I can hear them already once it comes out... "Of course Darksoft's Neo multi is way better than the NeoSD, look how much longer it took him to finish it."

:D
 
After earning enough money from his paper route, my older brother bought an NES for me. I'll admit, I was quite the shit talking Nintendo kid. Back then, beefing over video game platforms sometimes meant a fist fight. Though secretly, I was jealous of those Sega fuckers because I loved me some Space Harrier. If my family wasn't so poor, I would have definitely campaigned for a Sega Master System. I'll admit that too. But we could barely afford the one. During the next console generation, I was old enough to have a job and had some cash to feed my entertainment needs. I went behind enemy lines and bought a Genesis while waiting for the SNES, satiating my Space Harrier needs. Being a Nintendo fan, shameful sparks of Sega love began then too. As bits doubled from 16 to 32 and 64, I caved in and picked up Sony's upstart console entry to hold me over till the N64 was released. Grabbed a Saturn from a buddy around that time when he was dumping it for cheap. In my late teens, I remember reading about a new digital media format that was coming out just over the horizon. Players for that format were starting at that time around $400. Way out of my price range at that point in life. I wanted one of those players really bad because anime producers heavily adopted that format. I remember walking into Tower Records, drooling at the titles I was not able to watch in digital glory. When I heard the PS2 was going to have DVD playing capabilities, I damn near did cartwheels. I had eyes only for the PS2 knowing I was going to kill two birds with one console. I bought a Dreamcast on 9/9/99 anyway. Picked up the OG Xbox and Gamecube a year after the PS2. After that, I was at a point in life where I earned enough money that my entertainment needs were a small part of my budget (or smaller, rather). Also, it became easier without Sega in the mix, and yet I am still pained that they are gone. For like 13 years, I haven't given a second thought about buying an Xbox just to play Halo, or a Playstation just to play MGS. No big deal really at this point in life. Even when I see mom's grandkids play video games with their friends that have other consoles, like there is none of that vitriol that I grew up with. They are just happy for being able to play SFV after lots of GoW or Halo. Not even the Nvidia or AMD guys bicker in the PC world. Those guys hop fences like every 10 months. The arcade hobby is the only video game arena where there is still territorial pissings over platform. It's not just the Neo Geo guys either. For US arcade snobs, be honest, you guys are old. Save the grumpiness for the next decade and the ones after that where there will place set aside just for that. It will be that empty stool at the end of the table in that lonely bar where they know your name, but really don't know you or care to.

Anyone that has the NeoSD, whether because they gave in from waiting for Darksoft's or are fine with what it offers, enjoy it. And if you're still waiting for Darksoft's Multi, realize that you aren't descended from weak people. Afterall, you have grit if you're still playing video games when all around you have taken up golf.

EDIT: Hey @Shin OmegaZOR Prime, none of this is directed at your question. Darksoft will answer that, I am sure. Just responding here to that FB thread.

Well what did you expect on facebook?
Hell, even some other forums... :thumbdown:

I don't understand why its a problem for someone that both devices exist?

@jassin000 : you're right about that. I was just getting back into face book and decided to take a moment to respond to a comment directed at me after that fool's forced opinion.That was all...I quit the NG.com forums some years ago because of childish elitism among them over there. That guy Rot especially seems to rub people the wrong way :thumbdown:

True about the SNES flash carts! You already know why they make an issue over the options of having choice in this case for the Neo...

Choice is a beautiful thing, as you know! ^^
 
A new firmware has been made that should allow 100% compatibility with unibios. It didn't like the slot change feature and would crash. It requires a boot loader update so I have to do the updates on the protos. Hopefully it's the last hurdle.
 
Thinking... since its a software problem and you have confirmed that.

Shouldnt it be time to put in the preorder to make the physical carts, since there will be no more design changes on the actual hardware?

According to @Mitsurugi-w post, the fix required a new bootloader. A new bootloader is not trivial for end customers to upgrade.

Calm down there son, your gonna blow your load too quick! :D

It'll be ready when they deem it ready to go.

From my short time here I see that these guys are perfectionists and I fully appreciate that .
