Delisting

Four Arcade Archives titles were delisted worldwide no later than the end of August 2020. Super Sidekicks 2 and 3, The Ultimate 11, and Neo Geo Cup ’98 were potentially delisted due to references to Taiwan and the Republic of China (ROC). After an update to the Arcade Archives version of Baseball Stars 2, also in late August, players noted alterations to the Taiwan-based teams in the game. Perhaps the work to update these four titles was too extensive, or SNK parent company Leyou simply chose to pull them from sale after the prompt coverage of Baseball Stars 2. As of late October 2020 neither Hamster, SNK, or Leyou have addressed the delistings or alterations.

The “ACA NEOGEO” series has faithfully reproduced many classic NEOGEO masterpieces.

Players can also compete against each other from all over the world with their high scores. Please enjoy the masterpiece that built a generation for video games. *This title is based off the MVS (NEOGEO for arcades) version.
