I used to play the Neo Geo in Solid Gold too. I remember playing a side scrolling beat 'em up called "Mutation Nation". At the time there was nothing to come close to it in terms of graphics. Also Leisureland in Bridge Street used to have a few Neo Geo cabs, and at various points it had some great games like Samurai Shodown 1&2, the Art of Fighting, King of the Fighters 94, and there always seemed to be a footy game of some description there (Super Sidekicks I think). I wish that place still had videogames
