Agozer Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 A long time ago, when we still had arcades over here, Neo-Geo was the shiz. Since I'm not much of an arcade player, I never played in the Arcades. The first time I played a real arcade Neo-Geo was in a small grocery store not far from my house (Metal Slug), and later in Mallorca (Samurai Shodown). I think we had our own Neo-Geo Land back when SNK was marketing it in Europe, but I don't remember ever visiting there. The loading times were only in Neo-Geo CD. The original AES had a strong following, but many kids weren't able to get it thanks to the insane pricetag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken_cinder Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I love how launch is done on a Tuesday though. This means these people have the best chance of getting one. #1: People who work nights (Mind you I'd want to go home and sleep, and if you work midnights......you miss midnight launches) #2: People on the welfare (I'd be willing to bet many of these people will spend their check on a 360 roofles) #3: Stay at home soccer moms buying one for their kids #4: Morons losing a days pay, to take the day off to buy a 360. (Wheres the "YOU ARE AN IDIOT!" website?) For the rest of us who work during the day, it's a big "FLOCK YOU!" Why the hell wouldn't you launch on a Friday?Good thing I'm not stupid enough to ever pay launch prices for a console anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 #2 and #3 are the kind of people that are there right now. Except it's not soccer moms, they just gave the money to their children and will pick them up whenever they buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 A few places in are holding midnight launches and giving away tickets for those who didn't pre-order at selected Curcit Citys. There are no midnight lanuches in my area, but I won't be getting one anymore. Mostly because my cel phone company is a bit ch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hey Gryph, DO NOT go to ebay and look at 360s. you may become suicidal from the thought of missed opportunity. we're talking triple your investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
