Saw this facebook post from another group that is defending Tommo:

I had no idea NeoGeo history was fraught with so much angst.
Maybe it's best I stay ignorant then. lolYou clearly have never been to Neo-Geo.com before, then. Neo-Geo.com forum members have pretty much hated NeoGeoFreak for many years, so if NGF is supporting Tommo, that's just another sign of how badly Tommo has alienated the Neo-Geo fan community...
In this case, if you go to neo-geo.com you'll find anti-NeoGeoFreak stuff from at least 2000, maybe even earlier, for their selling conversions and such (taking one AES game and replacing the roms with some other, higher-value title and then selling that, I believe).
And yes, it's definitely a community infamous for its drama.
I was hoping to at least get vsynch but alas. Looks like this sort of deal is never happening again.
Finally got around to checking my firmware. 370, so I guess I'm good. *PHEW*
This is a launch unit by the way.
I agree Blue Submarine No. 6, I was hoping to grab this much cheaper, but don't want to risk loosing out on it.
Are there FW issues with all the launch units? I bought one pretty close to launch and I can play the mega pack just fine.
I'm in the same boat. Launch unit and 370.
But there is a newer update, right? Only available by buying one of the game packs?
Rats, I was hoping for a card with Turf Masters on it.
Ok SNKP. Now, please, go to M2's offices, bring some money (I guess it won't take more than what you already wasted for this fiasco) and start the NeoGeo Station project over again. Just, don't forget to bring it on the e-Shop too (especially 3DS' e-Shop), ok?

You already had in your hands the perfect formula to combine easy profit and the sheer quality to make even NG purists happy. And yeah, you dropped it all in favour of this piece of crap.
Please, don't fuck it up twice.
PS - I'm sorry for the fellow gaffers, but it genuinely came out from the bottom of my heart.
I´d be down on SNK titles on 3DS so hard. It already has a proper 320x240 screen, games would look awesome.
That's beautiful!I planned to get that mega pack but then I realized I was shit out of luck because I had fw 3.37. What a bunch of bullshit. So I did myself a favor and got this instead

What !?To play the Mega pack, you need to update fw that comes with the cartridge. Problem is, only Neo Geo X handheld with fw 3.7 can be updated. If you bought the NGX at launch as I did, your NGX fw is 3.37 and there is no way to update it, which mean you can not play the Mega pack cartridge. The only way to solve this is sending the 3.37 NGX to Tommo and they will send you a new NGX with 3.7 fw but the process takes weeks and you pay for shipping and handling.
