Worst Neo Geo games

[elvis8atari]

This will probably be a tough one. Since not many people own a Neo Geo. But for those that do have one, or have played a lot of games on it..

What do you think the worst games on it are?

AND if you had to choose, which would you say is THE worst one. Period.

Please try and give some reasons why as well

Love the Neo, it's probably my favorite system of all time.

Though this is pretty much tantamount to calling one of my children an ugly, bowlegged, rapscallion, I'll bite.

Art of Fighting
Fatal Fury (Love it, but it has aged terribly)
Super Spy (Repetitive as all hell)
Cyber Lip
Legend of Success Joe

Even if these are the worst games on the system, I'm still a sucker for the majority of them.

[mrmark0673]

How about the quiz games? I assume those are some of the crappiest on the system. I also have to echo how poorly Fatal Fury has aged, great for its time but doesn't hold up anymore.

[elvis8atari]

Oh, by no means was I trying to bash the Neo Geo. In fact, I've only played games I've enjoyed on it. Which is why I made this thread. I know there has to be a bunch of games that aren't good. I'm just wondering what they are...

I haven't played any of the quiz games as I have zero knowledge of the Japanese language. I've heard the Mahjong games are actually quite good though. I'd love to try Quiz King of Fighters barring the language barrier.


@Elvis

It's really impossible to say this without sounding like a rabid fanboy but I'm not surprised that's how you feel. In my opinion the Neo really does have an insane amount of quality software considering its small library (only about 177 games.)

While you'll definitely find a few flops on the hardware, the vast majority of the games on the system are a blast to play.

[Dangerboy]

I'm probably one of the few who adore Art of Fighting 1 - I had it on AES and Turbo Duo import at one point. I now have it on MVS and VC.

AoF 2 and 3 didn't really do anything for me, but I really liked 1's different approach to a fighting game. It was more 1 hit and move, rather than combo savvy.

I haven't played it, but I hear there's a CG type fighting game that's terrible...Rakguki or something...

Nam 1975 was great up until the last boss - then it became the suckiest, hardest game ever.

Sengoku has no flow, and get sold after a minute.

I can't think of any real *awful* games though, some poor ones, but nothing Bold Games wise.

[CosmicMonkey]

Considering the price of Neo Geo software, I tend to make sure that it's a definate 100% worthwhile purchase before spending the cash.

I think the most mediocre games I've played were Aero Fighters 2 and Top Hunter. I'd also stay far away from Ghost Pilots too; that really is crap.

Now go play some Last Blade or Garou and marvel in the wonders of SNK at it's very best.

The pre-rendered fighter you're thinking of would be Ragnagard. I haven't heard much good about that one myself.

AoF is a fun game, don't get me wrong, but, like Fatal Fury, it's so embarrassingly stiff and robotic.I have to admit though, the other night I played through Fatal Fury in my big red and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sengoku is the game that made me fall in love with the Neo, so I have to admit I'm really partial to it. I have to disagree with you about the flow of the game, jumping between ruined cityscapes and feudal Japanese battlefields in the clouds always made the game feel so epic, at least in my opinion. My main beef with the title is the fact that it is beyond cheap, any samurai enemy with a sword can kill you in short order, no matter how much of a drop you feel you had on them. It's unbalanced as hell, but i love it all the same.

Art of Fighting?!

TAKE IT BACK! That game is AWESOME.

Edit:
Read your explanation. You're... forgiven. For now. ;p

The only game I can think of would be Super Sidekicks 2. The game was fine, but the Chance scoring screen was horribly broken.

[otaku]

The neo has quite a few bad games and the majority of its library seems to be mediocre in quality but still I enjoy even these mediocre titles. And the excellent titles (Mark of the wolves! Metal slug series) are incredible and make the system worthwhile. I finally acquired one just this week :) haven't had a chance to play it yet though

[XYXZYZ]

For a long time, when I played a Neo Geo game (Usually a ROM) I kept in mind "this was a $200.00 cartridge" and I thought "would this be worth $200.00?" as I played. For example, when I played Burning Fight, I thought of all the SNES games I could buy with the $150 or whatever that cart costs at the time. I remember feeling bad, just thinking of paying $200.00 for Aggressors of Dark Combat while playing a ROM.

