In Shock Troopers, players control one of eight squad members to fight through the forces of the evil "Bloody Scorpions" faction and rescue a scientist and his granddaughter. It was never officially released for the Neo Geo home system, available only as an arcade "MVS" cartridge -- and on the SNK Arcade Classics disc years later.

Amazing. A non-KOF game from later than 1995. You know, if SNK needs to generate revenue, they need to get cracking on this Neo*Geo station. They could easily turn this thing into a solid source of money, if they'd bother.

I think more retro games need to be released this way. Collections are bloated and take too long to load. Plus I don't have to pay for crap games I don't want. My PSP is currently playing seasons of Baseball Stars 2.

@ShingoEX yeah, they own ADK's IP now I believe. Not sure about Saurus, maybe.

I wonder if the net code will be better in this versus the other neo geo station games :/
