I was going through my NeoGeo collection on my Switch the other day, and it dawned on me that SNK's extremely expensive console from 1990 might have the most consistent library of games quality-wise. While the latter half of the console's life lacked diversity in a big way (it became the de facto fighting game machine), that didn't take away from the quality of those titles. So much of what it did do in other genres was good to fantastic. It really doesn't have much shovelware/bad games.
I think the best word to describe the quality of the AES'' library: fun.
Here's just a taster-choice of some of the great games of the system.
Metal Slug
Magical Drop
King of Fighters 2002
Cyber-Lip
Neo Turf Masters
Last Resort
Windjammers
Fatal Fury Special
King of Fighter '98
Magician Lord
Shock Troopers
Samurai Showdown
Aero Fighters 2
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
The Super Spy
Robo Army
League Bowling
Baseball Stars 2
So what do you think? Is there an argument to be had about the MVS' library being the most consistent? If not, what's your pick?
