time being.
-
I dont care "why" it implimented some of the decisions on how to compete with other arcade games. Im talking about the games themselves. Thats all.
Well, you're never going to really understand any art if you don't understand the context in which it was made. That goes for everything from Shakespere to Neo Geo. Nothing exists in a vacuum.

Just get a cmvs and a multicart. A good way to neo go without having to spend thousands

sadly, i didnt go that route. when i started collecting for aes back in 2009, i didnt even know about cmvs and multi carts. i was collecting aes all the way and picking up everything i could. then again, the prices weren't nearly as bad as they are today! that's why i took a break from aes and focused on other systems lol

I stated in 2002 back in college. Back then you could get a stack of commons for $15 each. In 2007 I got 12 NOS USA games for $22 each and free shipping. The collectard Craze has almost ruined everything. I am seriously thinking of cashing out.

Why would you sell the games that you have that you wanted, just because you don't feel like paying as much as you'd have to for some other games that you want?

Flip AES for Amiibo monies, bruh.

I see your point however I could use the cash for other things such as redoing my bathroom or maybe a bigger turbo for my car. The point being even common shitty games are $100-$200 so I think collecting is ruined for the most part. You get new guys who just stated 6MOS ago who just dump cash to be the king collectard or even try to flip for above eBay prices. There is a kid (22years old) who has signs and adds everywhere in my town, constantly hits me up for my items at 25% of their value and everything he sells is over eBay prices. Expensive games they can't sell they raffle off for slots, no idea who watches these paid auctions it's just leaving a bad taste in my mouth.
Right now I have a boxed US AES with a low serial
And 34 AES games, most US. I'm happy to have it and paid a fraction of what it's worth maybe it's time to get out and pocket the cash. Maybe just cash in on all this madness.
IDK

The only reason "collectors" "collect" is so they can sort things into lists and check things off. Half an AES collection is as worthless to them as none of it. They don't play this shit. If you can't finish it it has no purpose. It just sits around and reminds them of how they aren't rich enough.

You're not the first to get mocked for screwing up quotes and you won't be the last. Get over yourself.
