Hello, another update to Game of the Week!

Last Resort is an R-Type-like shooter released in 1992. Its seems to be overlooked in the NeoGeo library, compared to popular titles such as Blazing Star, and Pulstar. With that said, its not that bad at all, be sure to give it a try!



The first stage of the game is very reminiscient of the anime, Akira, so that should appeal to fans. I've never played this myself, so join the discussion thread instead! ;D

AES/NGH Manual and Insert Scans added



Over the last few days I've been adding many more AES/NGH manual scans to the site that I scanned a while ago. These are all in pdf format. In total another 35 manuals have now been added bringing the total up to 50 available for download.

Another of our members videotech has offered to start scanning manuals too which I will upload to the site in the future. I know how time consuming it is to scan them so big thanks to videotech for helping with this. It's greatly appreciated.

Also videotech has started to scan AES inserts too. I've added a new download section for them and added the first one for SVC Chaos. The quality of the scan is excellent. Very useful if you are missing an insert or have a damaged one.

Hello! Time for a new Game of the Week!

World Heroes 2 is an improvement over the original, it added more characters, stages, and gameplay additions. Though, it still might be too quirky for some. ^^;



Unfortunately, I haven't played this yet. Instead, come join the discussion thread for goodies~!

New Game On The Way:

Looks like the NG:DEVTEAM (authors of The Last Hope) have announced a new homebrew game that they are working on for the Neo Geo. It's another shoot 'em up, this time vertically scrolling. It has apparently been mentioned in the latest issue of the German magazine M!Games. You can see some screenshots of it in this forum post. Good to see there is still some life left in the Neo, but I wonder how much this one will end up costing, as The Last Hope cart was a little pricey to say the least. Thanks to Reuart for the news!


New Poll:

Finally just a quick note to say that I changed the main site poll, as it has been a long time since it was updated, and I am curious to know how long people passing through here have been visiting NGFL. I'll try to update the poll a little bit more often again! :)


Also, this is my first proper news post in a while so I'd like to say thanks to eccentric cat and priest for keeping the Game of the Week and High Score Challenge going for all this time. Much appreciated guys! :)

Game of the Week time!

Samurai Shodown 2 is arguably the most popular NeoGeo game yet. And for good reason, its one of the best entries in the series yet! It also introduced fan favorites Genjuro Kibagami, and Cham-Cham.



Along with more characters, stages, refined gameplay, it also added a few secrets (chibi form, anyone? ;3) Its generally regarded as the best in the series, due to its balance, and lack of gimmicks, such as the Bust/Slash system for the later entries. ^^;

Late Game of the Week is late... But its here!

Panic Bomber is a puzzle spinoff of the Bomberman series. There's almost no story (was there any at all?), but the game really is addicting, just like any other puzzle game! :D



I recommend it if you like puzzle games. It takes a while to get used to waiting for the flame bomb, but its oh so satisfying when you finally unleash your horde of chain bombs!! >;D

*ahem*... Come join the discussion thread for more info!

Game of the Week updated again! Money Puzzle Exchanger is this Game of the Week!



Its very similiar to Magical Drop, except this one requires basic math skills, since it involves money. Its the basic premise. ^^;

I haven't played this yet, to be honest. Instead, come join the discussion thread for videos and more info! ;D

Hello again! Sorry for the delays. Please bear with me. x_x

Burning Fight was one of the early Beat 'em Up games on the NeoGeo. It wasn't particularly well noted, since it was essentially a Final Fight clone. ^^;



Duke would make cameo appearances NeoGeo Battle Colisseum, and King of Fighter 2000. And... to be honest, I've never played this. Instead, come join the discussion thread! ^^;

Game of the Week is back~! Yay! ^^

Seems Ganryu was the most popular on the poll. I've never played it though, to be honest. ^^;

Sunday = Game of the Week. :3

The Sengoku series is unfairly marked as mediocre. Though, Sengoku 2 isn't one to turn heads, if you didn't like the first one, you might not like this one either... ^^;



Ah, but if you liked the first one, you'll definitely find something to like here! If you're not sure, come join the discussion thread for info!

Hello all! Super Sidekicks is the new Game of the Week today!

There aren't that many sports games on the NeoGeo, and... to be honest, I don't have much to say about it. I've never played this before. ^^;
