@ApexSeeker_ I'm American, but have worked with and known many people from Japan. I had great times with them and great admiration for Japan and would love to visit someday.

@SEGA Oh, and I also owned Game Gear and Nomad! I should never have sold so many of my systems. :-/

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@SEGA Happy Birthday, SEGA!!! I've owned Master System, several Genesis versions, Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast... ah the good old days. Bring on Virtua Fighter 6!

@GameNativeApp Thank you, that worked! GameNative is sooo good.

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@MrSujano I tried it and noticed in one of my favorite games, Megabonk, that the online leaderboards don't populate. It's funny seeing my sad score as the global #1 though. :-P It does populate when I run the game using Gamehub Lite, but I do think Gamenative is the better app overall.

@PixelCNinja If we could just get a 4:3 version... but I know we won't.

@JustSerii I would LOVE to have that TV. You are very lucky to get one for free. Enjoy!

@JavaidUsama I love my Thor. I also own a Steam Deck OLED, but haven't hardly used it since getting my Thor last year. I agree with Nima - it's basically the best handheld that money can buy if you value portability and versatility.

@JM_NewBreed That would've been very interesting to have a Dragon Quest for NeoGeo! But, how to make it viable for an arcade-centric platform? I guess in the end it couldn't work financially. There was only SSRPG on CD, and only in Japanese language until the fan translation.

@JM_NewBreed AES+ sales must be much higher than 5000 units. I read this article for example: https://t.co/Zwxf5pOKAh

"Within the first 24 hours, we took more paid preorders than our entire annual forecasted volume of the Neo Geo AES+. Since then, sales have continued strongly..."

@neogeostyles I'm in USA. Looking forward to international shipping in June. Good luck with the new store!

@ChrisRozenbachs @JM_NewBreed That is awesome! Mikami is an awesome guy and real classic NeoGeo pixel artist! Wish I could visit japan.

@tsuruo3_ I saw this being sold on ebay. It's a Chinese reproduction of SC-19, but has an LCD screen. I wish SNK could sell an official one. Sad there are no new CRT's anymore. :-/

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@JM_NewBreed Shock Troopers is so good! Now, I will always think to myself "Mikami" when I look at the pixel art in that game.

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@BEEP_akihabara Beautiful! Unfortunately I don't live in Japan or I would try to buy it!

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@CrazyVibes_1 But, we weren't "feral" and things felt more sane back then. As a NYC kid I started riding the subways on my own at 13. You learned to handle yourself, to be aware. Same for kids in different settings. I feel bad for later generations who were smothered & coddled.

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@neonarcadegrant Nice. I used to go there often back in the day!

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@gamer_lafan Japanese candy cabs are beautiful. Unfortunately in USA they are rare, and the very few that may appear for sale seem very expensive and not in great condition.

[TapperP @tapper_p]

@revenant_MMXX I've had my Superstation One for a couple of months and love it. I ordered mine the second pre-orders went live. For those waiting - it is worth it. I have the transparent blue version. It has been very reliable and fun to use. Now waiting on the dock to ship.
