SICK MY DUCK AUSTRALIA!!!!!!!
History
The original arcade system, called the Multi-Video System (MVS), can hold up to 6 game cartridges, depending on the type of motherboard used. Since the game uses cartridges, converting games is easy, due to the fact the control panel can be opened up and the cartridges can simply be swapped.
Due to the MVS' popularity, SNK soon released the AES, the home console version of the Neo-Geo. However, only 3 million home consoles have been sold, due to the extraordinarily high price of the console and the games.
In 1995, the Neo-Geo CD was released, in an attempt to sell it for a more mainstream price. Though it was cheaper than the AES, the Neo-Geo CD was plagued by slow loading times, which resulted in its eventual demise.
SNK manufactured Neo Geo consoles and games through 2004, making it the longest-lasting of the classic video game consoles.
