I have been a member of the Neogeo community for a long time now, and I wish, wish someone would have informed me just how fast the CDZ loads. If you have your choice between a Toploader, frontloader, AES, arcade, or CDZ, it is just plain silly in my mind not to get a CDZ. There are no loads!. Real Bout Fatal Fury 2 which use to load forever, now loads in seconds. It is a joy, an absolute joy, to play. Take the fact that the games are really cheap, you can still buy them new!, and it comes with some of the best stereo and video the neo has to offer and I don't see how you can get better.
You may ask, but what about breaking down? Rare. And my friends, if it happens, it is well worth the risk. The money you will save NOT buy carts can be spent towards buying a new CD system if necessary, but that is a rare, rare occurence. The CDZ outshines all the others in graphics, sounds, and price (and now speed!) that you won't regret taking the chance.
I know for me its CDZ or no neo from now on.
