I have been building a CMVS to sell so I can finally buy my own arcade machine. I am tied between a Neo-29 candy cab and a Playchoice-10. Which do you guys like better? Thanks!

Maybe the NEO, Aren't Playchoice games pretty close to their console counterparts? I may be wrong because I get Vs. and Playchoice confused.

This is a debate??? Get the Neo-Geo, larger selection of games, better graphics, and you can find parts and carts a lot easier than for the Playchoice. Games for the Neo-Geo were even made until around 2005. 24 bit power house! I mean 16 + 8 bit power house!

^^What they said. It's not even a contest. PC-10 is NES in an arcade box with a timer.
Vs. UnisyStem / DualSystem machines are different (much better) than PC-10 and NES.

Hell, I'd just get a NEO for Metal Slug 2 (or 3)! But the Playchoice has some advantages. Contra, anyone? However, after thinking about it, I think I'd rather take Samurai Shodown, the KOF series, Shock Troopers, WindJammers, Fatal Fury, Puzzle Bobble, and the other 59 thousand awesome games over a few NES games in a cab.

Candy cab all the way. More flexible.

I found a PC-10 on Craigslist for 250... (think its dual monitor, but it looks a little short for one) I might just get that cause its so cheap. I mean, it needs a little work, but you can't beat that price. (the guy painted the sides blue- blasphemy!) Besides, I'll still have enough $ to buy an "American" big red Neo cab for 500... I guess I just lucked out here!

The candy isn't just for MVS, it will play vert and hori jamma too.
I am pretty sure most of them come with the 7 button CP ready
for Capcom and Neo games.

is playchoice contra any different than the five dollar console version?
now games in the nintendo vs series were different games than their console counterparts. shooting the dog in duck hunt for example
