I'm going crazy...

Yes. PCB dumps don't have an AES mode though.

what do you mean PCB dumps? games ripped from the cabinet board?

[Agozer]

Games ripped from arcade boards that weren't Neo-Geo MVS boards. I know that at least SNK Vs. Capcom: Chaos, King of Fighters 2003 and samurai Shodown V Special have PCB dumps. They are always in japanese, and you can't change the region like you can with the MVS games.

 

AFAIK anyway.

How can you rip a game from a system it doesn't work on? I don't get it.

Normal MVS games are on carts like NES or N64, but some more recent (Metal Slug 5, SVC, and KOF2003 only afaik) are on single pcb boards. They're basically the MVS machine + cartridge on one board.

Dumped is the word, not ripped.

 

samurai Shodown V Special

Nope. MVS, AES, AES revision.

Also no. You can certainly change the region as easily as the mvs (replace the bios).

It's much easier to just go into the setup menu (of the bios) and change the language.

And every game I know of for Neo-Geo has AES mode code in them. Some of them need a small hack of the program to enable it. Some games have an incomplete/buggy AES mode kof2001 (set 1) and Riding Hero, for example.

Please excuse my tactlessness. You sure took a while to answer.

 

Nice to know about that region thing though.
