Best Retro Console?

Yeah let's play those all time classic neogeo titles like.... ummm.... and don't forget..... uhhh.... Oh but there's King of Fighters and Metal Slug so I guess two franchises make it the best??

The SNES is the best retro console, the quantity and more importantly the quality of games is just unmatched.
The NeoGeo was no where near the best retro console; but it ranks up there with CPS2 as one of the best arcade platforms.
Avoiding the KOF and the Slugs, there are a TON of fantastic games (and serieseseseses) on neogeo. If you can only think of Metal Slug and KOF than that's your problem.
Just off the top of my head:
Aero Fighters/Sonic Wings
Baseball Stars
Samurai Shodown series
Sengoku series
Shock Troopers series
Last Blade series
Blazing Star (Pulstar is just too unforgivably difficult)
Zed Blade
and MOTHER TWERKING WINDJAMMERS! Seriously, the dog & Frisbee mini-game needs to be its own standalone game.
I'll admit I like the Stakes Winners games, but I know that's not the norm, feel free to judge.
Now I'm not gonna lie, the NES port of baseball stars was a blast and a game a sunk a lot of time into it as a kid, but which game looks better to you?

I liked American Horseshoes on neo geo.

And Neo Turf Masters is the best golf game ever made!
Blazing Star and Pulstar was made by the same dev team, but I would give Pulstar more props because it can be attached as a spiritual successor to the R-type series. It was made by ex-Irem developers as well. Don't let hard games dissuade you, R-type is regarded as one of the top shoot-em-ups of all time, and it's tough as nails.

Pulstar is "too unforgivably difficult" to suggest for people to play who aren't into shmups; and if they are into shmups they already know about it.
Pebble Beach Golf Links on the Sega Saturn is the greatest golf game ever.
