Is Nostalgia worth $450??

NEO GEO was huge in the 90s as the brand you'd see often at arcades. They did have a console but it never took off compared to Sega and Nintendo. You can take home this retro-looking arcade, but we're not sure if the memories are worth $450.

@ 2:49 you left a flake of shake, bro!
Thanks for the review. I just ordered one of these. Good think I happen to have a bag of Happ controls buttons laying about. LOL ;)
I want more Anthony but where's Brian the Electrician??
When I see like, I click Anthony...
I'm very impressed with Anthony's knowledge. Knowing that the buttons were not Sanwa Denshi... put a smile on my face.
$450 for an arcade machine. Even for a bartop, that's still really cheap
Antony god
This is less expensive tha the new airpods max nonsense wow.
As I understand it, some actual NeoGeo carts can still go for a hefty price. This just sounds like a lower cost way of skipping all that.
bring on the hacks :) I want to know if they will allow you to use own roms, because there is no need for those 2 extra buttons. maybe we can put street fighter games or something.
Agree on the exclusion of Turfmasters...that's a great game!!
I’ve spent 500 for just like 3 mvs carts, collecting aes is even more expensive
No
>non crt no its not
ANTHONY
Happs controls and USB board via Amazon, wood via Home Depot, and a Raspberry Pi 4, will get you something infinitely better for like half the price.
One word TELLURITE.
What are these better alternatives? 🤔
Lol, in this shape this is not worth 45 bucks
Not very appealing iiiiihihiihhiiihiihhhhiiiiiiiiiiii get it?
omg - it’s finally out - a MVS mini!
Now this is worth buying!
just shave your head
after seeing the build up i'm probably just gonna build one
Build your own with a PC and use it as a media center connected to a TV. Problem solved. Get two birds stoned at once.
I paid that much refurbishing a REAL Street Fighter 2 6 button full size Cabinet with a MAME computer inside and Hyperspin. So no, it's not worth it.
Anthony is the man!!
in my aera there is a gut he build standard arcade with all the print you want on the outside and light and sound ''like a real one''with all the games ever made for 1400..he have good review
Hair. Just give up...
why the fuck is this a 6 button cab
Things are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them.
okay, shortcircuit is, as Linus said, not the place for reviews but for unboxings. What Anthony did at the end sounded a lot like a review. Maybe the line between unboxing and reivew is really that blurry.
I am pretty sure they told Bob from RetroRGB that he could not take it apart for the video, but you guys can because, F you, we're LTT?
Awesome. Thanks for the video - well done. I had a full size emulator-style arcade machine and ran out of room so had to sell it. This would work well for me. Thanks!
ShortCircuit should just be the Anthony channel.
Well $450 is probably a bit much even with the screen, keyboard and everything. It is a big thing. At least there is a good selection of games, unlike the capcom board one who only has a dozen games for a wopping £200-ripoff. Alternatively the Neogeo mini is certainly a cheaper alternative. Also you can get plenty of neogeo collections discs for console or pc too.
dude go see a hair doctor it's not too late
450? ooofff! i paid 300€ for a real early '90s arcade cab featuring a 25" CRT in full working order past year, and i was conflicted about my nostalgia bias on the value of things. This product makes me feel WAY less guilt now
4:42 you know they cut him reading up all of the languages in the list. (:" excellent review!
Such a smoothly spoken nerd. Exactly the content I subscribed for.
for anyone actually wanting to play NeoGeo and not just buying something like this for interior decoration reasons I'd recommend Mister FPGA. few frames extra lag with software emulation might not sound like much but you will feel the difference when playing on hardware instead.
What a Joke.....
I set up MAME with scanlines and self-made ultra hires slot mask on a 5K monitor. Hard to tell the difference with a CRT and makes the old games look fabulous.
All these games are available for free on Amazon Prime games.
450 for waaaay outdated games you might play 5 times for 499 for a new xbox or ps hmmmm id pay 100 for it as a novelty thing but no way im breaking 4-500 specially when i can play all those games on my phone and have played them on it
It's neat, but not $450 neat. Closer to $250 neat.
Anthony is the best
If you dont like the buttons, these are the type you can swap out for higher standard ones.
Love this channel
This guy needs to loose some weight and also shave his head.
Nice piece of nostagia, but not worth $450 because most people could build an emulation machine based on Raspberry Pi 4 for less than $250 (including arcade cabinet, arcade joystick, and monitor)
Really great video (mad props to Anthony, one of my faves) and NEOGEO hit the market right when arcade based gaming bottomed out and kept going... which is too bad they had a lot of great games for the time (esp the Baseball games). Even with a hefty nostalgia factor, for the price point vs games vs hardware... I'd have to pass.
The peel isn't worth $450
I love to see Anthony. He has such a smooth voice. He could read books and i would watch it. The thumbnail selection is brilliant. Review of a home game arcade system is done by the no nonsense guy.
