lol ;D

But anyways... what type of lead are you hooking it up with? Generally you can get around this problem if you TV doesn't support proper NTSC (and a lot of TV's over here don't), but you need to be using an RGB scart lead. If you are using a normal RF aerial lead or a composite scart lead then you will get black and white.

I used to have this problem on all foreign games on the PSOne and with import consoles years ago when I had my old TV, and unfortunately that one didn't do RGB scart (it was old though). As soon as I got a new TV and hooked it up with an RGB lead it was fine however. Only problem is, I don't know the best place to buy an RGB lead for the Neo from... there's perhaps Telegames near where I live, but I don't know how much they charge. Try asking over at neo-geo.com as I'm sure one of the UK peeps there can help you out

NOOOOOoooo!!

DON'T BUY ANY CABLES OR LEADS FROM TELEGAMES!!! At least not Telegames UK! I bought a so called RGB scart lead from them a few years back when I converted my neo to 60hz. It was terribly made - flimsy, and they didn't even bother to bind the endings. One of the connection pins to the neo was in the wrong place and so they had bent it into place!!

And they charged me 20 squid for it! It stopped working last week. Very bad considering that since I got it its not been used much over the years - only when I get Neo fever like now - lol.

I bought scart lead from ravengames just a few days ago - It was very well put together, and good quality, and costs £15 squid.

Don't get me wrong - I've nothing against Telegames - I bought Last Blade 2 from them brand new (Pretty good deal for 250 squid no?) around the time it came out - but their accessories are naff.

Cheers,

Channa.

Hehe... well I haven't personally bought any cables from them only a few carts and some Neo sticks, so I don't know personally. Totally forgot about Raven Games to be honest
