Message: [QUOTE="Isegrim, post: 210948, member: 569592"] Decades back in the Philippines, I saw this weird CD in the market when they once sold pirated software in CD-R's It was labelled King of Fighters, Art of Fighting, Fatal Fury, it had a weird listing of all the games I regularly see in the arcades and malls. I was a big fan of fighting games back then, Street Fighter and The King of Fighters mostly, and would often hang out in arcades and watch amazing head to head fights in the fighting games there. I also collected fighting games in my SNES and other consoles but couldn't buy as much as I wanted due to how expensive the carts are. And yet, the weird CD is claiming it had all the games I saw in the arcades. So I bought the CD, found a program there called NeoRageX fiddled with it with some files (ROMS) containing the names of several arcade games and BANG, I was playing King of Fighters in all it's arcade glory on my computer. For years, I've always wished I could own a Neo-Geo which was the machine that ran all the SNK fighting games including KOF but it was very expensive at the time (and still is) and so were the huge carts containing the games. Each cart cost hundreds of U.S. dollars (even more so now as collector's items). And now, I was playing all of the games right in my computer coming from a cheap CD that cost just as much as a fast food meal. From then on, I started to learn about emulation. [/QUOTE]
