New Retro Arcade: Neon is my new Life.

Ok - HUGE caveat:

1. New Retro Arcade: Neon does NOT come with arcade machines loaded with games to play. You must modify them yourself with emulators and roms which must be acquired on your own.

2. This game is VERY buggy right now, it almost should have been an early access game.

3. This game is very much intended to be modified to suit your needs, but requires you to have some decent problem solving and research skills to figure out how to work all of the features to make it shine. It is not for the feint of heart .. or 'mind' in this case.

Despite those points I am still recommending this title.

NRA-N is the BEST emulation lobby you will ever encounter. The immersion factor is THROUGH THE ROOF on this one, you get to walk around an 80's-90's style arcade environment which includes many interactable features and mini-games such as the ticket-style games you would typically find in an arcade like: ski-ball, basketball hoop shooting, darts, air hockey.

Then, with the NRA-N configuration tool you can add:

Each arcade can emulate a game of your choosing, so that when you walk up to it and interact it loads the game and it plays on the screen IN the environment! You dont even leave NRA-N .. if you want to stop playing that arcade machine .. just turn around and walk away to another .. start that one up and play. The feeling you get when doing this will flash you right back to the 90's when you slammed your fist down after losing at a game and the continue screen appears and starts to count down.

There are game cartridges littered throughout the environment, using the config tool you can make these games emulate any SNES/Genesis/NES or other console game, instead of just interacting with it, you have to physically pick it up and put it into the game console and it will start playing on a CRT screen. Just think, in 2016, you can play Super Metroid on a CRT screen on your top tier PC in VR.

There are cassette tapes littered all over the place, you can use the config tool to load these up with any MP3 you want and then plug them into a cassette player to play whatever song you want to set the mood.

There are VHS tapes you can set to movie files so you can watch Aliens .. or Terminator 2 on a CRT TV! - note however this feature is currently buggy for some people. I have gotten it to work but without sound, still trying to mess with it .. but the tech is there! .. it should work eventually!

You can modify posters, you can modify the graphics of the arcade machines .. the graphics of the cartridges.

Or you can just chill and throw darts at a wall.

NRA-N is my new life. It's still janky .. its still being worked on despite being released .. but I dont CARE! .. ITS AWESOME! and I still recommend it in spite of its flaws.

The publisher for this game is also responsible for attempting to suppress negative reviews for the microtransactions in its other games, namely Hypercharge: Unboxed

After I posted the review below,

https://steamproxy.com/profiles/76561198041571110/recommended/1305040?snr=1_5_9__402

they first attempted to suppress the review via a fraudulent report

https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2832251965

and then banned me from the Steam forums literally without listing a reason for an old post that was literally:

"Thanks I'm looking forward to it!" (in response to plans for future content)

https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2832250632

The behavior of this company is frankly unethical.

Have there been many advancements or changes in the last 5 yrs? Or is it about the same? I just saw some videos on youtube and it looks great, I just don't want to have to spend 8 hrs getting it all setup. Hopefully that has gotten easier.

Yea, you can find many of the ones I made in the artists gallery in the forums.

I used some NRA-N pack I saw on reddit. Are you making cabinets yourself?
Tenka 10/ago./2017 às 14:31 
@justintg nice dude! .. Sorry if I havent replied to messages or anything, I had gone a ski trip over the last several days and the steamapp appears to ignore certain messages.

Hey, Tenka. I added you due to seeing you all over To the Top. Here's my home cabinet: https://youtu.be/bbcUzyfMtPc?t=13m15s

I haven't put nearly as much work into NRA-N but need to.

Right?! .. I am literally building my dream arcade. I get to relive my 12 yr old self! Play all of those games again .. but as if you took a time machine back 20 years and actually went to a real arcade. It's great!

The fact that I can use my own ROMS make this a buy for me.
