RE: Hidden Gems of the Neo Geo: Three brilliant, but obscure titles for the 16 bit, 2D powerhouse
NEO-GEO games used the same carts at home and at the arcade. They were the only system that could really bring the arcade experience home. They also had arcade style controllers.
The only system until Dreamcast, which was basically just a consolization of the Naomi arcade board. Both are legendary for bringing arcade classics into the home with no sacrifices.
And both, sadly, are legendary for being commercial flops here.
Popularity and greatness only rarely coincide, and even then it's mostly by chance.