But now I have a better understanding of why these games were made, which was to make money for an arcade operator; I have a better understanding of arcade game value and just what arcade enthusiasts are investing in. So I'm not so hard on them now but I do tend to keep that mentality when buying Neo Geo games, I've never paid more than $80.00 for a Neo cartridge, so my collection consists of older AES games (Samurai Shodown, Fatal Fury Special, etc.) and a pretty good selection of MVS titles minus things like Blazing Star and Sengoku 3. (I hate how the recent MVS titles are primarily sold by collectors, thus always in complete kit form when all I want is a cartridge)

Having said all that, I think the worst Neo Geo game I've played would be Fight Fever, it looked and felt so cheap. It's been a long time though, I may gave to give that one another shot.

[Aussie2B]

There's nothing inherently wrong with quiz games, or any genre of gaming. If they accomplish what they set out to do and do it well, then they've created a good game. Not everyone may find it fun, but not everyone has the same tastes either.

I gotta say you guys are lucky if Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury are the worst Neo Geo games you've played. o_O Just within the fighting genre alone, give Fight Fever and Ragnagard a try. Good God are those games awful.

[figment1988]

Legend of Success Joe was imho, the worst Neo-Geo game ever. i thought it was all boxing until the mediocre final fight-esque scenes

[ccovell]

I'm fortunate never to have played Success Joe, so I'll say that the worst, most boring and dullest games I've played on the Neo-Geo have been Ninja Combat and Ghost Pilots. Joy Joy Kid is down on the list as well, due to its frustrating nature and "wrong" feel that's just so unlike Tetris.

[otaku]

Many of them still go for a couple hundred bucks but yes at least some are pretty cheap. Nice thing about these games is they seem to hold value and in the case of MVS could make you money if setup in public location.

[retroman]

i for one have never been a fan of Sengoku. Never thought it was much fun to play, and i didnt see anything that a Snes could not do. Not impressed at all.

[Tron 2.0]

The Super Spy i should say the stupid spy :p The game play is very repetitive no variety in the bad guys and the levels all look the same.

Not to mention i owned the game twice once when i had a aes and then again on mvs.

Though afther the second time i sold it.

[retro junkie]

Owning a bunch of retro systems causes me to have to keep some stored away and rotate at times for playing. My Neo Geo CD stays out and ready for a rumble. I'm a gamer that loves the arcade type games. The King of Fighters, Fatal Fury Special, Real Bout Special, Last Blade, love those games.

Some say that Robo Army is bad, but again I love playing it. Far east of Eden, Last Resort, or Sengoku 2 are some that I regularly play. The Samurai Spirit series has become my top favorites. Some have blasted the World Heroes series, but when I played one on an original Neo Geo I could not help but like them. Some have said that Gangan is bad, but again I find it enjoyable.

I even enjoy Sonic Wings 2 and Top Hunter. I often wonder what it is about the Neo Geo games that I find so addicting. You cannot repeat the arcade experience in your own home. That experience being, the adrenaline rush of trying to get the most gameplay as you can out of the limited amount of quarters that you have in your pocket. Owning the same arcade stand up is just not the same if you can retrieve the money afterward. Maybe it is the 2D gaming, the hand drawn sprites, the animation, the life in each background.

No matter which game is bad to one player, there seems to be another player out there that finds the game fun.

[elvis8atari]

So far this is what we got for bad NeoGeo games it seems

Neo Geo
Cyber-Lip
Ghost Pilots
King of Kings (fight fever)
Legend of Success Joe
Ninja Combat
Ragnagard
Robo Army
Sengoku
The Super Spy



Neo Geo CD
Joy Joy Kid
Gangan


Anything else ?

[Aussie2B]

Cyber-Lip is awesome. o_O I just wish the ending didn't terrify me so much.

I liked Ragnagard and Robo Army.

Also some games like Fatal Fury The King of Fighters and Art of Fighting have some merits.
Fatal Fury was one of the first games to feature a two players cooperative mode (2 players against CPU) and later a duel mode to choose who would be the winner. Art of Fighting was one of the first games to have a KI bar and special moves, I believe that there was a contest to find who would be the first player able to submit the correct secret move. The early games from S.N.K. also had characters that would improve upon gaming, learning new moves on the go.

