I still wish and hope for a ever drive MVS or AES to be made.
Slight issue with that. Some games (looking at you Windjammers) have custom chips that cannot be Everdrive'd. Think of the Famicom games with kick ass audio using MM5 or VRC7. Plus, from what I understand, only the games that are currently on xxx-in-1's would be possible on a MVS flashcart...so, nothing you can't already get. Of course the hacker magicians never cease to amaze, so something might be brewed up to get around the issue of custom chips.

I didn't realize the Neo used specialized chips lol. Had to research it for shits and giggles. https://wiki.neogeodev.org/index.php?title=Category:Chips

That was news to me as well. Guess it wasn't just Nintendo using special chips to push graphics and visual past system limitations.

If I ever get my standup MVS cab, I might have to grab a multicart.  Not my preference, but pickin's have to be slim at this point.

I have been hearing about this (Neo Geo Multicart) on RetroRGB's weekly videos. It is going to be around $400. Not bad considering the cost of the library. I have been looking into getting a MVS and either consolize it or get one consolized and a 161 in 1 cart. but this Flash cart has me thinking I should get a Neo Geo before the year is out.

Heh-heh, you reminded me that I've actually been compared to Charlie Sheen - it was by an XSEED troll on the company's forums to insult me though. ;)

This is interesting. I still haven't gotten around to buying a CMVS but with this I could get an AES instead.

Honestly if you arent into fighting games than the CD route is a good one to go. The S-Video Output on my CDZ looks great, Id say better or equal to the component out on my OMEGA. If you arent playing fighting games the load times are not bad, esp. on the CDZ. And some games on CD are dirt cheap. And if you want to, putting in a region switch is a breeze. But a multi cart on a CMVS is probably the best, cheapest way to play on real hardware.
