Neo Geo CD games worth playing?

Recommended Posts

There are two new Neo Geo CD emulators for Dreamcast that are supposed to run pretty well, and I was wondering what games from the system are worth playing, as I never had the system but thought it might be fun to teach my DC some new tricks. Thanks for any advice y'all might have.

I never played with Neo Geo CD, but I heard that King of Fighters is a fine fighting franchise.

Sorry that I can't be all that helpful.

There's the sequel to Out of This World aka Another World: 'Heart of the Alien'. Eric Chahi wasn't really involved but I found it to be very nice.

Hmm, the sequel was only made to MegaDrive or SNES, if I remember correctly?

It was on Sega CD. Not a bad little romp I suppose (the intro movie showing what the alien friend was doing the whole time you were running through the first game is fantastic), but the game is much more difficult and the ending is pretty bleak, though probably more realistic than what most games would do.

Thanks for the advice, although the main conclusion that I'm drawing is…

No one has ever actually played NeoGeoCD.

I can't seem to find any used games anywhere anyway. If I try that Kings of Fighting one, I'll let y'all know how it is.

World Heroes 2

King of Fighters 97

It was released on the Mega-CD.

And if you can get it, Samurai Showdown 4 is one of the best beat-em-ups, ever.

I've just seen a Neo Geo CD on sale in a Gamestation in Cambridge... Am still drooling.
