With all the buzz and now price drop to $100 for the Neo Geo x gold system ive been thinking more and more about starting to collect Neo Geo. Ideally id like to grab an older aes system which isnt a problem, its the games. They are so much money for a game. It makes the X system look like a bargain but im worried about its future game releases. I have a feeling this round will be its last so no more games.
If i did start a Neo Geo collection which is the best way to go? Im thinking pick up and old system and the few reasonable games i can find and emulate the rest on my wii or get the X system and hope for more games. Clearly the X system is by far the most economical way to go, Im just not sure how strong its game catalog will be.
While we are on the topic which is the better old system to get? An import or an american one? I fly to england and japan on an almost weekly basis and they are much, much cheaper over there but im worried about the compatability across the systems. Are the systems basically the same no matter were i buy it or are they a regional thing like all modern systems? Can i use an american power cable on a foreign system so i can avoid using plug adaptors if i buy one from say england?
