Memories of Arcades
Thinking about the lavish Dreamcast VMU's on offer got a few cogs whirring as to the Neo Geo's memory card. It came with stylish silver or gold lettering on a sort of pseudo marble effect - what else for the Rolls Royce of home consoles? But the real home of hardcore badge getter must have been to take your top scores and save games on the card into the arcade to continue the quest in front of the coin op cognoscenti with as much kudos deserved as coins spent. Genki would love to hear from anyone who can claim the glory of having used their home memory card down the arcades. Proper class that mate!