My controller alone costs around 450. So having a two player system with games on it is pretty cool for the price.
1990s Kids thinking about buying a NEO GEO: "Too expensive." 2020s Adults thinking about buying a NEO GEO: "Too expensive."
Those button sounds are so satisfying
WHY IS THERE NO BANANA FOR SCALE?!?!
good lord that is just ugly as hell....but the arcade box isnt too bad.
Noe Geo was a Console for rich kids. Most of them the same as arcade games.
Ashens did it better
ANTHONY, KING OF ALL GEEKS, HAS SPOKEN!
SNK these days is nothing more than another cheap, crappy Chinese company selling more cheap, crappy Emulation machines, only this one acquired the rights to SNK & can thus slap the SNK name on stuff and charge more for it. Considering how obviously cheaply made this thing is, I can only imagine the profit margins they are making off this thing. I mean they're charging nearly $500 for it, for what is essentially nothing more than a cheap Android based Emulation box, LCD display and some plywood, and still couldn't be bothered to put decent buttons in the thing. This is the typical Chinese business model these days. They are getting STUPID rich off of us over in China, they really are.
This guy has a great voice...easy to listen to compared to most
If it actually had a real CRT in it then it would definitely be worth the price.
Just give Anthony his own channel pls
If I'm paying $450 I expect Anthony to come included in the box so I can play Metal Slug with him.
Bro..cut your hair...a few hairs in front then a giant bald spot looks odd..
Let's be honest, it should've costed no more than 300
It is since I can’t get a new GeForce card this holiday 🤣
I dont like this guy.
I’m a simple man; I see Anthony, I click.
Anthony makes the best videos
You need a step stool to unbox that bad boy lol
no turf masters! no sale.
Anthony is the BEST GUY of the whole team so far. But this time I don’t understand him, no arguments but saying it’s not worth it.🤷♂️ And since when an arcade cabinet has clicking buttons?...🤦♂️ Anyway, one more guy who doesn’t know its subject and trash talks it because another guy did the same before him and so well, doing same is the easiest way to review... Disappointing Anthony. Or maybe is he too young for knowing the arcade area in past? A guy from 1980.
Mm I wouldn't buy 450 300 maybe I've have seen cheaper then 400 for more in Aus just saying. I'm working on blinding my own.
I had a Neo Geo AES system when I was a kid. Didn’t get very many games for it as they retailed for $300/each. I remember trading it with 5 games to a friend for a Sega Genesis + Sega CD and about 100 games for them.
I built my own Arcade cabinet
for £450 I got PS5 + retro games from PS Shop - P.S. I have bigger LCD than this.
Everyone loves Anthony
Anthony is the best!
I don't know if you've done a video on them yet, but... My RetroPie is the coolest electronics gadget I've bought since my first smart phone. With a 128GB image on AcradePunks dot com and $140 spent at Microcenter, I've got over 7,000 game titles from 30'ish consoles or arcade systems. It's the coolest.
I don't think you can have nostalgia for something that didn't exist or isn't true to the original. Further I'd say it's something you can't have if you didn't own the item at the time. This is just an unboxing. I clicked, liked, and stayed for Anthony though.
No, its not worth it.
cut your hair...
You cannot put a price tag on nostalgia. :)
Very nice review.
that peel was a dealbreaker
As someone who went to film school & who has worked in the TV industry for over a decade, I really hate things like fake film grain in digital footage. Adding film grain, record scratchiness or CRT scan lines is taking the worst part of those technologies, not the best.
Is there something preventing a full Metal Slug series release, including the ill advised 3D evolution? I've only noted a few and the remix version... and that odd mobile ready tactics hallway defense, dlc platform release.
The price seems reasonable considering they done all the work. I'm sure that I can get a cheap computer or laptop with an arcade controller for the same price and that would give a better experience with game options and customization. That still a nice piece to have at home.
This is a pretty neat product. I wonder how it compares to the full size machines you can buy at Walmart, besides the fact that they only come with a hand full of games.
That's an atrocious deal with no adaptability for new ROMs etc, not to mention it is small and the two player sets are cramped up as hell.
Great video...very fair and concise. Worth the money? Depends on who of course im getting one because of the mods ill be able to do and just because i love the big red. I see Viewpoint....neo turf masters and many more on this eventually 😀😄
yes! Anthony talking calmly about random tech. just what I wanted!
Man short circuit is always so fun, I have no interest in most of the stuff here but having people passionate about different things and experiencing it is fantastic, and always a joy to watch
Makes me want to build my own cabinet and throw an old PC in there. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but some day.
Oh, this is actually real. lmao When I first heard about this I was like "There's no way this is real" lmao
450 is a steal over there...here in AU , that's closer to 800, no thanks !!
