A popular gaming company in the late 80s and early 90s. They are most know for the NeoGeo
MVS. Which made arcade operaters happy because of the cost and the fact that more than one game could fit in the Cabinet. Unfortunatley the company's worst decision was the Neo Geo AES. The problems high cost for the system and games for the system. The Neo Geo CD fixed these problems but added the load times (which took forever).
SNK is known for fighting games such as Fatal Fury,
King of Fighters,
Samurai Showdown, and Art of Fighting. They also have other popular games such as
Metal Slug and the popular Bust a Move or Puzzle Bobble on the MVS. They have recently falled down on hard times in 2001 because of bankeruptcy. But suprisingly re-emerged as SNK-Playmore. Some games you can find from them are Metal Slug 5, the ever popular
Snk vs Capcom: Chaos, and the recent throwback game King of Fighters 2003. Most of your SNK fans are fanboys that are VERY FUCKING GOOD AT FIGHTING GAMES.
