I found myself wondering if SNK could be the next publisher that Blaze is getting ready to announce. Seems like it an obvious partnership, right? I started digging deeper and figured out, to my surprise, that Blaze was involved with the Neo Geo X. Looking back at the NGX, I can see the Evercade in it. The buttons. The analog stick. I would even speculate they have the same screen. Crazy! I just hope they haven't burnt bridges with SNK. I'd really like to see a team-up another solid Indie publisher. Devolver, Double Fine, Annapurna, Night School, Flyhigh, any would make me squeal like a schoolgirl. The way SNK has been putting titles out on the current systems, it only makes sense that they would like some Evercade cash. lol I would imagine they would include 6-8 games per cart. That would be fun especially as I have not purchased any of them for the current systems just yet. But I have been tempted. lol I think the arrangement they did for XenoCrisis/Tanglewood will be something that Blaze will want to see how it turns out for them so that they can go to other indies and make more carts! So make sure you get your pre-order in on XenoCrisis/Tanglewood!

I ordered the Namco collections from VGP, too. I'm really hoping they come through.

If there are any SNK releases for the Evercade, I hope Blaze keeps up the curation. Otherwise if the lineup is left 100% in the hands of SNK we will get EXACTLY the same games as every other SNK compilation going back to the PS2 days. KoF '94, Metal Slug 1-3, etc. Not that those aren't great, it's just that there are so many great SNK/Neo-Geo games that SNK never puts on the comps.

That's glorious! I had a music room, that I'm trying to convert to a game room, that's presently stuck as a junk room. Tell me, what's my wife gonna say when I bring home an arcade machine? Speaking of beer, is Guinness the best beer in the world? It's currently my favorite. For years, it was Bass Ale. Then, they stopped importing to the US and put their name on some swill brewed here. I've been sober ever since...

I don't so much have a game room as I have a game shelf. Living in a tiny condo means not much room. As far as beer goes, blakestree what part of the US are you in? If you are anywhere near Wisconsin you need to make a trip and pick up some New Glarus Spotted Cow!

You guys' lighting game is on point! Wanna play "Guess what's on the shelf?" Saturn, 2600, N64, Xbox somethin', Gamecube?
Thanks for the recommendation. Though I feel microbrews are generally overrated, there are some damn fine ones, no doubt.

Bass is good - if you like it then try Smithwicks (not sure if it's exported) or Kilkenny - they are both ales.