[savageone]

Games like The Super Spy, Ghost Pilots, Cyber Lip (seriously?), Robo Army, and Sengoku really don't deserve to be on that list. These games are bad? Compared to what? Mark of the Wolves? Last Blade? Metal Slug? Those would be very unfair comparisons. That is kind of like saying Top Player's Golf is worse than it is (it's pretty standard for golf games of the time, hasn't aged real well) because Neo Turf Masters (secretly the best golf game ever, great to this day) is on the same system.

Even the mediocre Neo Geo games have some kind of "X factor" to them that many other games from the same time period simply do not have. Maybe it's because they were produced with arcades in mind. Maybe I'm just a softy for the Neo.

For me, there are really only 2 games that come immediately to mind and they've been mentioned:
Fight Fever (never released on the AES, for good reason)
Legend of Success Joe (one of the only non-quiz/non-mahjong games from that time period to not get released in english format on AES, for good reason)

[Nescollector]

Robo Army was a good game, and Sengoku is one of my favorite games on the Neo Geo. I use to play through the game all the time (using player two after running out of continues on player one) very good music.

[Tron 2.0]

Nam 1975 was great up until the last boss - then it became the suckiest, hardest game ever.

The boss at the end of,Nam 1975 is very cheap but there is a pattern to it.It's just a matter of getting into the rhythm to finsh the last boss off.

I know it sounds impossible untile i saw a member at neo-geo.com do a 1cc of it.

Wich even shocked me :eek:

[bangtango]

Not that it means anything but I remember back in the day that 2-3 of the gaming magazines said Burning Fight sucked. Of course they made this claim primarily because they thought it was a Final Fight/Streets of Rage clone. This was back during the era when any company doing a Sonic style platform game or a SFII style fighting game would get a 4 or 5 out of 10 from most gaming magazines.

I haven't played the original Fatal Fury for over 10 years, since I only ever tried it in the arcades. Did the Neo Geo version also have that dumb feature, like the SNES/Genesis versions, in which you could only select three characters in the 1-player game and were only able to use the other guys in a two player bout? I hated that.

Well, to be frank, Burning Fight IS a badly designed game. It's fun, but it can get very cheap at times. I'll be punching enemies and they can get two or three hits in anyway.

And Fatal Fury... you could only play as the three main characters. You couldn't play as the bosses. That was added in the console versions.

Out of all the Neo games I have on my MVS (Ms 1-5 and X, Super Dodgeball, Blazing Star, a slew of others) Aerofighters 2 sees about 10x the play time as anything else. Great Shooter, crazy to call that game mediocre.

Yes, it's terribly unfair to compare mediocre games to good ones.

Seriously, average Neo Geo titles are judged as such against similar games of their day. Ghost Pilots is terrible compared to Raiden II or MUSHA. Nam 1975 is awful next to Wild Guns or Pirates or similar Cabal-esque games. Cyber-Lip is thoroughly unremarkable (aside from the ending) up against Contra III, Gunstar Heroes, or any other action-shooter with decent level design and diagonal firing. If these games had been released for any system but the Neo Geo, they'd be long forgotten by now.

Of course, they're not the worst that the system has to offer, but the problem is that many devoted Neo Geo fans are so besotted with their system's library that they'll refuse to admit that any of its games are unsatisfying. We've already seen someone claiming they like Ragnagard, and I wouldn't be surprised if another poster pops up to say that they play Success Joe every day because it's really THAT GOOD.

Sonic Wings is a TATE game. The Neo version is an odd TATE to YOKO hybrid from a drunken one night stand. If I want to play Sonic Wings/Aero Fighters I'd like to play it free from the Neo's limitations, with the screen turned on it's side how it should be.

Fair enough if you like it though.

When all is said and done, there's really only about 15 AAA+ titles on the Ne Geo that are really worth keeping.

