I'd settle for Blazing Star which is one of my favourite shoot-em-ups and Metal Slug 3 which I consider to be the best of the Metal Slug series.

I'd need a fighting game too wouldn't I? OK, make mine Samurai Shodown, either the second or the third one.

Magician Lord

Metal Slug (1-3), though not for myself as I have the anthology, but I'd like some other people to be able to get into them that wouldn't buy the anthology.

Puzzle Bobble 1 & 2
Windjammers
Aero Fighters 2
Neo Bomberman
Super Dodge Ball
etc, etc

I have the Metal Slug Anthology (60Hz compatible), so I'm not counting those.


I hope they'll be using the Neo-Geo CD releases, by the way.

I don't really know what games are on neo geo, samurai showdown looks good, I'll see the reveiw before I decide wether to buy it or maybe wait for a sequal, and I might get majician lord, I'm not really a fan of fighters wich seems to be what most neo geo games are and I have metal slug anthology so, I guess there's not many games I would get for neo geo.

edit: are there any side scrollling beat em ups on neo geo?

I don't know a lot about the Neo Geo, as they weren't exactly in abundant supply when I was younger, but I do really enjoy the Magical Drop games, and I'd like to see them released.

My top/only picks would be The Last Blade series.

And one of these uber-shmups. Specifically the one, I forgot the name of.
Damn! It had millions of animations making 2D sprites look 3D, big lazer weapons, fast paralax scrolling, action packed to the limit.

These two games left good impressions.


They're not comparable to the likes of that crappy Fatal Fury or the trash beat'em up World Heroes! These really look and play and sound like cheap first generation SNES games without any Neo Geo power, so don't be faked by the first sad Neo Geo entries. There are much better fighting games coming, so save your moneys. And yes, Art of Fighting is unbearable too.
Magician Lord looks decent although, I don't know it but it looks fun even if it's technically SNES level again.

Good question. We're certainly lacking good racers on VC right now.

Racers? Not many, and only top-down viewpoint, I think:
Thrash Rally: http://www.neo-geo.com/reviews/neo-r...rashrally.html
Overtop: http://www.neo-geo.com/reviews/neo-r...p/overtop.html

There are a couple low radar games I like to get from playing them on Gametap:

Twinkle Star Sprites: (It's free on Gametap if you want to try it.)
Please bare the cute name, and the overall "silly and cute atmosphere" for a truly unique top-down, competitive shooter. Taking some stuff from multiplayer puzzle games like Tetris and Puzzle Fighter; you try to shoot as many of the enemies on your side as possible and try to link up lots of combo strings. Accomplishing this will throw projectiles to your opponent, but your opponent (and you) can shoot those back with either charged up shots or bombs (limited), or dodge them. The first to lose all their hit points loses the game.

Other memorible mentions

Windjammers
Samurai Shodown 2
Senjoku 2 and 3

Yep, as Balrog said, the three Sengoku games. There's also Burning Fight (which I suppose in a way is a little bit like Final Fight), RoboArmy (where the main characters are robots), Mutation Nation, and Ninja Combat.

Thats what I can remember off the top of my head.

I'm looking forward to Ninja Combat and League Bowling.

Is Magician Lord a good game? I was thinking about getting it, but I changed my mind because I wasn't so sure...

It's a good game, but it's very very tough... it's up there with Ghouls N Ghosts, probably even a bit more so.

Any game that serves as an alternative to beat-'em-ups on the Neo Geo is welcome, even if they're few and far between

Yeah, And the copies are REALLY expensive too. I hope they bring it to the VC, because theres really no other chance for most people to play it, and I hear it's great (But frustatingly hard).

I just saw a copy on Ebay.co.uk for £29.99, but it was the mush easier to find Dreamcast version. That doesn't meant the Dreamcast version is easy to find though.
