Mine shipped today as well, cant wait!
Whats the verdict on those 161 in 1 mvs carts? Accuracy/glitches? The seller included one with the system.
whoah, you got an Omega + multicart? damn that's a good find right there

Controller arrived! Time to try the Omega out! Testing out the Omega Consolize Neo Geo MVS: http://www.twitch.tv/kevinlarrabee
Whats the consensus on the 151 in 1 MVS carts?
I have one - plus Nam 1975, Cyberlip, and Windjammers - but was never sure if the emulation is close to originals since the other games I own don't appear on the multicart.
Anyone ever do some comparisons?

Thanks for this. What exactly is wrong with the Wii Version of Metal Slug Anthology? I heard the PS2 version has stupid loading times and slow down but I thought that was improved upon greatly in the Wii Version?
Watching as well. Figure anything out with those two scanlines? Seems weird.
watching, looks great. There seems to be two scanlines sticking, though.
hey c'mon ova for dinnaaaaaa!
there are known glitches & occasional freezes w/ multicarts, but they're pretty solid compared to other jamma multiboards. if there are some titles on there you really like, you're better off tracking down the original MVS...or borrow it from me ya son of a bitch!
Yeah,
Definitely seems weird. Watching it as well. Guess it is on the framemeister side if it was on the 4-Slot. Just gotta fiddle with those settings.
Here is a much more in depth look at the Omega: http://backinmyplay.com/hands-on-omega-consolized-neo-geo-mvs/
NeoGeo Station on the PS3/PSP/PS Vita was produced by the awesome wizards at M2
I am interviewing Shadowkn55, creator of the OMEGA right now, really cool dude!
Well they are considered piracy so dont flaunt it too much around here.
Gameplaywise should be ok, some games out of the 161 might not boot up at all. Half of the contents are fun Rainbow Editions of fighting games that are good for tournament play

So I'm thinking into getting into Neo Geo hardware. It is pretty much the only remaining platform I care about that is missing in my retro collection.
What is the best/cheapest consolized MVS solution out there? The only output format I care about is RGB (for plugging into a Sony PVM), preferably something that can take SCART out of the box. Unibios already modded in would also be a requirement. It doesn't have to look fancy or anything, I can also go for supergun-based solutions if they're cheaper.
I have also looked into the Neo Geo CD but was not impressed by the library, too many must-have games are missing, so I'm not considering it. And as is mentioned in the OP the AES is just not worth it because of how expensive the games are.

Cheapest would be Omega CMVS, one from Jamma Nation X, or maybe get someone on the Neo-Geo forums to make you one?
The only neo geo i ever owned was the pocket color. I loved it
Interview went great! about 60 minutes of Neo Geo love and the history behind the Omega. Really interesting stuff! Look for it mid week on the website and iTunes feed.
Jamma Nation X has a good deal on a CMVS they make. You can get RGB output on it for $350. Seems like a good deal to me.
Wow that's actually cheaper than I was hoping for. Well there's still the matter of getting controllers, but nevertheless...
Details are rather sparse though, does it have a plain AES/CD connector that is compatible with the SCART cables sold by retro_console_accessories?
I think the main way you would hook it up would be RGB to SCART cable and then a SCART to JP21 adapter which retro_console_accessories sells. The mini only has input for a JP21 wired cable as far as I understand.
What do you guys think about the Neo Geo Controller Pro:

It's fine for me. But it's the only stick I've used for the system, so I don't have anything to compare it to.What do you guys think about the Neo Geo Controller Pro:
I was pretty excited for this when it was announced, but waited when it was released. Glad I did, as it seems it was such a wasted opportunity. =(Bought a brand new Neo Geo X Gold console with the Mega Pack Vol 1 for a total of $100 AUD today.
And into the cupboard it goes! Fuck this thing.
I dont really want the multi as opposed to the actual carts, but its a good way to test out unknowns since it was bundled anyway.
yeah, stick looks good by me!
well if you decide you don't want the multi/want to offset some costs, lemme know, i might be interested in that thing!
Being a crazy person, I feel the need to have a second Neo Geo X controller so I can fully complete this shit show.
Any ideas on where to get them?
Toys R Us has them for $49
Well I'll be! I never thought to consider such a thing existed. (Though it makes perfect sense--virtually every other system has controller adapters.)Also worth noting if you have a PS1 or PS2 stick / controller you prefer, tototek makes a good adapter to let you use them on Neo Geo.
Are there any affordable Neo Geo sticks that uses Sanwa parts (or a good enough imitation like the Hori ones)? My brain has been conditioned to only accept those, everything else feels terrible.
I'm aware of a Hori-made stick called the Fighting Stick Neo II. Hori parts but the dimensions are similar to the Sanwa stuff you're used to .

What's your budget? Aren't Hori sticks around the same price as the regular AES sticks?Yeah I know about this stick and I'm sure I would love it, but it's a bit on the expensive side (especially if I want two of them).
