NeoRageX (or at least the scene that built around it) was one of the most cancerous & plague like things arcade emulation has seen, luckily that level of stupidity was rare with arcade emulation, we've only just started seeing it again recently with the ripped PC based stuff which because MAME isn't in a position to actually try and help with this time around is probably going to be a completely unfixable mess 20 years from now. I'm just thankful there were actually enough people with an interest to get it all sorted out properly in the end when it came to the NeoGeo stuff, it's the people who did that who really are "the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---" One of the most frustrating things about the emulation scene is that people get hyped for entirely the wrong reasons, usually over things that are problematic while the real hard work done by others goes entirely under the radar, so I'm just balancing things out here. Same applies to most of those 'mini' consoles, they're generally terrible, really bad emulations, poor features, and physically poor quality products but they're heaped with praise. If this one is anything but that I'll be amazed. |

i've hit the age where being short bothers me. Because my arms arn't long enough to hold my phone far enough away to read it clearly. I need reading glasses just to solder. As cool as this would look on my desk at work, screen is too small. considering the majority of people who would even recognize neogeo are in my age group I don't understand why they couldn't at least bump it up to a slightly bigger screen. |

Go back to perfecting those exciting cash register drivers in MAME that no one gives a ---fudgesicle--- about. |
