I had my garcade door open yesterday and a neighbor from a few houses down the street stopped by and started talking with my about my games. He said he had a Neo-Geo that his Girlfriend was bitching at him to get rid of out of his garage. He wanted to know if I wanted to buy it. I stopped by his place today to take a look.

He gave me a killer deal on it (we're talking 2 digits). As soon as the rain stops I'll be over there to get this baby home.

Here are some pics:

Very nice, that looks like its in great shape! I recently started looking for one myself, after I found out about the cart that has over 100 games I knew it would be a well rounded machine for my arcade.
 
neo geooo neo geeeeoooooooo!!!

damn dude. Killer deal. And the damn thing is in impressive shape.

Nice pickup! The bonus for your old neighbor is anytime he wants to play, he could theoretically just come on down to your place.
 
It's always the girlfriend/wife. If you want a good deal on cool stuff, look for heterosexual couples.
 
you better hope he isnt on ebay looking at prices..

"sorry man, there selling for 1000-2000 so if you wanna offer me around that its yours"
 
Nice Score!! Neo Geo's are lots of fun! The multi-carts are a great value, check them out!
Just let him know, that if he breaks up with that girlfriend...he's not getting the game back! :)

(I know I would drop her in heartbeat if she gave me crap about a game in the garage!!)
 
Looks in great shape, I have the "tall boy" beast V3 also.

Modify it for a flourescent strip and you will be fine.

I have a multi cart but actually like to configure it for 4 games for adult play since I have a mini neo geo for the kids. I ended up with a nice collection of carts cause I also operate.
 
I just got it home. I was really scared the guy was going to back out of the deal so as soon as the rain let up for a few minutes, I ran over there and grabbed it.

I'm totally stoked. I will most definitely get one of those 150 or so in one carts.

awesome find! i just put my dedicated 2-slot on location and i miss it a lot already. gonna have to put my 1-slot board and 138-in-1 in my spare dynamo cab so i have some Neo Geo goodness going on. always one of the favorite machines when friends come over or for a nice game of Nightmare in the Dark or Puzzle Bobble.
 
Yeah! Beautiful machine. I was thinking what everyone else was...the owner was going to pull out.

Good ole' V3 club. :)
 
I don't think the 150 in 1 carts work on that particular board. I think you're going to have to go with a 100-1 or 111-1 or something. I'm sure someone with more experience using the 150-1 with a 4 slot will chime in soon enough. In any case you got an awesome deal!
