In The Hunt port coming to NeoGeo?

[hatmoose]

In The Hunt is like a rare and exotic beast, the arcade board is moonbeams, even the console ports are impossible to get.

Playing this on NeoGeo is as close as I’ll ever get to the real thing.

They certainly picked the right hardware to port it to! Imagine if Gunforce II made it over too…

Interesting feature is to switch the sound from Neo Geo to PS1 via Dip switch.
Hopefully this game will be completed.

"Neo Geo"? Did they rearrange the soundtrack for the Neo Geo? I assume it just has a recording from the arcade.

Not sure if anyone else is working on this already, thought it would be cool to start collecting arts to make physical versions

AES sticker (89mm wide x 84mm high, 2mm radius on the corners)
AES Snapcase insert
MVS Sticker
MVS ShockBox insert
MVS NeoSleeve
Others?

Oh man, I hope they add even more slow down to it, like MS2, really make it FEEL like a NG game!

M92 multi has it. Most m92 boards can be converted to it with a rom and jumper swap. Still would be nice to play on neo.
Great game.

The Good
AES mode with fun menus and etc
Unibios support with cheats and etc
Choice of PS1 or arcade music (maybe?)

The compromise
Reduced colour palette (NeoGeo = 4096 colours, M92 = 32bit)
Reduced resolution (NG = 320x224, M92 384x256)

Funnily enough, my shitty, small home town in South Dakota had a local pizza place with a small room in back with arcade cabs and one of them was In The Hunt. Really makes you wonder how many boards are in forever-storage or destroyed. They also had Cabal which is a surprisingly fun trackball game you don't hear about too often. What a nostalgic era.