[Aussie2B]

I think it's the AES that really skews a lot of opinions on Neo Geo games. People either worship every game they buy, even the lousy stuff, just because of how dang much they paid for them, or it'll go the other way and they'll scrutinize the game based off of standards they would hold no other system's library to because they won't think the games are worth paying for unless they're the best of the best.

Personally, I think the MVS is the best way to experience the Neo Geo. Just about everything is reasonably priced, and the stuff that tends to be more expensive is that way because of quality and thusly demand. Without the prohibitive AES prices getting in the way, you can look at them for what they are (some may suggest ROMS, but I think that just encourages people to quickly brush off games that don't immediately hook them).

I am not familiar with the first Sonic Wings, but Sonic Wings 2/Aero Fighters 2 and Sonic Wings 3/Aero Fighters 3 are yoko game. All Neo Geo game were design to be play in yoko monitor since that many Neo cab have multiple game to switch from. Strikers 1945+ is also a native yoko game as it was to be play on Neo MVS hardware.

For topic of worst Neo Geo game:
My personal undesirables:
Super Spy (just don't like it :( )
Legend of Success Joe (played in emulation and it bad as they say)
Nam 1975 (I do not care for this style of game much)
Ghost Pilots (poor design for shooter and very long game!)


In reference to Top Player Golf, its is average game but when you are to play Neo Turf Masters, you can never go back… Neo Turf Masters is indeed my favorite golf game ever! My friend and I use to play match play in arcade and now we are able to finally play at home with the PS2 port!

[Tron 2.0]

Cyber-Lip is awesome. o_O I just wish the ending didn't terrify me so much.
I just wish it had a sequel since the ending in the original gives,you that to be continue vibe.

Other reason being i think the ms serise needs a break for a while.

[XianXi]

Super Bubble Pop, I literally owned it for 10 minutes then sold it.

But like the others have said,

LOSJ
Puzzled(Joy Joy Kid)
Fight Fever

[Adol]

Super Bubble Pop, I literally owned it for 10 minutes then sold it.


Is it a Neo geo game..?

[CosmicMonkey]

Yep, it's a homebrew game from Vektorlogic. It's only on MVS format, as the chap designed his own non-SNK copyrighted PCBs to publish games on.

[Sotenga]

No mention of 3 Count Bout? For what is, AFAIK, the only wrestling game for the Neo Geo, it sure does unfortunately blow. The AI is unfair, the fights really just come down to button mash-fests, some character designs are recycled, and the whole game just feels overall sloppy. I would have loved to see another full-fledged wrestling title on the NG that was worth a damn, but the closest we can get is playing as Big Bear in FF2/Special and Tizoc/Griffon Mask in Mark of the Wolves.

At the least, there is a supposedly awesome wrestler for the NGPC known as Big Bang Pro Wrestling. It's import only, but I think most of it is in English, so I should pick it up... but I digress. I agree the original FF has aged not well, I never beat The Super Spy because I just got freaking lost trying to navigate the horribly-designed building, Legend of Success Joe is just overall bad, Sengoku and Ninja Combat are two dry beat-em-ups, and there was this one horrible generic fighter that was as derivative as could be. I think it was called "Fight Fever?" It was just so... blah. And... bad. >_<

[Adol]

Like Neo Digger Man? :)

[CosmicMonkey]

Like Neo Digger Man? :)

I think NDM is only available as a conversion cart, using an SNK PCB from another game. But whatever, you wouldn't want to waste your money on either of them.

Last Hope really is the only really competent homebrew release specifically* for the Neo Geo system, and even that was a short run of converted home carts (Fatal Fury 3s iirc?).

The Vektorlogic boards are a new design and free of any SNK copyright. However, they're MVS-only, with Neo Bubble Pop as it's only game. If someone could come up with a similar design for home cart PCBs that would be good. I'd really love to see the Neo Geo pushed to it's absolute limits to see what the system really could do. I'm certainly looking forward to the next release from NG: Dev Team. However, the only Neo Geo development tools I've seen are those from Jeff Kurtz (http://www.neobitz.com/), which seem to be quite limited. The only pictures I've seen of actual development hardware came from NGF, unfortunately.



* Respect to Charles and his multi-platform Frog Feast. If anyone actually has a Frog Feast converted MVS/AES cart I'd love to see a picture.

