Thread 12114515

God damn! This might be the best retro “controller”. 1st time playing Neo Geo. So let’s have a Neo Geo thread.

Post your setup OP. Is this a MVS or AES or are you being a scrub and emulating?

If you enjoy Sengoku, you'll love Sengoku 2. It's a step up in every way.

objectively inferior to pads outside of African American game genres.

God Damn! You might be the most naive retro "gamer"

The Neo Geo AES controller is made of quality components, but it's just a typical arcade-grade controller. It's not really better in any way than any other arcade stick with Seimitsu or Sanwa parts.

>are you being a scrub and emulating?
Scrubs are the guys who play alone on real hardware.
Real ones play via emulation on fightcade against other people.

I think it also has a 30mm ball-top (compared to the 35mm standard) and also only 4 buttons compared to the 8 standard. It's a good controller but you can just use a normal arcade stick with Seimitsu parts and have a better time.

Playing an AES is a tactile delight. You get this big, flat gamepad with a perfectly clicky stick and featherweight buttons you can mash to absolute hell with no resistance. Nothing is better than slapping that shit down on your lap and kicking back with a few brews in front of the TV.

You don't need more than 4 buttons because that's all the games used, and it's easy to replace the ball top with a 35mm.

MiSTer core with a db15 snac adapter. Shit ton of wires, but it just werks.

>>12115758
Okay but if we're talking retro arcade controllers, then the Namco PS1 stick obviously clears.

How likely is it that I'm the only person to have played all the way through Metal Slug 2 on an MVS while wearing cyberlox?

I wouldn't do it again because Metal Slug X exists.

>>12115117
when was the last time you saw a nigga playing a shmup?

>>12114515 (OP)
the Hori AES stick is even better than the official

>>12116159
Its a geodesic dome.

>>12117045
The microswitches for both the lever and the buttons are identical between the AES controller and the Hori Neo Geo stick. But the Neo stick does have 30mm buttons.

If you were a real OG and not an 09-er, you'd know what this word actually meant.

lol

arcade stick is always superior to pads for retro games. The arcade stick was the standard for video games and pads were just a cheaper half measure to box with systems.

this is gayer than two dicks touching bro
