Before receiving my neo geo X I just thought I'd find out what people'thought were the best/worst games available so far for the console and why.

Nice topic! Here's my list.
Best game that comes with the NGX-Real Bout Fatal Fury Special. Honorable mentions goes to Metal Slug, Samurai Shodown II, and Ninja Masters. Worst game that comes with the NGX-3 Count Bout. Dishonorable mention goes to World Heroes Perfect and Super Sidekicks. Best game that comes with the Megapack-The Last Blade. Honorable mentions go to KOF '96, MOTW and Shock Troopers Worst game that comes with the Megapack- World Heroes 2 Jet.

Yeah, I know I'm rough on the series. I just don't think they're good at all. That's just my opinion, though.

And that's the beauty of it. I've found in my years of Neo gaming that nearly everyone has very different tastes. It's why even after spewing about it for so very long, I'm never tired of talking about it. Here's a good case in point! I really like the World Heroes games, I was thrilled WHP was in the initial bundle! I only feel WHP was missing the deathmatch mode, which previous WH games had. Mega Pack comes along, BAM, WH2J, I get deathmatch mode back, I'm pleased as punch. You'll also find numerous topics here in which I vomit rainbows over the Super Sidekicks games. Another great case of getting the bundle, seeing SSK, and being all happy, but really wishing it was SSK3 (by far my fave in the series) The Mega Pack obliged me!
But to actually answer the question, The best game in the first release..hmm. Lots of good games out of the gate, some personal faves, like Samurai Shodown 2, Fatal Fury Special, But in the case of the NGX, I found myself getting more attached to games I've never played on my other Neo platforms for years already. That said, I'm gonna go with Mutation Nation, I've EASILY put more hours into that game here than any other (It actually prompted me to track down a copy for my AES) followed very closely by Art of Fighting, and Ninja Master's. Worst of the first batch? Easy. 3 Count Bout. It's the only game in the set I've actively avoided playing again.
Now, best of the Mega Pack.. Even harder. So many favourites here.. Shock Troopers, VERY closely followed by Samurai Shodown 3, and Art of Fighting 3. Worst in the Mega pack... umm.. That's a hard one, too. There wasn't any clear duds this time around for me here, just games I might play less than others. In that case, I'll give it to Sengoku. It's fun, but once beaten, I didn't feel like going back, like I still do with Mutation Nation.
PS; save function brought about in the Mega Pack update makes the difference between Baseball Stars 2 being great, and totally awesome. Pennant mode is where it's at for fun sports rage.

I always used to quite like 3 Count Bout on the arcade as a kid. It was all about the Gandhara lol

Now that I've had my NGX for about a month, I can say that the best games for it would be both Metal Slugs. They're fun and easy to get into, and they're some of the best looking Neo Geo games. Those and almost all the fighting games.
As for the worst games on it, I'd say "Puzzled", "3 Count Bout" and the 2 soccer games. I guess they're not really bad, but those would be my least favorite games for the NGX.

I'm a bit concerned now about further releases. If this whole debacle with SNK and Tommo is for real, that basically means that even if the license goes on for three more years, the best we can really hope for is three more mega packs. At best. Unless someone comes up with a way to hack the new firmware, that's going to be it

We're all a bit concerned. It would be nice to see more Mega Packs. I reckon there probably won't be one by the end of this year though. Hopefully there will be at least one more with a new firmware update in the future.

That's cool. Breakers Revenge reminds me of Street Fighter Alpha. I hope it'll be on the NGX some time.
