Analogue NT...Here it is
Doom:
Should have included flash cart functionality. Everything else is just a small step up from snake oil.
Emulators are better anyway. Then you can get pixel-perfect graphics at any resolution you want.
kingjohn3:
why aren't they showing side by side shots yet?

I loved Samurai Showdown for it, I mean c'mon who doesn't but 650 just for the system and 200 for a controller is a little out there.
If I Wanted to get into collecting, what would be the cheapest way into it?

If you want to get into Neo Geo collecting and want the absolute cheapest way to do it (without going to emulation), the CD system is the cheapest way. However, you will soon find that the load times make certain games (especially fighters, for which the Neo Geo is famous) all but unplayable.
Other than that, fork out the cash for a CMVS. The games (which is where the real money is spent in any system) are nearly universally cheaper, often by a wide margin. Sometimes by an order of magnitude. And in the rare case where the AES version is cheaper than the MVS version (I'm looking at you, Magician Lord) it's not by much.
AES, and I have one and love mine, is a system you collect purely for bragging rights. There's a reason I only have about 5 of the cheapest games for it.
And man I'm good at going offtopic in these threads :/

False. NES emulation is definitely not perfect for some of the harder/more obscure mappers.

Wow Samurai Showdown for the MVS is 18 bux?

That seems really cheap, i knew they were cheaper but that seems like a steal.
Ebay doesn't seem to have any CMVS Systems unless I'm searching for the wrong terminology.
