The best game of all i think that is : killing blade…Trust me and you aren't disappointed😁😁😁 Watch i play on smartphone android https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6ajeMe9Uh_4
I use to play kof 98 97 AND 2002. they still play KOF in mexico and latin amareica
Idk if you can help me out but I once played metal slug 3 with cheat codes where my ammo were infinite idk if that type of codes still work but I've been looking for yrs with no luck!
Oh gawds my eyes they burn , they burn, they burn it's like staring into the sun , it's to awesome for words
Neo geo emulator for android is a must have app
The introduction to your video I thought was a little odd and hilarious at the same time
You got good picks bro👍
I also love Neo Drift Out and Crossed Swords. Great games as well. Garou is tops tho for sure. BUSTA WOLF!!!!
Should have all the 1v1 fighters grouped together so I can skip em all at once
as a guy who has played most of these games extensively, there are two things that i have to disagree with, 1: KoF 98' is the best game in the KoF series although 02' is a very close second. 2: King of the monsters should at least be top 20, from pure entertainment value that game is off the roof. Other than those two things, id say you got it spot on. Well done!
What is this the complete NeoGeo list LMFAO!!!
You can pull it out whenever you want and smack people in the face with it. Will done sir.
Top Hunter- for me the best retro game ever!
Ahhh! Just remembered a KOF 2000 match (grudge match I guess?), my opponent is elbowing me because it's part of the game.
where's the Double dragon?
I KNEW GAROU WAS NUMBER ONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME GAAAAAME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video! Can't argue with Garou, game is incredible!
that was the longest "FEW" mentions lol
I would like to see a top50 for the Virtual Boy
HI!maybe you can help me to find out the name of my favourite game!I used to play this in the lates 90s …but i remember only that the character may be cowboys and you could transform yourself in diffrently thing like a mechanical wolf(or dog)!(a game type like sunset riders)thanks!
I downIoaded Neo Geo Rage on my computer. Where it's basicaIIy a Neo Geo emuIator with over 200 SNK games on it. I've pIayed so many of these games you mentioned and they're aII awesome. If the Neo Geo wasn't so expensive in the states, there's no reason why the NEo Geo couIdn't have competed with consoIes out at the time. Ahead of its time as far as I'm concerned, awesome video by the way homie.
I came to this video because I downloaded a theme on the PlayStation 4 which is the Neo Geo 1st anniversary theme… There is a character that is on the theme and I don't know where this character is from… That's why I'm here because not only am I interested in learning about Neo Geo but also to find out who this character is… The character wears a black hat, and coat and has a white clownish face with red smile and a spotted scarf… Does anyone know who this is???
Thanks 🙂
Nice list! I am a bit surprise however that you did not mention Mutation Nation, even on the honorable mention.
Hay un juego donde hay 4 personajes puedes usar armas variadas como Bazzokas espadas y latigos mientras en la travesia liberas animales tales como aguilas, elefantes entre otros
si alguien lo sabe me lo puede decir
definitely bring back my childhood. Good job on making this video. Subscribed!
Awesome list, loved it 🙂
your Top50 list is complete garbage. too many Fighting games, crappy soccer games and too many Metal Slug. Your "honorable mentions" games list could replace most of your Top50 list.
Absolutely enjoyed the review, was a pleasure listening to you talk about why you enjoyed each game, what made each game stand out. With that being said, I know the time we're talking about was a Fighter Game orgasm, but christ all mighty. A top 50 Neo Geo Game list and 45 of the games are fighter games. I did enjoy the review though, keep up the good work mate!
—Edit– Just finished the video. When we got to the honorable mentions portion of the review, I knew, 10000% that number one on your list was going to be a fighting game. Figured since you put this much effort into your list, I'd at least take a look at Fatal Fury 4. You did say 'My personal top 50 games'. Nice list, can't argue with your positioning of the games. Previous comment stands, keep up the good work!
jug. you are the man.
Neo Turf Masters BEST GOLF GAME EVER
Well I'll be starting my Neo Geo emulation this week then! Jug, as you listed a great number of Fatal Fury / King of Fighters games, would you recommend I play them all, or can I skip straight to the later games?
Here we have 35 minutes of fighters and shmups.
Do a PS2 list, it would be fantastic, but also very challenging.
how can I play all these awesome games?
this was a pretty good list but where were all the fighting games?
Good list. Here are my favourites (1 per series)
1) Garou: Mark of the Wolves 2) King of Fighters 98 3) Samurai Shodown V Special 4) Metal Slug 3 5) Puzzle Bobble 6) Neo Bomberman 7) Twinkle Star Sprites 8) King of the Monsters 2: The Next Thing 9) Magical Drop 3 10) Power Instinct Matrimelee
Nice list man. I think AOF2 & KOF '95 AI's are too damn cheap to be fun. In my opinion Real Bout Special should be about 25 places higher! The fluidity of gameplay is nailed and they kept the excellent FF3 music and roster. AOF1 feels like a Van Damme movie and should make the top 20, as should 2020 super baseball for encapsulating the Neo Geo futuristic arcade aesthetic perfectly. KOF '94 and the first Fatal Fury should be in there for solid, tactical one-on-one gameplay and excellent presentation & music too. King of the Monsters 1, Savage Reign, World Heroes 1 & Perfect are a good time as is Sengoku 1…
Excellent list as always Juganawt and when you mentionned that The Last Blade would make a convincing case to show video games as a valid form of art, you just read my mind.
The neo geo is what I consider the best "Video games are art" console. The sprite work has yet to be matched by modern developpers, it is simply breathtaking.
Top 50 king of fighters games!
very good video, seen a lot of interesting titles in this list, did you use MAME to play them?
What is that thing at the start? the dude on the road, i'd like a full video of it
Street Hoop, Turf Masters and Fatal Fury Real Bout are my favorites.
The Neo Geo was definitely an underdog of the 16-32 bit era. Not only did it give birth to my personal favorite puzzle game franchise (Bust-A-Move/Puzzle Bobble), but it also was the go-to system for games that would ultimately destroy friendships one KoF match at a time. Oh, and Metal Slug was and still is the shit when it comes to run-and-gunners.
My brother has left his 4 slot MVS at my house for nearly a decade, along with 30+ games… yeah, it has been a pretty sweet time! Great list as always.
I think you will find that awesomer is in the dictionary and it refers to Pulstar haha glad to see that game in this list all though i think its actually better that blazing star but thats just my opinion im defo gonna check that Zed Blade out now 🙂
nice vid, i love the neo geo color but havent gotten into it's stationary family yet. this seems like a good place to start
