NeoSD PRO – Vengeance Hunters Edition
https://retrorgb.com/neosd-pro-vengeance-hunters-edition.html
Let’s be real: if you’re shellin’ out $700 for a single game, you’re either a hardcore Neo Geo collector… or you really, really love beat ’em ups with style.
Stone Age Gamer’s new Vengeance Hunters bundle pairs the full NeoSD Pro (a slick, reprogrammable ROM cart) with a digital copy of the game—$50 more than just buying the cart alone. So if you already own a NeoSD Pro? Congrats, you just bought a very expensive USB stick with one game on it.
The twist? The standalone Vengeance Hunters ROM cart used to cost $400—basically a NeoSD Pro with one game preloaded. Now they’re bundling the same cart with a digital download, but still charging $700. It’s like buying a Tesla and being told the key fob is sold separately… but only works with one song.
Sure, it’s clever to reuse hardware. But when the physical version costs more than a Switch or Steam copy ($20), you start wondering if this is collectible art—or just a very shiny tax on nostalgia.
Bottom line? If you need that authentic AES/MVS experience, go for it. Otherwise? Steam. Switch. YouTube demo. Your wallet will thank you.
