In terms of 1CCing from easiest to hardest.
1. Fighting games-These games are pretty much designed for 1CC. Whenever you lose a round or none, they are designed with it in mind as sometimes you can only get credits by doing a 1CC. Relying on skill and other kinds of tactics to win, it's almost always possible to 1CC a fighting game. Note that many are between 20-30 minutes with many even under 20 minutes as well.
2. Shoot em ups-This is a hardcore genre, but one that mainly focuses on memorization more than anything. There's lots of skill involved, but they are also designed to be 1CC as once you memorized pretty much everything and have good reflexes you can 1CC them. They tend to have extra lives, sometimes an overpowered weapon that can get you through the game faster, and are pretty much always built for 1CC. These games tend to be 20-30 minutes as well so that makes it better.
3. Beat em ups-For some reason I have the most trouble with this genre. I have 1CC beat em ups, but a lot of them are tough. This is due to them being designed to take away quarters more than anything else. I mean, a lot can be 1CC, but usually you have to do crowd control and rely on insane tactics to get anywhere. It doesn't help that various ones don't have extra lives, they often start you with 2 lives or even 1 life for some odd reason(should be 3) and have annoying enemies and bosses they tend to be cheap or pretty powerful to drain your health in a few hits. This genre to me is one of the most frustrating ones due to the fact that pretty much everything has to go your way in order to 1CC them, though it's fun to do still at least. It also doesn't help that they are usually between 40 minutes to over an hour long, and even 1 hour and 30 minutes at times.
Many Neo Geo games are fighting games, so 1CC is doable for practically all of them.
Also when it comes to putting in continues, only rely on single digit numbers, double digits is pretty much credit feeding at that point.=p

There's an emulation bug on the third part of Terry's stage. Didn't notice any issue graphically otherwise.
Same slowdowns as the arcade version. Didn't notice input lag from what I've played, but I don't think anybody has really tested it yet, unlike the PS4 version being worse than the 360 one for example.
Is there proof that the ps4 version is worse than the 360 one? a friend told me that it was the same
Yes, I was wrong
Not really. They might have a montage of upcoming games and it might have a few seconds of footage that people here would be able to parse through...but I seriously doubt it.
No clue.
I think that it should come next month on ps4, they already have released 94 and 95 on sucessive order
It was in the trailer for Switch, so it'll come. Not sure how many games from that trailer are still unreleased, but I guess it should come out within the next month.
Sweet! Really like 96 for whatever reason.
Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors for Switch and The Last Blade for PS4/XBO are now available in Japan.

If only I knew how to graft a NeoGeo Pocket Color's 8-way joystick onto a left joycon...

My personal favorite is Shock Troopers. An excellent game all around and great in co-op.

Question!
Why oh why sometimes in neo turf masters the game picks for me a 240 and if I decide I want a 260 then my high- nice - low bar gets reduced to a hairline making it super difficult to use it? Where's the logic in that?

You can also buy T-shirts from SNK's official store Neogeo Land on Amazon Japan. Right now they only have KOFXIV ones though.Fangamer dropping that good shit

While not Neo Geo games, these two 1993 Irem arcade releases would have seemed right at home (and in the arcades) on the Neo Geo hardware with their advanced 16-bit graphics. In one case, very colorful visuals, and in the other, highly detailed, well animated, Metal Slug esque graphics.
I'd love to see them on Switch.

I'd love a recommendation.
I'm not too experienced with the new geo library or SNK fighters. I am interested in:
Garou
KoF '98
Metal Slug
The thing I can't decide is whether to go for the Switch versions or PS4 for some of these. For instance I know KoF 98 isn't on PS4 yet but older entries are, and the PS4 version of Garou is different with online play, but supposedly the 360 version is best?
Do the Switch versions generally play the same as the PS4 versions of these games? I'd like to have the portability of the Switch, but not if there are any fatal flaws on it vs PS4.
Is Garou best for PS4 , 360 (BC on XB1), or Switch? - are there any content differences on the pricier PS4 version?
What's the best Metal Slug to get, 1 or 3? What platform? Does it matter?
Is KoF worth getting if I am getting Garou? Is Garou the better game?
I know this post is all over the place but I feel like my brain is being scrambled sorting through all of this before plunking down my money. Thanks in advance.

Metal Slug 1 is, was, and always will be the best Metal Slug.
Metal Slug 3 is very, very hard, especially if you haven't played the others. There's also a twist that has more impact if you've played the first two.

If you are really interested in Garou:MOW, I would recommend going with the PS4 version in all honesty. It is a full fledged port with online modes and other extras such as an art gallery.
Getting it on switch for the portability is still a great option, but the price difference isn't that much and the PS4 version just has more content.
Just my two cents.

Two considerations here:
1. If you buy it on PS4, you also get the Vita version, so you will still have a portable option.
2. The PS4 version supposedly has more input lag than other versions (though the Vita version is reportedly fine). Some say that it was improved with a patch, but I haven't seen a definitive answer.

In the Hunt is one of the best arcade games of all time, period. The feeling of power and destruction is in some ways still unrivaled, and was simply astonishing at the times back then.
If I'm not wrong, Metal Slug team was substantially the people that made In the Hunt.

I'd kill for a NGPC style left Joy-Con.
Everything in this post is true. Looove In the Hunt, even if it kind of falls apart towards the end.

In the Hunt is good, but there's some pretty sketchy design here and there. That one gimmick level where you're in shallow water comes to mind, and the final boss is kind of underwhelming and I'm pretty sure is impossible to beat within the time limit.
Still a great game though. I really love the statue boss.

Without a doubt. The Saturn port is really good, too.
Yep, that's true from everything I've read.
