About
The only subreddit dedicated solely to the Neo Geo!
The Neo Geo is a cartridge-based arcade system from the fourth generation of video game consoles. The console was launched to arcades as the Multi Video System (MVS) in Japan on April 26th, 1990 followed by releases in North America (August 22nd, 1990), and Europe (1991). Variants of the arcade console may have 1, 2, 4, or 6 cartridge slots for games that can be chosen by the player. Many people "consolize" MVS boards to be playable on a home television by either using a JAMMA-based "supergun" or manually wiring the needed parts.
On July 1st, 1991, the console was launched in a different form factor to the home market as the Advanced Entertainment System (AES), becoming the most powerful machine of the fourth generation of consoles. A version of the AES that uses CDs instead of cartridges — the Neo Geo CD — was released in 1994. A handful of exclusive titles were released straight to Neo Geo CD.

just got mvsx in south korea, it has 2.0i firmware
Hello everyone,
MVSX officially launched a few days ago in Korea by a local company,
and I received it a few days ago.
I tried to hack it; however, it doesn't recognize update.img, and I found that it has 2.0i firmware.
Is there any way to hack this one?

My Final Baseball Stars 2 Goal: Force the CPU to use all pitchers within the 1st inning
I've just about accomplished everything I wanted to achieve in Baseball Stars 2, including:
-A perfect season
-Getting a CPU pitcher past 250 pitches
The last thing I want to pull off is to force the CPU to use all their pitchers within the 1st inning.
Given that'd I've pulled this off by the 2nd inning, this doesn't seem out of reach.

Neo Geo AES Volume slider
Found an AES but it's missing the volume slider on the front (i think it's for the headphone jack). Does anyone know where i can get a replacement part?

SHADOW GANGS ZERO: 2-player Co-op Gameplay is Officially Here. Next on the List... Six Mini-Bosses !
That's right... the £100K stretch goal was met, so 2-player co-op gameplay is now officially a core feature of Shadow Gangs Zero. You'll be able to partner up with a buddy and fight crime together in this upcoming game inspired by classics such as Shinobi and Shadow Dancer. Thanks to all campaign backers for making this happen!
Don't forget that the lead development platform is Neo Geo, so the game is being exquisitely crafted to suit the strengths of this 16-bit powerhouse. The developer is making sure that Shinobi-style ninja action is no longer just restricted to Sega platforms and their communities. When this game is released, the world will understand why Neo Geo is Bigger, Badder, Better.
Late Pledges are being accepted for a bit longer, so join the party while you still can. The next stretch goal is £120K, which unlocks six insane mini-bosses: ED Walker, Military Tank, Dragon, Military Helicopter, CannonWall, and Heavily Armed Van.

Took the plunge into the world of MVS
Always loved the Metal Slug games and after finishing up my Mega Man game collection it seemed like a fun new adventure. Should be picking up a consolized MV-1C today then on to find 3, 4 and 5.

Picked up a Neo Geo over the weekend
Hi everyone just picked up my first Neo geo console and a couple of games over the weekend! Super excited to finally own one. I plan on getting a converter to be able to play MVS games on it at some point. Any ideas which one is the best and where to buy one at?

Start in the right direction
I need to start with a collection of the Neo Geo AES system(no CD or oth variants the most original). I need to know if the best/most valuable is the us or Japenese version. And is it possible to find a console basically in mint unused condition boxed as if it is new(I have searched everywhere, found good ones but not mint unboxed) this is for a project not for myself and I have a financial backer

If I had to get a single KOF, which one would it be ?
Hey all, I'm about to get an AES for christmas (yes, how foolish of me at this day and age...) and I've been making a list of essentials I should buy myself to get started (Magic Key, Neo Turf Masters convert, Metal Slug 1 MVS, Samsho 2/3...)
As the title suggests however, with the 10 different iterations of King Of Fighters on the system, I'm having trouble making a choice on a single one (98 seems to be the best "all-rounder" in the series, but I can't help but feel like right now it's a bit overpriced, nearly 100e more than 97)
My console should be a japanese model without Unibios, and I would prefer getting an AES version for this specific game.
What would be your game suggestions ? If you could choose one with current prices in mind and then another without, that would be the best.
Thank you~

Multi cart - AES
Hey all,
I’m fairly new to the neogeo scene, and looks like I came into this a bit late.
I was wondering if anyone had a spare 161 in 1 multi cart for AES they would sell? Working preferably, and version 3.
I’m based in Australia, but shipping cost no issue.

Higher volume on board causes video interference
Hi guys, I got this consolized Neo Geo MVS and connected it to my TV. Picture is great, but sound was very low so I had to turn up my tv volume so much that I could hear the irritating static noise.
I found out that the Speaker slider on the board was set to the middle. I turned it further up but could see the picture change and showing interference everytime the sound or music was playing.
Can you give me some advice on how to deal with this and what could be the cause?

Are any of the console versions of NeoGeo games better than the AES versions?
Title. Managing a collection and want to eliminate duplicate titles where possible.

AES stick - Golden logo replacement decal
Hello everybody!
Would you happen to know where to find stickers/decals to replace the faded Neo-Geo logo on a AES stick? Mine is completely gone and, you know...it doesn't feel the same without that golden logo.
I've looked everywhere and didn't find anything I could use for this. I'd be surprised if they don't exist though, I'm sure I'm not alone on this one.
Thanks!

Winter Restoration Project?
Just fired up my Arcade cab that has been in storage for over 12 years. Was expecting worse but fired up well and CRT looks decent ! Thinking of breaking it down and giving it a deep clean over the winter and setting it back up in the basement to enjoy. One of the wood panels needs to be replaced and re laminated ! Very pleased overall, buttons need the contacts cleaned as well

It might not be the official controller, but I love the design!
Maybe one day I’ll own the real deal. But for now I’ll have to do with the Neo Geo X dock and the controller.
I’m getting the Pro Stick soon, and soon after that a mini. Than, I’ll start saving for the real hardware.

NeoBiosMasta 1.7 on a MV-1F board.
I have an MV-1F board and NeoBiosMasta 1.7 w/Unibios 4 chip on the board.
I'm just looking for the best instructions for this match-up (Video or text is fine as long as all the steps apply to this board / bios combo). I'm unclear on the old bios chip removal / pin clipping preference for this project and just want to be clear, so I don't cut or remove something only to find out there are MV-1F specific instructions.