[gameofyou]

I've liked most of the NEO games that I've played so far (including Cyberlip). One of the few games that I sold back was Riding Hero. Just a bad game, IMO.

[smork]

Riding Hero is terrible. I don't care what people say about Top Player Golf -- it's no good either. I understand the design of the times, but I lived through those times and played much, much better golf games on the PC prior to its release.

I've played 80% of the Neo CD library and a few more that are cart only.

Where's the hatred for Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer? It's horribly cheesy, the definition of cheap -- and I think completely unbeatable.

They're not bad games, but Magician Lord and Viewpoint are both damn near unbeatable (I've never beaten Viewpoint, and never Magician Lord w/o insane credit feeding).

I don't like Last Resort very much either, nor Super Spy. Power Spikes II sucks bad.

I like Cyber-Lip OK, and I like the Sengoku series, though 1 is the red headed stepchild of the family.

There are so-o-o-o many great games for the Neo, though, that one can overlook some bad apples.

Hmm.... I love Last Resort and can't get enough of it. And I agree with Sengoku, I really like the 2nd one more than the first.

It is odd or strange that, with the Neo Geo games, even the bad apples have their fans.

[kaedesdisciple]

It is odd or strange that, with the Neo Geo games, even the bad apples have their fans.

I'm an example of that. I know very well how bad Ninja Combat is, yet I love it. Why? Because it's the first game I remember playing on the Neo, so it has more sentimental value than anything else.

[Kitsune Sniper]

... That would explain why I friggin' love Art of Fighting. That was the first NeoGeo game I ever played. The second was Eightman and I hate it. :p

As for Sengoku, I wish 1 didn't cheat so much when it came to fighting guys with swords. 2's OK, it has great music. 3's my favorite. I don't care how much people complain about it, it's awesome.

Got an Aero Fighters PCB that I play on my egret from time to time, still like the second better. What shooters do you prefer on the Neo? Out of the shooters I have I find myself playing it over:

Last Resort
Blazing Star (Although I'm probably in the minority on this one)
Ghost Pilots

Most CPS-2 shooters will get billing over AF2 at my place (Dimahoo more than anything else), but there are very few shooters I like more than Aero Fighters 2, its a solid game.

[CosmicMonkey]

What shooters do you prefer on the Neo?

Blazing Star is the best shooter on the Neo Geo. Once you get into it and understand the scoring it really is a great game. I'm just completely bewildered by the last boss, I mean really, WTF? It also has the best video game intro sequence in the history of the world.

Pulstar and Last Resort are also highly enjoyable. One of my mates is really into Pulstar though; he'll happily sit there for hours blasting away.

Prehistoric Isle 2 is a pretty good blaster too, and rescuing people keeps it interesting.

Oh, and of course, Viewpoint. Top game.

[Tempest]

Blazing Star is the best shooter on the
Oh, and of course, Viewpoint. Top game.
I've been trying ot find an english MVS copy of Viewpoint for awhile now. I've always been amazed by the graphics, it reminds me of a suped up Zaxxon (giving creedence to the rumor that Zaxxon Motherbase 2000 was really a sequel to Viewpoint).

As previously mentioned Legend of Suckass Joe is BAAAAD (although I still want a copy for some reason). I also think Fight Fever might go down as one of the worst games ever made. The rest of the Neo Geo library has some so-so titles in it (like Ninja Combat), but I'd hardly call them bad.

Tempest

[skaar]

Magician Lord is pretty brutal.

[Garry Silljo]

I hated Mutation Nation. That and Burning Fight were very poor Beatem ups, a genre I usually adore. Magician Lord and Sengoku 1 were also ass. I haven't played most of the others that have been mentioned. I don't mind Top Hunter all that much.

[77punk]

I would have to put in my two cents and say that Jockey Grandprix was terrible as I own it complete and its a waste of space. Same with Ninja Combat. Fighters were the best on it.

[Tempest]

I would have to put in my two cents and say that Jockey Grandprix was terrible as I own it complete and its a waste of space.
Well in all fairness it was a gambling/betting game. It wasn't meant to be a regular video game.
