BTW can someone please explain to me why they would choose to keep all the original Inserts, stickers and so such? What profit can be made by keeping those to themselves?
Especially a good arcade like AI.Quote:

01. They buy up X number of carts that are kosher.
02. They freak up Y number of carts and they sell them, putting them on the marketplace. So Z, the number of nonfreaked carts, is equal to Z=X-Y.
03. Its a simple mathematical principle that X-Y<X if Y>0, which it obviously must be if Y number was sold.
04. There are less unfreaked, legit copies out there, and they are held by NGF. Which means they can be sold at higher prices and what not. SInce the people who bought the members of the Y set own freaked, non-kosher versions, their versions are functionally nullified in the marketplace... ie NGF eliminated "competition" that would've lowered the price they can get for their carts.
05. If they keep the original inserts instead of destroying them (they claim they are destroyed, but who knows), they can peddle cheap, crappy boots as originals and make original-type $$$ from them. Since they slap on original inserts, its impossible to tell if your cart is a boot unless you open it up... and if you dont know anything about all that you wont bother. If you do, and you tell NGF you want your money back, they give you the runaround. So, same as #4, your copy is nullified in the marketplace and NGF once again rules the market with their crappy boots or their X-Y supply of kosher carts.
In essence they try to create a monopoly for themselves. NGF is simply moving the supply curve in their favor, which is something that, well, every company tries to do. But NGF is messing with some very cool cartridges and ripping people off of a lot of money. Its pure greed, plain and simple.
Thank you DX, that was easily the most logical/reasonable explination I'd gotten for anything today. Though considering all the other explinations were coming from Gibber, that's not saying much.
It's in all likelyhood that Dion (probably Chris too) has some issues with reality. He's been living in lala land for many years (probably his whole life).Quote:

They peddle their bullshit to unknowing customers as legit, they ruin and destroy good, SNK-produced work in favor of their "corrected versions", and they are easily the two most arrogant vile assholes I have ever heard about. The pictures on their website of the CGE in Las Vegas tell the whole story - they sell their junk to ignorant, unknowing nerds, smiling and posing in an oddly homoerotic fashion.
And to that: Yes, They are NeoGeoFucked!
