Rusty Shackelford:
I played this in Newquay (UK) a few months ago. It was ok, but not much different from anything else.

What I did spend some time on ( and some 50p's ) was a shooter called Big Buck Hunter. A go seemed to last forever, or maybe it was easy whatever I found it good fun. Im sure ive got a pic ill post later.....

I do so with my face in my palm.

Yeah, and lets look at the Neo Geo games that were out in 1990.

Those are hardly cutting edge.  Neo geo games always trailed the best arcade games of their time... by years.  Final Fight came out in 89.  Neo Geo had Burning Fight in 1991.  In 91 SF2 came out and soon after that the Neo Geo ripped it off with Fatal Fury, but Fatal Fury had all of 3 selectable characters and wasn't anywhere near the class of SF2. Really great Neo Geo games didn't come until LONG after 1990 and by that point, the Neo Geo hardware was as behind the times as the Nintendo Vs stuff.  In the early 90s, Neo Geo games were the poor man's arcade games.  

What exactly are you trying to argue here?  That the Neo Geo was the first hardware used in both home games and arcade games?  Your wrong.  In 87, I played one of the greatest games ever made in a bowling alley near my house.  That game was called Super Mario Brothers.  That christmas, i was playing a near identical version of it at home.  Are you saying that Neo Geo was the first home console to offer a contemporary arcade game experience at home?  Your wrong.  Every step of the way, Neo geo games were ages behind the cutting edge arcade games of its time.

The100 some arcade games based on Playstation 1 hardware say "hi".  The home/arcade model that Sega used with Naomi was predated by the Playstation.  There's even an emulator to run these games.  It's called Zinc.  You should check it out.  http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/arcade/zinc.html.  You might remember such hits as the Tekken series, Soul Edge, Strider 2, Dead or Alive, etc...

Here's where you are just batty.  Graphics and audio are the only objective points of comparison???  How about extra (and better) stages, bosses, bonus rounds and play mechanics.  In fact, an updated version of the arcade game was just released on Xbox live and it's getting trounced because it's "missing" so much stuff.  The people saying this are remembering the SNES port which was packed to the gills with enhancements that the arcade didn't have.

I'm sorry for taking exception so passionatley to what your saying, but you act like you couldn't have an arcade experience at home until the Neo Geo, and that's just not true.  Early Neo Geo games were knock offs.  Later Neo Geo games were behind the times in terms of technology.  And Sega didn't invent the wheel with NAOMI.

And you're both wrong.  All those games were designed for LCDs not CRT monitors.  Nothing else matters.   :P
