Spill-over comments of the same game will not be counted.

What this means is if you want to nominate a game and see someone else has already nominated it, reply to their comment so that it counts! All upvotes in that comment thread, including the ones you get, will be counted towards the tally.

Thank you!

Hi! Picked up a really nice condition Neo CD that I plan on SD modding. However first things first, I need to be able to switch it on without blowing it up.

I have the original Japanese adapter but was hoping to pick up a UK PSU or convert one rather than use a step down converter if at all possible. Finding it hard to source one in stock though. Any advice?

I finally got my system set up with the configuration I envisioned , which was to have it side by side with my FM Towns and to make use of its nice display , I ended up getting a XNEO-1 RGB/S adaptor that was broken E-waste and with the help of sarduchi who frequents this sub managed to get it repaired , which finally let me use the MultiSync display with the system.

Other than that I also removed the ROM chip and installed a socket with the UniBios 4.0 ROM and I swapped the joystick top with a replacement ball as the old one was cracked which is a common issue , replaced the DC power socket as the old one was rusted and was dropping the voltage , and i gave the cart slots and other contacts a good spray with an off brand Deoxit.

I still do want to get a DA-15 switchbox of some sort for the RGB15 cable so i can toggle between both systems , in addition to that I have an original 2kb memory card which I'm assuming has a flat battery so ill need to open that up and install a low profile battery holder and a new battery and figure out how to close it up again.

But all that's extra I'm just happy that i finally own the system after wanting one for a decade and a half.

I fell in love with Money Idol Exchanger about 20-ish years ago. When I started working on game dev a few years ago I began wondering what a re-imagined version of it would look like, so I started working on this, HardCount.

I've changed a few things, including a level system for the coins so it doesn't end at $500, an upgrade tree and boost mechanics. I've also focused on a single player version, but want to include arcade vs. mode as well.

This seems like the perfect community to mention this game, so if your interested at all, you can play the alpha on itch:

86 Cartridges

and 37 Neo Geo CD games

I recently picked up this group of Neo Geo AES games and I’m still learning the finer points of authenticating them. Before I do anything invasive like opening the carts, I wanted to get opinions from experienced AES collectors.
From the cases, inserts, cart labels, manuals, serials, etc., does anything stand out as questionable, replaced, converted, or otherwise non-original?
Any specific things you see that I should check more closely would be appreciated.

My most expensive game I bought ever.

Hi there! Im playing an American copy of my kof 96 on my Japanese aes using a mvs to aes Convertor.

When i boot up the game, it have some weird grafical bugs on the boot up screen, but the game operates normally. Should i worry? I also have metal slug 2 on mvs, kof 97 on mvs, and samurai spritis 2 on aes, and non of them do that. I also cleaned my kof 96 cart.

My little collection to start off with
