>>499952493Is it really that far fetched? NeoGeo was a premium console, which is likely why you did not see it. It was very expensive at the time, retailing for around 650 USD, so it was a specialty/enthusiast item. I imagine in many areas, you would have to special order for it.
But yes, you could get new NeoGeo games up until 2004.
On the manual for the AES (home) version of SSVSP, they even thank their fans for 14 years of support. In English. You could get it in USA. Probably more Americans owned the home version than Mexicans, now that I think about it.
They have home versions of KOF2002, Garou, Samurai Shodown, etc.
The home version of Garou is very rare and expensive now because it was produced in such small quantities.
I don't see why you think I'd make this up or what I'd gain from lying somehow.
